TPS 7.2  DECLARED PARAMETERS
purpose: ACQUISITION WINDOW, N, CANARY RATE; where a change is made
governs: 7.2 | version: 0.1.0 (proposed) | class: instruction artifact
audience: operator, agent

7.2.1  Declared by the declaring authority on 2026-09-13. [I-135]
7.2.2  ACQUISITION WINDOW  5 minutes, server time (D18). Consequence: the
       agents' polling interval is at most 2.5 minutes, since the window
       is not less than twice it (see 5.8.5). [I-132]
7.2.3  N                   One operation per fail type in the
       certification suite in force (CR4): N equals the number of probe
       types. The suite as recorded carries six probe types, so N = 6
       until the suite changes (see 5.14). [I-133]
7.2.4  CANARY RATE         One probe per five work blocks (CR6) (see
       5.14). [I-134]
7.2.5  TMS parameters (STEP CONVENTION, k, N_x, local yardsticks) are per
       container and are not declared here (see 2.4.5). [I-080]
7.2.6  These values live in TPS. Changing any value is a revision of TPS;
       an implementation follows the published value. [I-135] [AUTHORED]
       NOTE: the wording of the implementation's own parameter line is
       an O8 item (tps_inventory G-06).
