* The error in our graphs is because we chose to follow the manual and use the lowest number of channels. We used only 256. If we had used more channel we would have gotten more measurements, and therefore a better result. Despite this, all of our graphs except the 800ms and 1000ms graphs match the Poisson distribution closely. | * The error in our graphs is because we chose to follow the manual and use the lowest number of channels.
