BRX Do-More PLC First Order Filter
BRX Do-More PLC First Order Filter
The First Order Filter (FILTER) instruction performs a continuous filtering operation on the input value.
This operation applies 63.2% of the difference between the In value and the Out value to the Out value over the duration of the Time Constant.
In this programming example, we are using a time constant of 1.5 seconds. We will mimic the analog input signal with noise.
You will notice that the output will not jump all over.
Filters are used to dampen or slow down the changes to the In value to produce a more linear Out value.
Since the filter instruction uses a real output, we are using the rounding operation in the math instruction to show the nearest whole number.

There are several reasons why we are using the BRX Do-More Controller. Here are just a few.
– Standalone PLC with built-in I/O
– Built-in Data Logging
– Communication ability – Ethernet Port, RS232, RS485, USB – support for protocols such as Modbus RTU, Modbus TCP, ASCII, K-sequence (DirectLOGIC users), Custom Protocols (ASCII over serial, TCP or UDP over Ethernet)
– Built-in Analog input and output
– Integrated motion control
– High-speed counters
– Powerful instruction set (Video of Instructions in software)
– Ability to expand the system with a variety of modules
– Part of the Do-More series of PLCs which use the same free software. (Do-More Designer)
– Integrated simulator in the software capable of external communications for testing
