    Chapter 5 Programming NOTE: When Hi peak, Lo peak or Time average Calculated point types are reset, the new value will be the current Basepoint value at the time of reset. 5.6.12.3 Low (Lo) peak Lo peak Calculated Point Types keep track of the lowest data of a given point. This data is stored until some form of reset occurs.

    Chapter 5 Programming 5.6.12.6 Time Average (avg) A Calculated Time average point calculates the continuous average of the measured or processed value of a selected point. The result is the weighted average of the present reading and the previous average value. Therefore, this type of point can be used to smooth out noisy or erratic signals and to attenuate the effects of sudden transitions.
