3.6.2 Log period

The Log Period is the specified length of time between writing the calculated
accumulated volume to record. The user may record volumes as often as every
minute and as seldom as every hour. The default is 60 minutes. The G4 EX can
normally store 960 log periods (40 days x 24 logs). A five minute log period will
consume available memory in eight days.

AGA-7 or ISO-5167. Once the calculation type has been determined, the user
may toggle specific factors on or off depending upon their availability (see Table
3–1).
