delay
With certain samples, it may occur that the conductivity rises in steps, to a
small degree, long before the actual induction time (e.g. through side reac-
tions or with volatile compounds). To prevent this rise being evaluated as an
endpoint, the user can delay the evaluation or suppress it for a certain range.
Stability time
The stability time is the time which is necessary in order to attain a specified
conductivity change Delta Kappa.

The entry of an evaluation delay or evaluation suppression does not have
any effect on this evaluation mode. In all cases the time from the start point
of the measurement is calculated.

"Curves" tab
The scaling of the x and y axis can be defined here. The settings have an
effect on the expression of the curves, but not on the measurement and
evaluation. After completing the determination, the scaling for single and
live graphs can be changed again in the determination overview.
