Explanation:  Using the smoothing factor, quickly fluctuating analog values can be 
smoothed to a greater or lesser extent depending on the parameter setting. 
It may then be possible to set a lower value for the send trigger

The smoothing factors are identical to the smoothing factors that are 
configured for some S7 analog input modules. The smoothing in the 
channel functions according to the same formula as on an input module:

Explanation:  Transmission of an analog value located in the overflow or underflow range 
(7FFFh or 8000h) is suppressed for the time period specified here. The 
value 7FFFh or 8000h is only sent after this time has elapsed, if it is still 
pending. If the value returns to below 7FFFh or above 8000h again before 
this time elapses, it is immediately sent again as normal. The suppression 
time is started again for the full duration the next time 7FFFh or 8000h is 
received. 
This is typically used for temporary suppression of current values that may 
occur when powerful motors are started. The analog input may exceed 
several times the maximum range under some circumstances. Suppression 
prevents these values from being signaled as faults in the control center 
system. 
The suppression is adjusted to analog values that are acquired by the S7 
analog input modules as raw values. These modules return the specified 
values for the overflow or underflow range for all input ranges (also for life-
zero inputs). 
When the user provides specific values, fault suppression is only possible if 
these also adopt the values 7FFFh or 8000h when the permitted ranges 
are exceeded. If this is not the case, the parameter does not need to have 
a value entered.
