Details
The number of sample readings used for the median calculation is determined by the selected range
(1 to 5) as follows:
Sample readings = (2
R) + 1
Where: R is the selected range (1 to 5)
For example, a rank of 5 uses the last 11 readings to determine the median;
(2
5) + 1 = 11.
Each new reading replaces the oldest reading, and the median is then determined from the updated
sample of readings.
