Low Pass Frequency

250.0

Hz

The Low Pass cut off Frequency. Adjust as necessary to eliminate oscillations. Higher cut off frequency allows faster reaction, but more signals to pass through. Lower cut off frequency allows fewer signals to pass through but slower reaction.

Never set below 100Hz.

Low Pass Damping

0.8

 

Do Not Change. See the Second Order Low Pass Filter diagram to see how the damping is implemented and that 0.8 is optimal.

High Pass Frequency

Filter Type

Description

LOWPASS2

When cut off frequency is reached the output signal is decreasing 40db/decade It is even designated as Spring-Mass-System. This is the default filter of choice for XTS movers.

Other Filter Types

The TcTuningAssist may recommend another filter, if so use the settings the TcTuningAssist has recommended.

Damping Factor

Filter Object 1:

A damping factor of 0.8 provides a reasonable response and is generally sufficient. Damping factors less than 0.5 should not be used.
