INSTRUCTIONS
power
spectral
is
output. Parameter
3 is equal
to the log base
2 of
A where A is
the number
of
bins
to
be averaged.
For example,
if
there are
1024
samples in
the
originaltime
series data
and the
resulting
512
spectral bins are
averaged
in
groups
of 8
(Parameter
3
=
3
=
log
base 2
of
B) then 63
(=5724
1)
averaged bins will
be
produced.
PARAMETER
4
defines which input
location
will
contain the first
value
at the original
time series
data. Once
the FFT
program
has
executed,
this
location willcontain
the first resulting
value.
PARAMETER
5 is
a scaling
multiplier
that is
applied to
the
FFT
results
(i.e.,
after the FFT
cornputation has
been done).
The
multiplier
is
not
applied to the DC
component.
MEMORY REQUIREMENTS
The
number of Input Memory Locations
allocated
must
be
enough
to
accommodate
the
N
sampled
values,
where N
is
defined
under
Parameter 1. The
number of lntermediate
Memory Locations
allocated must be
greater
than
or
equal
to
(N/8
+ 2).
lf insutficient
Input
or
Intermediate Memory
Locations
have
been
allocated, the
datalogger will
flag
an E60
or E04,
respectively.
NOTE:
The
21X has
1
lntermediate
Location that is
not available for
use
by
Processing
or Output
Instructions
so
the number
of lntermediate
Locations allocated must exceed
the
indicated total requirement by
at
least 1.
FFT RESULTS WITHOUT BIN
AVERAGING
When
no bin averaging
is specified, the FFT
results may
be calculated
in terms of the
real/imaginary
components, the
magnitude/phase
components, or
the
power
spectra. The rest
of this section deals with
the
DC
component, bin frequency, and
the FFT
results
just
mentioned.
An example
showing
each
of
the
possible
results is
given
in
Section
8.8.1.
DC COMPONENT
Before the FFT
is applied,
the average
of the
originaltime
series data is subtracted
from
each
value. This is done
to maintain the resolution
the math
in
the rest
of the FFT calculations.
lf the real and imaginary
or the
magnitude
and
phase
results are specified
by
Parameter
2
the
DC
component is the
average of the original
time series data. lf
power
spectra
results
are
specified, the DC
component is equal
to the
square
of the average
of the original time series
data
times
2N.
The DC
component
is
stored in the first input
location
specified by
Parameter 4 which
corresponds
with
the frequency at 0 Hz
(bin
0).
BIN FREQUENCY
The
band
width
or the frequency covered
by
each bin is equalto F/N where
F is
the sample
frequency in Hz
(1/scan
interval in seconds).
The frequency
(f;)
of any
given
bin iwhere i
ranges from 0 to
(N/2)-1
is
given
by the
equation:
(i-1
.F)/N
<
fi<
(i.F)/N
For
example,
given
that the
power
spectra resu
shows
that
the energy
peak
of
a signal falls in
bin
'128
when
it is sampled
at a
frequency of 10
Hzlor
1024
samples,
the frequency of the sig

REAL AND
IMAGINARY
COMPONENTS
The result of the
FFT
when
the
real
and
imaginary option is
selected
is N/2 input
locations
containing
the realcomponents
(R;)
followed
by
N/2 input locations containing
the
imaginary components
(l;).
There
is
a
real
and
an imaginary component for
each
bin. The
value
of
ivaries from 1
to
N/2. The realand
imaginary results
at each frequency
i,
are
related
to the
magnitude
(M;)
and
phase
(P,)
as
shown
below:
Ri
=Mi
*cosP;
li
=Mi
*sinPi
where
M; is
the magnitude
and
P; is
the
phase
the signal in degrees. Magnitude is half of the
10-8
