Details
Each measurement function can utilize the advanced filter which adds a noise tolerance window to
the averaging algorithm. These commands are used to set the noise tolerance level of the advanced
filter for the specified function. The :ADVanced[:STATe] commands are used to enable or disable
the advanced filter.
The noise tolerance level is expressed as a percent of the last averaged reading. In general, if the
noise is within this window, the reading is simply based on the normal averaging algorithm. If a
reading is outside this window, then the advanced averaging algorithm is used.
