 If negative rate is disallowed and no maximum rate value is set, one false high reading will lead to a period of missing measurements until the measurement reaches the previous false high reading. E.g. if the counter is at `600,00` and it's read incorrectly as` 610,00`, all measurements will be skipped until the counter reaches `610,00`. Setting the MaxRateValue to `0,05` leads to a rejection of all readings with a difference `> 0,05`, in this case `610,00`. The rejection also applies to correct readings with a difference `> 0,05`!
