One line under the averages: what this second held, the run so far, and how the counters share the second.
now 0 run 940 in 956s 2 tubes · interleave 0.50s (99%)now is what was counted in the last second, across the counters.
run is every count since the service started, and the seconds it took. Divide one by the other for the session's rate so far.
The note at the end appears with more than one counter. Each counter answers once a second; two of them can answer at the same moment or half a second apart. interleave 0.50s is the gap between their answers and the percentage is how close that is to ideal. Interleaved, the pair samples the room twice a second. averaged means they are answering together, and 1 of 2 tubes averaged means one has stopped and the figures are from the other alone.
