Enable Master Position Filter Checkbox
Use this checkbox to Enable/Disable Master Position Filter. The default is
disabled and must be checked to enable position filtering. Master Position
Filter, when enabled, effectively filters the specified master axis position input
to the slave axis’s gearing or position camming operation. The filter smoothes
out the actual position signal from the master axis, and thus smoothes out the
corresponding motion of the slave axis.
When this feature is enabled the Master Position Filter Bandwidth field is
enabled.
Master Position Filter Bandwidth
The Master Position Filter Bandwidth field is enabled when the Enable
Position Filter checkbox is selected. This field controls the bandwidth for
master position filtering. Enter a value in Hz in this field to set the bandwidth
to for the Master Position Filter.
Press Apply then select the Units tab to access the Axis Properties Units
dialog.

IMPORTANT
A value of zero for Master Position Filter Bandwidth
effectively disables the master position filtering.
