Filter enable.  If you want to use a filter to reduce the effects of electrical noise, check this box.

Filter factor.  Each time a reading is taken, the filtered value is updated using the equation:

new value = old value + (reading - old value) / (filter factor)

Filtered values are more stable, but respond more slowly to real changes in temperature. The higher the factor, the stronger the filtering effect will be.
