change the cursor position and or to change the value for the

Fluctuation count
NOTE
• The range of values for the fluctuation count is from 0.0% to 9.9%, with
the default value at 1.0%.
• If the input raw signal readings are higher or lower than the fluctuation
count of the previous smoothed signal readings, the smooth function
calculations will reset.
For example, a smooth function with a 5 V signal and a fluctuation
count of 1.0% will only smooth the input raw signal to the existing
smooth calculation if the input signal is between 4.9 V and 5.1 V. The
next input signal will then be compared to the newly smoothed signal.
If the input signal is out of the set fluctuation count range of the
smoothed signal, the smooth function calculation will reset and restart
at the out-of-range signal.
• The smooth function will also reset if the range of the signal changes
when the smooth calculation is running. For example, when the signal
range jumps to the 100 V range from the 10 V range.
• You can also manually restart the smooth function by pressing MinMax
for more than one second.
• Setting the fluctuation count to 0.0% will disable the fluctuation count.
It is recommended that the fluctuation count is enabled.
