The descriptions for the elds on the ADC Settings page, Figure 6.5, are the following:
Active Calibration: A user may select one of two calibrations to be applied to the force and torque
readings. For more information about the two calibration options, refer to
Section 15.3—Calibration Ranges.
ADC Sampling The user may select the sampling frequency for low-pass ltering.
Frequency: For more information about the sampling rate options, refer to
Section 4.3—Sample Rate)
Low-Pass Filter Cutoff The user may select a value for the cutoff frequency for low-pass ltering. The No
Frequency: Filter value disables the low-pass ltering feature. For more information about the
ltering values, refer to Section 4.5—Low-Pass Filter.
Software Bias Values: The user may enter values for the bias offset applied to the sensor strain gage
readings. To remove the bias offset, set the elds to all zeros.
Note that the strain gage readings do not have a 1:1 correspondence to force and
torque readings.
6.5 Thresholding Page (moncon.htm)
On the Thresholding page, the user can set up to 16 threshold conditions. Threshold conditions compare
the sensor readings to simple user-dened threshold statements. After the user enables threshold monitoring
and a sample is read, the user-dened output code for all threshold conditions satised by that sample are
compared with a bitwise OR function or AND function (as dened by the user) to form the threshold output.
In practice, it is very unlikely that more than one threshold sample is satised in a single sample. If the
threshold conditions are exceeded, the threshold monitoring latch is set, and threshold monitoring is paused
until the user issues a reset command or the user dened momentary time delay has passed.
Each threshold condition can be congured for:
• the axis to monitor
• the type of comparison to perform
• the threshold value to use for the comparison
• the output code to send when the comparison is true
