Description

The RMC200 Pressure/Force Input Filter parameter specifies the cut-off frequency of the filter in Hertz. This filter is applied to the Actual Pressure/Force that is used in the control algorithm. Setting this value to zero (0) disables the Pressure/Force Input filter. This filter is only available if the Input Filter Type has been set to a filter type that uses the Pressure/Force Input Filter.

The Pressure/Force Input Filter is part of the Input Filter, which filters the feedback values used by the control algorithm. This differs from the Pressure/Force Display Filter axis parameter, which is part of the Display Filter. Feedback values are first filtered by the Input Filter, if it is enabled, and then also by the Display Filter, before being displayed as the final feedback values.

For more details, see Filtering.

Limits

The filter is disabled (without notice to the user) when the frequency is set above the maximum frequencies listed below, or below the minimum value.

Filter Algorithm Type	Min Cut-off Frequency	Max Cut-off Frequency
Low Pass, Single Pole	0.01	50% x loop frequency
Low Pass, 2-pole Butterworth	0.01	25% x loop frequency
Low Pass, 4-pole Butterworth	0.01	25% x loop frequency
Low Pass ABG	0.01	10% x loop frequency
Low Pass ABGD	0.01	7.5% x loop frequency
