Elapsed stage time is compared with the declared coherence window. Exact arithmetic here means exact results for the stated model inputs; measured inputs still carry uncertainty and significant-figure limits.

Elapsed stage time is compared with the coherence window

The same window is kept fixed; each row changes the declared stage durations.

m=TwindowTelapsedm=T_{\text{window}}-T_{\text{elapsed}}
Inside the windowElapsed time is below the window.prepctrlreadwindowprep -> ctrl -> readinside window

Three elapsed times bracket the window edge

The middle row exactly uses the whole window. The last row exceeds it.

The final row misses the coherence window

The helper computes the elapsed time and the displayed fit state from the same durations.
