SomatXR DAQ
The SomatXR Ultra‑Rugged DAQ series is a modular and universally applicable measurement system. The modules of this family can be individually combined and intelligently connected according to the measurement task. The distributed operation makes it possible to position individual modules close to the measuring points, resulting in short sensor lines.
The SomatXR Ultra‑Rugged DAQ series consists of the following modules:
- CX23-R Data Processor: The CX23-R hosts its own secure web interface for intuitive and easy to use test setup, control, monitoring and data visualization interfaces. This server-based interface supports multiple users, and the capability to define system access restrictions on a per user basis. To manage test data, the CX23-R has the capacity to perform a broad range of on-board data processing. This includes a diverse set of computed channels for defining triggers and gates for the Somat DataModes™ as well as supporting arbitrarily complex mathematically computations. The acquired test data is stored in the efficient and robust SIE file format using a high-speed SATA Drive with a storage capacity up to 64 GB .
In addition, the CX23-R provides direct data sourcing for six interfaces including one DIO, three CAN, one GPS and one AUX.
- EX23-R PoE Switch: The EX23-R is a ruggedized 10-port Gigabit switch that supports IEEE1588 PTPv2 transparent clock time synchronization. The EX23-R supports both IPv6 and IPv4 Internet protocols. Five ports provide Power over Ethernet (PoE) to support cameras and other low power Ethernet based data sources. This module is factory configured to work seamlessly with the CX23-R.
- MX Modules: The SomatXR MX modules are front end data sourcing modules that can be used as expansion modules with the CX23-R Data Processor. They are configurable to interface to a diverse range of transducers and sensors. Generic features for most MX modules include precision measurement capabilities using 24 bit ADCs, TEDS sensor support and multiple digital filtering options.
- For more information on using MX modules in a standalone system with the catmanAP and MX Assistant software applications, refer to the MX Modules User Manual.
- The following SomatXR MX modules are currently available:
- MX1601B-R Standard Module: Up to 16 configurable inputs for DC voltage sources (60 V, 10 V, 100 mV), DC current sources (20 mA) or current-fed piezoelectric transducers (IEPE).
- MX1609KB-R Thermocouple Module: Up to 16 type K thermocouples (NiCrNi) for measuring temperatures.
- MX1615B-R Bridge Module: Up to 16 individually configurable inputs, including strain gage-based transducers, standardized voltage and resistance or resistance-based measurements (for example, PT100 resistance thermometer).
