The maximum data rate of the input and output quantities
is 1200 Hz (< 1 ms of computation time). The computed
output signals can be scaled and output as filtered ana
log voltages by the same module. The computed signals
can also be distributed (isochronously) to the IEEE1394b
FireWire bus in real time and output via CAN bus or
EthrCAT® (MX471B: CAN bus. MX878B: EtherCAT®
bus).
Scaling of the input and output quantities must always be
noted.
An EXCEL compensation matrix can be copied directly to
the matrix parameterization (Ctrl + C, Ctrl + V).
Function for Root Mean Square (RMS) calculation
RMS is computed from one of the module’s 4 analog
input channels according to the formula:
RMS +

f(x)

Where f(x) denotes the input channel signal and T the
time window (in ms).
Keep in mind the following notes when working with RMS
channels:
S The maximum sampling rate is 4800 (2400) Hz
S The output (sampling) rate of the RMS channel must
not be higher than the sampling rate of the input chan
nel.
S Filters set for the MX878B/879B do not apply to RMS
channels. These channels are always unfiltered. How
ever, the input signal is filtered.
