Configuration of effective pendulum length (The effective pendulum length corresponds, for example, to the actual length in [m] of the rope of a crane application from the rope anchor point to the end of the rope or, if a load is attached, to its center of gravity. It is calculated from the sum of the parameters "Configured pendulum length/offset", "Pendulum length from axis" and "Pendulum length from fieldbus".)

Pendulum length filter – filtering the signal of the effective pendulum length

(Only visible with "Pendulum length from axis")

Selection of the pendulum length filter

Filtering the signal of the effective pendulum length:

• No filter: The pendulum length is used by an interpolated axis of the same MOVI-C^® CONTROLLER.
• Dynamic filter: If the pendulum length changes during acceleration or deceleration of the travel axis, the pendulum length filter is required in the following cases:
• The pendulum length is specified via fieldbus or via a MOVIKIT^® EncoderInterface.
• The pendulum length is noisy (e.g. due to sensors or encoders).
• In the 2nd derivative, the pendulum length is not continuous (e.g. due to an additive position jump via fieldbus).
