Real-time functions and outputs

10 Real-time functions and outputs
The MX410B, MX430B, MX460B as well as MX878B, MX879B modules can
perform calculations in real time, with the results available as standard system
signals. These system signals can be used like actual measurement signals for
subsequent tasks (analog output, EtherCAT® signal, source signal for math
ematics function, data visualization and storage).
The MX878B, MX879B MX410B and MX430B 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 mathemat
ics function. In addition, MX879B provides digital inputs and outputs (binary,
static). The digital inputs are time-stamped. Some digital outputs can be acti
vated in real time by limit switch.
Measurement channels that are used in mathematics functions or directly for
analog outputs need to be activated for “isochronous data transfer” (for exam
ple in the QuantumX Assistant software, ”Signals” tab).
Notice
The module configuration is immediately active after system reboot (Auto
Startup). No operating PC is required for configured signal outputs to run
standalone.
