6.2 Output signals in real time
6.2.1 MX878B
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.
6.2.2 CX27C-R via Industrial Ethernet (EtherCAT® or PROFINET) and recording
via Ethernet
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.
