Filtering Input Noise for the DL250-1 and DL260 CPUs Only
Add the following logic to filter and smooth analog input noise in DL250-1 and DL260
CPUs. This is especially useful when using PID loops. Noise can be generated by the field
device and/or induced by field wiring.
The analog value in BCD is first converted to a binary number because there is not a BCD-
to-real conversion instruction. Memory location V1400 is the designated work space in this
example. The MULR instruction is the filter factor, which can be from 0.1 to 0.9. The
example uses 0.2. A smaller filter factor increases filtering. A higher precision value can be
used, but it is not generally needed. The filtered value is then converted back to binary and
then to BCD. The filtered value is stored in location V1402 for use in your application or
PID loop.
NOTE: Be careful not to do a multiple number conversion on a value. For example, if you are using the pointer method
to get the analog value, it is in BCD and must be converted to binary. However, if you are using the conventional method
of reading analog and are masking the first twelve bits, then it is already in binary and no conversion using the BIN
instruction is needed.
