Adjustable interference pulse filters

Input filters are used for interference suppression at the encoder and digital inputs. The terminal offers the option to parameterize different filter frequencies according to the application.

The individual inputs are subject to the following filter frequencies:

Inputs

Max. recommended filter frequency

Encoder inputs: Track A, Track B

RS422 mode: 5 MHz

TTL mode: 1 MHz

Open Collector: 100 kHz

Gate/Latch input

1 MHz

Notice

Fast digital inputs – interference from interfering devices

Please note that the input wiring has very little filtering. It has been optimized for fast signal transmission from the input to the evaluation unit. In other words, rapid level changes/pulses in the µs range and/or high-frequency interference signals from devices (e.g. proportional valves, stepper motor or DC motor output stages) arrive at the evaluation unit almost unfiltered/unattenuated. These interferences can be incorrectly detected as a signal.

  • To suppress interference, an additional input filter can be parameterized.
  • Furthermore, EMC-compliant cabling and the use of separate power supply units for the terminal and the devices causing interference are recommended.
