Utilities VIs

Owning Palette: Digital Filter Design VIs and Functions

Installed With: Digital Filter Design Toolkit. This topic might not match its corresponding palette in LabVIEW depending on your operating system, licensed product(s), and target.

Use the Utilities VIs to retrieve the filter coefficients and and to create filters from the coefficients.

The VIs on this palette can return general LabVIEW error codes or specific digital filter design error codes.

Palette ObjectDescription
DFD Build Filter from Cascaded CoefConverts the IIR Filter Cluster output of the Advanced IIR Filtering VIs into a filter.
DFD Build Filter from Lattice CoefCreates a filter from lattice form coefficients.
DFD Build Filter from Transfer FunctionCreates a filter from a transfer function.
DFD Build Filter from Zero-Pole-GainBuilds a filter using poles, zeroes, and gain values.
DFD Get Cascaded CoefConverts a filter to an infinite impulse response (IIR) filter cluster that is compatible with the IIR Filter Cluster output in the Advanced IIR Filtering VIs.
DFD Get Lattice CoefRetrieves the lattice form coefficients of a filter. The filter you specify must have a lattice form filter structure.
DFD Get OrderRetrieves the order of a filter.
DFD Get Transfer FunctionRetrieves the transfer function of a filter.
DFD Get Zero-Pole-GainRetrieves the zeroes, poles, and gain (ZPK) of a filter.
DFD Load from FileRetrieves a filter from a file. You must manually select the polymorphic instance you want to use.
DFD Load from Text FileRetrieves a filter from a text file.
DFD Render Difference EquationDraws the difference equation of a filter in a picture indicator.
DFD Render Transfer Function EquationDraws the transfer function of a filter in a picture indicator.
DFD Render Zero-Pole-Gain EquationDraws the zero-pole-gain equation of a filter in a picture indicator.
DFD Save to FileSaves a filter into a file. Wire data to the filter in input to determine the polymorphic instance to use or manually select the instance. Use the DFD Load from File VI to load the filter from the file.
DFD Save to Text FileSaves a filter to a text file in XML format.
