7 Functions and outputs
The MX878, MX410 and MX460 modules enable mathematics functions to be performed
in real time and their results to be provided as standard system signals. These system
signals can be used like actual measurement signals for subsequent tasks (analog output,
EtherCAT signal, source signal for mathematics function, data visualization and storage).
The MX878 and MX410 modules feature analog outputs that can be connected to a
system or source signal, for example an actual measurement signal (additionally scaled,
filtered) or the result of a mathematics function.
Measurement channels that are used in mathematics functions or directly for analog outputs
need to be activated for ”isochronous data transfer” (e.g. in the QuantumX−Assistant
software, ”Signals” tab).
Note
The module configuration is immediately active after system reboot (Auto Startup). No
operating PC is required for configured signal outputs to run stand−alone.
