Security especially in the fields of IoT, industrial automation and critical infrastructure is paramount nowadays and a hot research topic. In order to ensure confidence in research results they need to be reproducible. In the past we reported [18] that in many publications important information such as details about the equipment used are missing. In this paper we report on our own experiments that we run to verify the parameters reported in the datasheets that came along with our experimental equipment. Our results show that there are significant discrepancies between the datasheets and the real world data. These deviations concern accuracy of positions, movements, duration of laser shots etc. In order to improve reproducibility of results we therefore argue on the one hand that research groups verify the data given in datasheets of equipment they use and on the other hand that they provide measurement set-up parameters in globally accepted units such as cm, seconds, etc.
