AnalyserChannelType defines two mandatory FunctionalGroups described in 5.2.2.1: Configuration and Status. StreamType defines seven mandatory FunctionalGroups described in 5.2.3.1: Configuration, Status, AcquistionSettings, AcquisitionStatus, AcquisitionData, ChemometricModelSettings, and Context. The following tables describe example sets of Parameters that can be defined on the AnalyserChannel and Stream of a ParticleSizeMonitorDevice, in this case using Laser Diffraction technology.
