Setting the Time Constant
When there is rapid change in the measurement data, the readings
may become difficult to read. In such case, the speed of updating
the readings can be reduced by changing the time constant setting.
Time Constant determines the time span of the moving average.
When a larger (longer) time constant is selected, the readings will
be rather stable, and when a smaller (shorter) time constant is
selected, the readings will be more responsive and sensitive to the
change.
The time constant can be selected from 1, 5, 10 or 20 seconds.

EXAMPLE: when setting the time constant to 20 seconds:
Select the time constant “20.0” by pressing
keys, and
press the key.
