Input filters (software filter)
The current / voltage inputs have a software filter for the input signals which can be
programmed with STEP 7. It filters the configured interference frequency (50/60 Hz) and
multiples thereof.
The selected interference suppression also determines the integration time.
At an interference suppression of 50 Hz the software filter forms the average based on the
last 20 measurements and saves the result as a measurement value.
You can suppress interference frequencies (50 Hz or 60 Hz) according to the parameters set
in STEP 7. A setting of 400 Hz will not suppress interference.
An integrated low-pass filter attenuates analog input signals of channel 0 to 3.
