filters
Two filters are located before the position control loop to prevent the machine 
from oscillating. 
 MP_typeFilter1 only affects rotary axes. This filter is usually not required 
for lathes. In this case you can enter "off" for the parameter.
 MP_typeFilter2 only affects linear axes.
With MP_orderFilter1 and MP_orderFilter2 you define the global order of the 
filter. Then you define for each axis whether a filter is used and which filter is 
used to optimize the axis. In addition, the frequency of the filter is defined axis-
specifically.
The smoothing function of these filters causes contour errors. The velocity 
profile is adjusted by the look-ahead function so that the contour error does 
not exceed the given tolerance (see "Look-ahead" on page 825).

Filters delay the processing time of NC blocks by the control, since multiple 
NC blocks must be considered for the filter functions.
