Documentation

Definition

If you set this indicator, the system rounds decimal places in a different manner to the normal system behavior.

The first value in a series of forecast values is rounded up to the next integer value. The (negative) remainder is passed on to the next bucket and added to the value in the next bucket. The integer part is written to the screen and the remainder passed on the next bucket, where the process is repeated. As a result the overall error due to rounding effects is reduced.

Example

Calculated value    0.7    0.7    0.7    0.7

'Old logic'    0    0    0    0

'New logic    1    0.7-0.3=0.4    0.7+0.4=1.1    0.7+0.1=0.8

Result    1    0    1    0
