Filter time constant
The filter time constant can be used to filter out disturbance with 
analog signals.
In the default setting the filter time constant is active with 0.1 
seconds. The time value set here applies to 63 % of the maximum 
analog signal (+10 V, 20 mA).
You  can deactivate the filter time constant by setting the 
parameter to 0.0:
P2.4 (AI1) = Filter time constant, analog input AI1
P2.8 (AI2) = Filter time constant, analog input AI2
P4.4 (AO) = Filter time constant, Analog output AO
h
Long filter times lead to a delay in the analog signal 
processing.
