Syntax:

#FILTER [ON | OFF] [ORDER=.. ORDER_TIME=.. SHARE=.. AX_DEV=.. FCUT=.. ACC_FACT=.. QUALITY=.. ]

ON	Enable FIR filter.
OFF	Disable FIR filter.
ORDER=..	Specify filter order
ORDER_TIME=..	Specify filter order over time in [µs]
SHARE=..	Define the degree of effectiveness (analogous to P-AXIS-00590) of the filter in [%] value range 0 – 100 default value = 100
AX_DEV=..	Specify the tolerance for tolerance monitoring in [mm, inch ]. Default value = 0 (no tolerance monitoring). with active P-CHAN-00439
FCUT=..	Specify the cut-off frequency (analogous to (P-AXIS-00585) of the filter in [Hz] default value = 30
ACC_FACT=..	Increase the path velocity at block transitions with FIR filter enabled. The greater the value setting, the less the velocity is reduced at the block transition. This requires a valid setting of P-AXIS-00013 (a_trans_weight) for the axes. Value range = 1.0 – 10.0 Default value =: 1.0
QUALITY=..	Specify the filter quality of the filter core curve value range: 0 < QUALITY <= 1 default value = 1.0 Parameter available as of V3.1.3075.04

Notice

The #FILTER ON/OFF command enables or disables all the FIR filters of the axes in the channel.

It is possible to use FIR filters on all axes. It is also possible to use different filters for each axis by axis-specific configuration in the axis lists.

FIR filters can be globally enabled or disabled and reparameterised across all axes in the NC program during machining (see Programming example).

Notice

Tolerance monitoring can only be configured and activated in the NC program.

Tolerance monitoring is programmed by the parameter AX_DEV. It ensures that every axis remains within the specified tolerance [mm, inch].

Tolerance monitoring always monitors all axes and therefore can only be controlled globally in the NC program.

Tolerance monitoring in only active if AX_DEF was specified with a corresponding tolerance.

Programing Example

NC program with 90° corner

Program with a simple square contour. Traverse feed rate=4000mm/min, slope type=TRAPEZ (non-linear) and tolerance (AX_DEV)=0.001mm.

Setting in the axis lists:

filter_fir.type 1
filter_fir.order 40

The contour is traversed 3 times:

first with filter and tolerance monitoring
only with filter
finally as reference without filter enabled.
