			 ways in which the motor vehicle pollution control system does not meet the
			 criteria of OAR 340-0256-0380 and 0390.
(f) Exhaust gas sampling algorithm. The
			 analysis of exhaust gas concentrations will begin 10 seconds after the
			 applicable test mode begins and will be analyzed at a rate of two times per
			 second. The measured value for pass or fail determinations will be a simple
			 running average of the measurements taken over five seconds.
(g) Pass or fail determinations. A pass or
			 fail determination will be made for each applicable test mode based on a
			 comparison of the applicable standards listed in OAR 340-256-0400  and
			 340-256-0420  and the measured value for HC and CO. A vehicle will pass the test
			 mode if any pair of simultaneous values for HC and CO are below or equal to the
			 applicable standards. A vehicle will fail the test mode if the values for
			 either HC or CO, or both, in all simultaneous pairs of values are above the
			 applicable standards.
(h) Void test
			 conditions. If the measured concentration of CO plus CO2 falls below the
			 applicable standards listed in OAR 340-256-0380  and 340-256-0390, or if the
