• Bit 7 “Enc0 EdgTime” or bit 23 “Enc1 EdgTime” configures the method of
sampling used by the Velocity Position Loop (VPL). Setting the bit
chooses “Edge to Edge” sampling, while resetting the bit to zero chooses
“Simple Difference” sampling. “Simple Difference” sampling calculates
speed by examining the difference between pulse counts over a fixed
sample time. “Edge to Edge” sampling adjusts the sample time to
synchronize with the position count updates from the daughter card -
improving the accuracy of the speed calculation.
• Bits 10…12 “En0SmplRt bx”, or bits 26…28 “En1SmplRt bx”, sets the
number of taps for a Finite Impulse Response (FIR) filter (see Table 17 -
FIR Filter Settings).
