S Filters set for the MX460B do not apply to math channels. These channels
are always unfiltered.
However, the input signal is filtered.
10.3 MX878B
The MX878B module is a module with eight analog outputs that can be
accessed on the front panel via BNC sockets or plug terminals.

Two analog outputs each (1 and 2, 3 and 4, etc.) have the same ground poten
tials, for the others electrical isolation applies between them and the voltage
supply ground.
The modules can receive all signals that are isochronously available on the
IEEE1394b FireWire.
The settings for this are implemented with the QuantumX Assistant. Before
output at the analog output, the signal passes through an output characteristic
curve parameterized by the user (2-point scaling) and a filter also parameter
ized by the user. In addition, the rate for DAC is reduced to 96 kS/s through
interpolation.
Math channels
The MX878B is a dedicated module designed for analog outputs and math
channels.
The MX878B supports 4 math channels and peak value detection channels.
