PL.FILTERTIME

Description

PL.FILTERTIME sets the period of a "boxcar" moving average filter on the position command. When PL.FILTERTIME is greater than zero, the filter is active.

The moving average filter is applied to all Command Source types, but only active when the AKD is in Position mode.

This feature is typically used for smoothing abrupt changes in position command, or filtering coarse command steps from low resolution controllers, or electronic gearing.


  • When the filter is on (PL.FILTERTIME > 0), total motion commanded will be delayed by the period the filter is set to.
