3.1.7 Noise filter
3.1.7.1 Fltr.Time Con. Time constant τ for measured value
attenuation; after a jump in
the measuring variable, the output
measured value reaches about 99% of
the new setpoint after 5*τ
Does not affect totalizers.

Suppress Time
Suppress Limit
Values outside a tolerance range are
evaluated for the duration of the blanking
time with high attenuation.
Time of effect of increased attenuation (0
s = blanking off)
Tolerance range = floating average +
tolerance value
