(8.D.1.2) AveragerFract32
Overview
Advanced multichannel averager fract32 version
Discussion
Intelligent averager module which avoids the startup transient. When the module starts it uses a cumulative averaging method and then later on switches to exponential averaging. The .smoothingTime variable determines the averaging interval. Cumulative averaging lasts for .smoothingTime msec and when this is done the module switches to exponential averaging.
The module supports multichannel inputs and separately computes the average for each channel. That is, if the input has N channels then the output will also have N channels. The average is computed on a sample by sample basis.
The module has an optional reset pin which is enabled using the RESETPIN argument. The module checks the first sample of data on the reset pin and if non-zero restarts averaging. The module starts in cumulative averaging mode and then switches to exponential averaging.

MATLAB Usage
File Name: averager_fract32_module.m
M = averager_fract32_module(NAME, RESETPIN)
Advanced averager module which eliminates the startup transient. The
module separately averages each input channel. Arguments:
NAME - name of the module.
RESETPIN - optional Boolean variable that specifies if the module
has a reset pin. By default RESETPIN = 0.
