Test Results

The test results in Figure 3-1 show the captured ADC waveform and Figure 3-2 shows the sensor readings as the device starts operation from an initial off state. The circled section shows the absolute TOF values when the machine is off. At this point, the gas inside the pipe is simply air. Since air is approximately 21% oxygen, you can use this as a calibration point for the system.

The pulses from the pulsed oxygen concentrator can be seen in the Waveforms Window. In order to extract the oxygen concentration, save the data as a .cvs file and do the conversion in a spreadsheet.
