The MX840B-R universal module allows channels 2-8 to output to the CAN bus (channel 1). This mode is configured entirely in the MX Assistant.
Both modules MX471B-R and MX471C-R allow measurement signals, or the signal calculated in real time, to be output to the CAN bus. This gateway mode is typically used in test benches or in mobile measuring mode, for connection to a central CAN-based data logger.
This mode is configured entirely in the MX Assistant. The MX modules need to be connected via FireWire and the signals to be transmitted must be parameterized isochronously (in real time), and then assigned to the relevant CAN port. The parameterization is permanently stored in the modules (EEPROM). To simplify integration at the opposite end (for example, a logger/test bench), the MX Assistant can generate a CAN database of signals (.dbc).
The QuantumX MX878B Analog Output Module allows for up to eight analog voltage outputs for measured sensor values and channel calculations in real time. This mode is configured using the CX23-R Data Processor or using the catman® or MX Assistant software. All other MX modules must be connected via FireWire, and the signals to be transmitted must be parameterized isochronously (in real time) and then assigned to the relevant analog voltage output. The parameterization is permanently stored in the modules (EEPROM). The maximum measuring rate is limited to 5 kHz.
Each source from an MX module is distributed into two signals, to which different data rate and filtering parameters can be assigned. For example, the first signal of an input channel can have a high data rate (for example, an acceleration sensor with 100 kS/sec) and deactivated filter for analysis while the second signal can have a lower data rate (for example, 5 kS/sec) and be output via EtherCAT® or PROFINET.
