For both front panel and remote programming, the window can be set to any
value from 0.0% to 10%, where 0.0% represents no window being applied.
For voltage, current, and resistance, the filter window is expressed as a percent
of range. For example, on the 10V range, a 10% window means that the filter
window is ±1V.
For temperature, the filter window is expressed as a percent of the maximum
temperature reading. The maximum temperature depends on which
thermocouple is being used. For example, for a Type J thermocouple, the
maximum reading is 760°C; a 10% window means that the filter window is
±76°C. For temperatures below 0°C, the overflow point is -200ºC, so a 10% filter
window is ±20ºC. If using ºF units, a 20% filter window is calculated as follows:
9/5 x 20 = 36. The filter window for the 20% window is ±36ºC.
