In the past, user selected e.g. 20 sek integration time and the telescope then did 20 target + 20 ref, i.e. total 40 ek. This is mentioned in Sect. 2.4.2 in the documentation. However, the new version of the software instead divides the value given into signal and ref. I.e., if the user choose 20 sek, the telescope will do 10 sek on target and 10 sek on ref. This is likely better, but the documentation has to be updated (in English and Swedish) to reflect this when the new version is introduced.
