• If you want to use the DI of a GX90XD or GX90WD, only a
single module installed in the GM main unit can be used.
• Do not link modules in a way that violates the
specifications. Doing so can cause the GM system to
crash. For details on the ways modules could be linked to
crash the GM system, see the User’s Manual.
Limitations depending on the Measurement Mode
Depending on the measurement mode, there are limits
to the number of measurement channels, the number of
recording channels, the supported modules, and so on.
For the specific limitations, see the limitations provided in
the following general specifications.
• GM Data Acquisition System General Specifications
(GS 04L55B01-01EN)
Channel Names
Operations such as measurement, computation, and
recording are performed on channels.
A channel name is assigned a 4-digit number consisting of a
unit number, slot number, and channel number.
• Channel names are specific to the system, so they cannot
be changed.
• By setting tags or tag numbers to the channels, you can
use any names you like.
