 ##### `rawbg` (Raw BG)
-  Calculates BG using sensor and calibration records from and displays an alternate BG values and noise levels.
+  Calculates BG using sensor and calibration records from and displays an alternate BG values and noise levels. Defaults that can be adjusted with [extended setting](#extended-settings)
+  * `DISPLAY` (`unsmoothed`) - Allows the user to control which algorithm is used to calculate the displayed raw BG values using the most recent calibration record.
+    * `unfiltered` - Raw BG is calculated by applying the calibration to the glucose record's unfiltered value.
+    * `filtered` - Raw BG is calculated by applying the calibration to the glucose record's filtered value. The glucose record's filtered values are generally produced by the CGM by a running average of the unfiltered values to produce a smoothed value when the sensor noise is high.
+    * `unsmoothed` - Raw BG is calculated by first finding the ratio of the calculated filtered value (the same value calculated by the `filtered` setting) to the reported glucose value. The displayed raw BG value is calculated by dividing the calculated unfiltered value (the same value calculated by the `unfiltered` setting) by the ratio.  The effect is to exagerate changes in trend direction so the trend changes are more noticeable to the user. This is the legacy raw BG calculation algorithm.
 
 ##### `iob` (Insulin-on-Board)
   Adds the IOB pill visualization in the client and calculates values that used by other plugins.  Uses treatments with insulin doses and the `dia` and `sens` fields from the [treatment profile](#treatment-profile).
