Minimum Time
The Minimum Time field enables you to specify a fixed minimum time
interval (in milliseconds) between the start of an inspection and the
availability of inspection results. The effect is to delay the inspection results
in order to ensure that they are always available to a host system on a timely
basis. The valid range for the time interval is 0 to 5000 milliseconds.
The relation of the inspection start to the inspection results without a fixed
minimum time interval (that is, a setting of 0) is shown below:

Samples
The Samples field enables you to select an appropriate “sample” size,
ranging from 0 to 65535, for each toolset in a configuration. This value
determines the number of “sample” inspection results that the CVIM2 system
must acquire in order to calculate statistical data for a particular tool. (Note
that this function applies only to a tool for which statistics collection can be
selected, such as a window tool, and for which the
Statistics box has been
checked in the Options selection panel for that tool.)
