• The unit for the slope of the ramp is "percentage of the measuring range per minute" (%/
min).
• For a negative slope of the ramp: The measured value is continuously decreased until it
reaches 0%.
• For a positive slope of the ramp: The measured value is continuosly increased until it
reaches 100%.
