5.6.2 REFF (FNC 51)
Operation:
PLC’s are provided with input filters to overcome
problems generated by mechanical switch gear.
However, as this involves ensuring a steady input
signal is received for a fixed time duration, the use of
input filters slows down the PLC response times. For high speed applications, especially where
solid state switching provides the input signal, input filter times may be reduced. The default
setting for the input filters is approximately 10 msec. Using this instruction input filter times of 0
to 60 msec may be selected. The setting ‘0’ (zero) is actually 50 µsec. This is the minimum
available setting. It is automatically selected when direct input, interrupts or high speed counting
functions are used. The REFF instruction needs to be driven for each program scan if it is to be
effective, otherwise, the standard 10 msec filter time is used.
