Module Filter
The module filter attenuates the input signal beginning at the specified
frequency. This feature is applied on a module-wide basis, affecting all channels.
The module attenuates the selected frequency by approximately -3 dB or 0.707 of
the applied amplitude.
An input signal with frequencies above the selected frequency is attenuated more
while frequencies below the selection receive no attenuation.
In addition to frequency rejection, a by-product of the filter selection is the
minimum sample rate (RTS) that is available. For example, the 1000 Hz selection
does not attenuate any frequencies less than 1000 Hz, and provides for sampling
of all 16 channels within 18 ms. The 15 Hz selection attenuates all frequencies
above 15 Hz and provides only for sampling all 16 channels within 328 ms.
Use the following table to choose a module filter setting.
IMPORTANT
Do not use the 1000 Hz module filter with HART instruments.
IMPORTANT
60 Hz is the default setting for the module filter. This setting provides
approximately 3 dB of attenuation of a 60 Hz input.
