“Pulse counters” on page 45.
5.1.7.1. Filter time of a digital input
The filter time eliminates debounces and short disturbances on a digital input. The
filter time is set for each digital input of the REF 54_ feeder terminal. The operation
of input filtering is illustrated below.

Fig. 5.1.7.1.-1 Filtering of a digital input
In the figure above, the input signal is named ‘Input’, the filter timer ‘Filter Time’
and the filtered input signal ‘Filtered Input’. At the beginning, the input signal is at
high state, the short low state is filtered and no input state change is detected. The
low state starting from the time t
0
exceeds the filter time, which means that the
change in the input state is detected and the time tag attached to the input change is
t
0
. The high state starting from t
1
is detected and the time tag t
1
is attached.
Each digital input has a filter time parameter “Input # filter”, where # is the number
of the digital input of the module in question (for example Input 1 filter).
