Setting the smooth function
The smooth function is a special short-term average that differs from the average
function of the MinMax operation. The smooth function filters noise and stabilizes
readings. The average function of the MinMax operation is considered as a
long-term average as it uses all of the readings to perform averaging.
The smooth function has a fixed number of readings that will be used for
averaging. This fixed number is known as the number of points which you can set
from the Utility menu. The smooth function also includes a fluctuation count
which limits the range of the readings that can be used for the averaging.
Smoothed readings obtained using the smooth function are easier to read as the
readings are stabilized.
The smooth function and the average function of the MinMax operation are
independent functions and mutually exclusive in which they cannot occur at the
same time.
When the smooth function is enabled, the AVG annunciator will be flashing to
indicate its ON state. The smooth function will start its calculations using the
parameters set in the Utility menu.
The smooth function calculation can be restarted by pressing [MinMax] for more
NOTE
than one second.
Press [ ] or [ ] to enable or disable the smooth function ("on" or "oF").
