Parameter MaxRateValue
Default Value: 0,05
Maximum allowed change between two readings, if exceeded the last reading will be rejected. Depending on the settings of <NUMBER>.MaxRateType the MaxRateValue is either treated as the difference between the two measurements (AbsoluteChange = difference) not taking the set time interval into account or as the difference normalized to the interval (RateChange = difference per minute).
If negative rate is disallowed and no maximum rate value is set, one false high reading will lead to a period of missing measurements until the measurement reaches the previous false high reading. E.g. if the counter is at 600,00 and it's read incorrectly as 610,00, all measurements will be skipped until the counter reaches 610,00. Setting the MaxRateValue to 0,05 leads to a rejection of all readings with a difference > 0,05, in this case 610,00. The rejection also applies to correct readings with a difference > 0,05!
!!! Note
If you edit the config file manually, you must prefix this parameter with <NUMBER> followed by a dot (eg. main.MaxRateValue). The reason is that this parameter is specific for each <NUMBER> (<NUMBER> is the name of the number sequence defined in the ROI's).
