Any other use is not appropriate. To ensure safe operation, the module may only be used as specified in the operating manual. It is also essential to follow the respective legal and safety regulations for the application concerned during use. The same applies to the use of accessories. Each time, before starting up the modules, you must first run a project planning and risk analysis that takes into account all the safety aspects of automation technology. This particularly concerns personal and machine protection. Additional safety precautions must be taken in plants where malfunctions could cause major damage, loss of data or even personal injury. In the event of a fault, these precautions establish safe operating conditions. This can be done, for example, by mechanical interlocking, error signaling, limit value switches, etc. Safety rules A module must not be connected directly to a power supply network. The maximum permissible supply voltage is 10...30 V (DC). The supply connection, as well as the signal and sense leads, must be installed in such a way that electromagnetic interference does not adversely affect device functionality (HBM recommendation: ”Greenline shielding design”, downloadable from the Internet at http://www.hbm.com/Greenline). Automation equipment and devices must be covered over in such a way that adequate protection or locking against unintentional actuation is provided (such as access checks, password protection, etc.). When devices are working in a network, these networks must be designed in such a way that malfunctions in individual nodes can be detected and shut down. Safety precautions must be taken both in terms of hardware and software, so that a line break or other interruptions to signal transmission, such as via the bus interfaces, do not cause undefined states or loss of data in the automation device. HBM QuantumX Safety instructions 7 Conditions on site For modules in IP20 protected housing: − Protect the modules from humidity or effects of the weather such as rain, snow, etc. − The permissible relative humidity at 31°C is 80% (non condensing); linear reduction down to 50% at 40°C. − Ensure that the ventilation openings on the sides are not covered. For all modules: − Do not expose the instrument to direct sunlight. − Observe the maximum permissible ambient temperatures given in the specifications. Maintenance and cleaning The modules are maintenance-free. Please note the following when cleaning the housing: − Before cleaning, disconnect the equipment completely. − Clean the housing with a soft, slightly damp (not wet!) cloth. Never use solvents, since these could damage the labelling on the front panel and the display. − When cleaning, ensure that no liquid gets into the module or connections. General dangers of failing to follow the safety instructions The module is a state of the art device and as such is failsafe. The module may give rise to further dangers if it is inappropriately installed and operated by untrained personnel. Any person instructed to carry out installation, commissioning, maintenance or repair of the module must have read and understood the Operating Manuals and in particular the technical safety instructions. Remaining dangers The scope of supply and performance of the module covers only a small area of measurement technology. In addition, equipment planners, installers and operators should plan, implement and respond to the safety engineering considerations of measurement technology in such a way as to minimize remaining dangers. Prevailing regulations must be complied with at all times. There must be reference to the remaining dangers connected with measurement technology. After making settings and carrying out activities that are password−protected, you must make sure that any controls that may be connected remain in safe condition until the switching performance of the module has been tested. Working safely Error messages should only be acknowledged once the cause of the error is removed and no further danger exists.

The modules can be individually combined and intelligently connected according to the measurement task. The distributed operation makes it possible to position individual modules close to the measuring points, resulting in short sensor lines. The QuantumX family currently consists of the following modules: S MX840 universal amplifier The module has 8 universal inputs and supports more than 10 transducer technologies S MX840A universal amplifier As MX840, however it is additionally possible to connect half bridges and ohmic resistors. S MX440A universal amplifier As MX840A, however with 4 inputs (without CAN). S MX410 highly−dynamic universal amplifier The module has 4 universal inputs and supports commonly used transducer technologies (with a sampling rate of up to 96000 measuring values per second per channel). S MX460 rotation specialist frequency amplifier The module has 4 individually configurable inputs for connecting HBM torque transducers (T10, T40), incremental encoders, frequency signal sources and digital signals. S MX1609 thermocouple amplifier The module has 16 inputs for type K thermocouples S MX1609−P thermocouple amplifier As MX1609, however with IP65 degree of protection.

S MX1601 universal amplifier The module has 16 inputs that can be individually configured for voltage or current measurement or for connecting current-fed, piezoelectric transducers. S Data recorder CX22 / CX22−W (WLAN) The module is used for local recording of measured data. The modules have the following in common: S S QuantumX Low voltage connection Ethernet interface for data communication with an operating PC HBM Introduction 14 S 2 FireWire interfaces − For optional voltage supply (see data sheet) − For optional data communication via PC − For medule synchronization − For internal transmission of measurement data S Connector (VG strip) for installation on an active module carrier (not applicable for IP65 variants) S S Status LEDs for displaying general system and channel states S AutoBoot (module configuration is retained) A working standard calibration certificate has been stored on every amplifier. It can be read out via QuantumX Assistant. With amplifiers, the following applies for each measurement channel: S S Electrical isolation S S S S Support for TEDS*) technology (read, write) Configurable supply voltage (signal inputs/outputs, voltage supply, communication) for active sensors Configurable sampling rate Configurable active digital filter (Bessel, Butterworth) Scaling a. Zero span and gain linearization (constant and slope) b. Multipoint−/table-based linearization (data points) c. Polynomial linearization Sensors assigned via the sensor database can be measured (calibrated) via the channel and rewritten to the sensor database. Variants a. and b. too can be saved to the sensor data sheet (TEDS). When the transducer is connected, its characteristic curve is automatically downloaded into the amplifier and the signal is linearized accordingly. The device configuration is permanently retained, even if the device is switched off. *) HBM TEDS = Transducer Electronic Data Sheet QuantumX Introduction 15 2.3 Channel overview QuantumX Modules MX840A Number of channels (total) MX440A MX410 MX460 MX1609 MX1609-P MX1601 MX878 MX471 CX27 CX22W 8 4 4 4 16 16 - - - - Data rate (Samples/s) 19200 19200 96000 96000 300 19200 - - - - Bandwidth (Hz) 3200 3200 38000 38000 14 3000 - - - - Full-bridge strain gages • • • Half-bridge strain gages • • • Inductive full-bridge • • • Inductive half-bridge • • • LVDT • • Voltage • • • • Current (± 20 mA) • • • • •1) •1) •1) • Piezoresistive transducer • • • Resistance • • Potentiometers • • PT100 and PT1000 resistance thermometers • • Thermocouples • • Digital IN (static) • • Digital OUT (static) • • Current fed piezoelectric transducer (IEPE) • (Type K) • Indctive rotary encoder Incremental encoder • • SSI • • Frequency measurement, pulse counting • • • • • PWM Torque / rotary speed CANbus Analog outputs • • • • • (Input/Output) (Input/Output) • • • Mathematics • • Local recording of measured data • • • ¹) A Smart module (1-EICP-B-2) is required for connecting current-fed piezoelectric transducers.

QuantumX HBM Introduction 16 2.4 Sychronization of QuantumX modules To enable measurement signals to be synchronized for processing and analysis, they need to be synchronously measured. All QuantumX modules can be synchronized among themselves. This ensures simultaneous measurement on all channels. All the analog-digital converter rates, measuring rates and bridge excitation voltages are also synchronized. Synchronization methods: Synchronization via FireWire All the modules are synchronized automatically when they are connected via the FireWire cable. This is the recommended method. No CX27 module present in the system: The module with the highest serial number takes over the Master function. CX27 module present in the system: If a CX27 module is connected, this automatically becomes the synchronization Master. When starting the system, the system time is set once to the actual time. If only QuantumX modules are being used, internal synchronization is sufficient. However, if synchronous measurements are to be performed by different measurement systems, an external Master must be used for synchronization. This is also a requirement if the QuantumX modules are a long distance away from one another, and a FireWire connection would be too costly and complex. Synchronization via EtherCAT The CX27 gateway supports the EtherCAT ”Distributed Clocks” enhancement. In an EtherCAT group, the time is distributed to all the EtherCAT nodes. The CX27 module can be synchronized to the EtherCat time. This will mean that all the QuantumX module clocks are synchronized to the specified time. Synchronization via an NTP server Each QuantumX module can synchronize its internal clock with an NTP server. The NTP time is distributed to all other modules via FireWire. It is possible to achieve accuracies in the 100 µs range, although this depends on the relevant Ethernet utilization. Modules that are in proximity to each other should be synchronized by FireWire. If the synchronization source for a module is changed to NTP, the system must be restarted once. catmanEASY software from HBM includes an NTP software package. Parameters: IP address of the NTP server Threshold in µs, from which the time deviation to NTP time is tolerated HBM QuantumX Introduction 17 Synchronization using IRIG−B IRIG−B is a standardized time code. The digitally or analogously modulated time signal is externally fed to an arbitrary analog voltage input of type MX840A or MX440A amplifiers to synchronize the QuantumX system (see assignment, chapter 6.5.1). The amplifiers can record type B000 through B007 and B120 through B127 IRIG−B signals. All modules connected via FireWire are automatically synchronized as well. The code includes the time, the year and, optionally, the seconds of the current day.

The delay is not automatically corrected. Filter delays are given in the datasheet. After booting and successful synchronization, the system LED shows green. If synchronization is disturbed, or not yet established, the system LED shows orange. Example: MX840 System LED Time format used: Basis: 1.1.2000 Time stamp: 64 bit 32 bit seconds 32 bit fractions of a second, resolution (1/232) These time stamps are appended to the measured values. There are several synchronization methods to choose from (also see Fig. 2.1 page 18): S synchronizing via FireWire S synchronizing via EtherCAT (CX27) S synchronizing via NTP (Network Time Protocol) with FireWire S synchronizing via NTP without FireWire QuantumX HBM 20 3 Software Software The supplied QuantumX System CD contains a powerful software package consisting of the QuantumX Assistant, Lab View library, programming library for .NET/COM, TEDS-Editor, FireWire driver as well as a program for module firmware updating. catmanEASY and DIAdem driver are software products that can be obtained as separate product packages. 3.1 QuantumX Assistant The HBM software ”QuantumX Assistant” offers the following functions: System.. • Create survey (modules, host PC) Modules: • • • • • Search and configuration (e.g. TCP/IP communication), naming Reset to factory settings Read factory calibration certificate Analysis (information, status, log file) Save configuration to operating PC Channels/sensors: • • • • Configuration (name, connection type, TEDS, semi-automatic assignment) Measurement (alphanumeric display) Open the TEDS editor and read/write to TEDS Activate/deactivate isochronous operation via FireWire Individual signals: • Set sampling rate and filter (type, cut-off frequency) Measured values (Scope): • • • Start/Stop continuous graphic measurements (time frames, trigger, zoom) Basic signal analysis (X-Y cursor) Record measurements Functions and outputs • Generate new signals using mathematics functions (peak value, rms value, adding and multiplying, rotation) Sensor database • • HBM Output signals (scaled, filteresd) Modify and expand existing sensor databases (e.g. own sensors, dbc data files) QuantumX Software 3.2 21 catmanAP HBM’s catmanAP software is optimally suited for the following tasks: • Configuring communication and measurement channels (integrated TEDS Editor and expandable sensor database) • Configuring the test or measurement task (channels, sampling rates, triggers, comments, interaction) • Setting up virtual, online−computed channels (algebra, FFT, logics, strain−gage rosette analysis, differential, integral, etc.) • Setting up limit value or event monitoring (activation of digital output, acoustic alarm, log entry) • Individual graphical visualization options (line recorder, analog meter, digital or bar graph indicator, table, status LED, etc.) • • Various storage options (all data, cyclic, ring buffer, long duration measurement, etc.) • • • Graphical analysis of recorded data Exporting measurement data into commonly used data formats (catmanBIN, Excel, ASCII, DIADEM, MDF) Automating measurement sequences (AutoSequence and EasyScript) Reporting (using graphical displays, analyses, comments) The software package consists of various modules: QuantumX S EasyMath for mathematical evaluation S AutoSequence automates repeating measurement or analysis steps S EasyLog records the measurement data onto a storage medium S EasyPlan enables preparatory parametrization and configuration without amplifier connection S EasyScript is based on current VBA standard (Visual Basic for Applications) and enables writing of own scripts for individual measurement tasks HBM 22 3.3 Software Lab VIEW library Lab VIEW is a graphic programming system from the company ”National Instruments”.

CAUTION A rule of thumb for voltage distribution via FireWire says: ”An external supply voltage of equal potential is required at every third module”. Defects in the device cannot be excluded if a supply voltage > 30 V is used. If the supply voltage drops below 10 V, the modules switch off. In the event of battery operation in a vehicle, we recommend incorporating an uninterrupted voltage supply between battery and module to compensate for voltage drops during starting processes.

If you want to connect more modules (maximum 24), you must use hubs. Hubs are devices that connect network chains together in star configurations. This connection mode is again limited to 14 hops. A hop is the transition from one module to another (this means n−1 hops for n QuantumX modules in a chain). Depending on the connection situation, 1 to 2 hops are counted in one hub (see Fig.5.9). To count the total number of hops, the longest chain to the data sink must be counted (worst case). In FireWire systems that consist of several hubs with several module series, only the hops of the longest series are counted, the others are not taken into account.

It is essential to ensure that the equipment used in the system itself does not emit electromagnetic disturbances. Electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) which combines the concepts of required electromagnetic immunity or susceptibility (EMS) and permitted electromagnetic interference (EMI) has become increasingly more important over the past years. The HBM Greenline shielding design The complete measuring chain is fully enclosed in a Faraday cage through the unique design of the cable shield. The cable shield is flattened, connected to the transducer housing, and routed to the amplifier housing through conductive connectors. These measures substantially reduce the effects of electromagnetic disturbances. Conductive housing ensuring connection to plug and equipment housing Signal-carrying contacts Fig.6.1: HBM Cable shield connected to conductive housing through strain relief Cable shield connected to plug QuantumX Connection 65 Note All components of the measuring chain (including all cable joints such as connectors and couplings) have to be surrounded by a closed, EMC-tested shield. Shield transitions must be realized in the form of flattened, closed and low-impedance joints. This is ensured when original HBM connectors are used. Grounding and earthing EMC−compliant wiring requires that signal ground and shield are separate, therefore the shielding can be connected to earth at several points, for example, through the transducers (metal housing) and the amplifier (housing connected to protective earth conductor). In the case of potential differences in the measuring system, a potential equalization conductor has to be laid (recommended: very flexible stranded wire, 10 mm2 line diameter). Ensure that signal and data lines are run separately from current−carrying power lines. Ideally use metal cable ducts with internal separating plate. Signal ground, earth and shield should be separate from one another. To minimize the effect of electromagnetic disturbances and potential differences, the signal ground and earth (or shield) are separated in HBM equipment. The mains protective earth conductor or a separate earth potential line should be used as connection to earth. This is common practice, for instance, for potential equalization in buildings. Avoid connecting the earth lead to a radiator, water pipe or similar. QuantumX HBM 66 6.2 Connection Adjustable sensor supply for active transducers Some modules can supply active transducers with an excitation voltage of 5…24 V. When using the adjustable transducer excitation, electrical isolation from the supply voltage of the amplifier is not required. The maximum permissible power consumption is 700 mW per channel, in total not more than 2 W. If the power consumption is more than 700 mW on one channel, the transducer excitation of this channel will switch off. If the power consumption exceeds a total of 2 W, the device may switch off. MX840 1 ... 8 Connection as per measurement principle Sensor 4 9 Supply voltage 5V ... 24V1) Power supply 0V Cable shield 1) Adjustable via software 12 3 kΩ 11 Hsg. Hsg. = housing CAUTION The output voltage during idling is up to 20% higher than set when the voltage <8 V. If a current of 2 mA is drawn, the voltage falls back to the set value. The condition is met in sensors with a power consumption of min. 20 mW. This can also be met with an additional resistance of 3 kΩ if the power consumption is lower or if the sensors are sensitive. Check the correct voltage setting when connecting a sensor. Too high a voltage can destroy the sensor. The voltage value is a part of the MX840 parameterization and can only be changed with a new parameterization. The sensor supply is switched off in the delivery condition. HBM QuantumX Connection 6.3 67 TEDS The acronym TEDS stands for ”Transducer Electronic Data Sheet” and denotes a transducer or sensor’s electronic data sheet which is saved to a small electronic chip or a corresponding module and is intrinsically linked to the transducer. In addition, valuable meta data is supplied, for example, calibration data providing essential information for the traceability of measurements or tests. The electronic data sheet can be located in the transducer housing, in the inseparable cable or connector plug. The function and principle of operation are defined in Standard IEEE1451.4. Transducer with TEDS module e.g. U93 Data mode Measurement mode QuantumX MX840A Transducer information stored in TEDS includes: S The physical unit of the measured quantity (N for force, for example) and its measuring range S S The unit of the electrical output signal (mV/V for bridge transducers, for example) S If applicable, the transducer’s required excitation and electrical power supply The linear characteristics as the relation between the measured quantity and the electrical signal Additional information that can be read out using corresponding software, for example: S S Transducer manufacturer, type, serial number etc. Calibration date, recalibration interval, calibrator’s initials, etc. Amplifiers of the QuantumX series enable transducer information stored in the electronic data sheet to be read out and automatically implemented in the correct amplifier settings; this allows fast and reliable measurement. The electronic data sheet is automatically loaded, when the transducer is connected to the device. Transducers are identified via the bridge between two pins in the connector. After the digital identification mode, the amplifier automatically switches to the configured measurement mode. TEDS data can also be loaded via a software command, e.g. using catmanAP. TEDS Editor enables all TEDS data to be read out and edited; see chapter 3.6. QuantumX HBM 68 Connection QuantumX supports multiple options for reading or writing TEDS data: S One TEDS module can be accessed via two separate cable wires (”one-wire circuit”) or the transducer plug can be retrofitted with TEDS. S Amplifiers enabling IEPE transducers to be directly connected support TEDS version 1.0. S Some HBM transducers feature a special integrated TEDS module which enables TEDS data to be transmitted via the transducer’s feedback line (patented ”zero-wire circuit”). After digital communication (data mode), the amplifier switches to the measurement mode. The U93 force transducer is an example for such a transducer. S Thermocoulpe amplifiers with an RFID chip integrated in the transducer plug use TEDS technology, for example, to electronically connect the measuring point with the transducer. The data sheet to the respective amplifier provides more specifications relating to TEDS, for example the maximum permitted cable length to the transducer. If no TEDS is used, the permitted cable length can be substantially longer. Note Further information about TEDS topics can be found at http://www.hbm.com/teds HBM QuantumX Connection 6.3.1 69 Retrofitting the transducer plug with TEDS The IEEE standard 1451.4 defines a generally accepted process which enables sensors to be identified. The sensor is identified via the respective data sheet which is stored in electronic format in the sensor, cable or plug on a 1−wire EEPROM (TEDS − Transducer Electronic Data Sheet). The amplifier uses a serial 1−wire interface for communication with this EEPROM, reads out the data sheet and configures the amplifier accordingly. Retrofilling TEDS in the plug is shown in the figure below. 6 1 11 5 15 10 4 Bridge 9 6 1 1 2 Data 3 No function 1 2 3 1-wire EEPROM (Maxim DS2433+) QuantumX View from below HBM 70 6.4 Connection MX840 universal amplifier You can connect up to eight transducers to the universal amplifier MX840.

A table that converts degree oC to degree oC enables errors resulting from thermocouples and mounting conditions to be minimized. The MX1609 processes a maximum of 64 pairs of values. The ”Calibration Table” TEDS template enables 14 pairs of values to be saved, if no additional optional templates are being used. This function provides the best results when the ambient temperature of the MX1609 and thus the temperature of the cold junction is kept constant. QuantumX HBM 86 Connection Connection of the thermocouple plug in the miniature design. HBM QuantumX Connection 6.9.1 87 Measuring point identification with RFID RFID1) for measuring point identification An RFID chip in or on the thermocouple plug ensures wireless transducer identification by the amplifier. RFID technology enables contactless reading and writing of data, for example of a specific measuring point or the desired physical unit (5C or 5K). Data is input using TEDS Editor provided by HBM. Then data is written onto the RFID chip using an appropriate RFID transponder in the amplifier. The chip is reusable and works without batteries. Conditions for using RFID chips for measuring point identification: − All channels can read/write via RFID − The neighboring channel must not be occupied in the MX1609 during writing − Maximum distance chip to housing: 1 mm − For self-assembly: Check position of chip on plug Thermocouple plug with integrated RFID chip from HBM 1-THERMO-RFID (integrated by HBM) The chip for measuring point identification is already integrated in the HBM THERMO-MINI. 1) QuantumX RFID = Radio Frequency Identification: Method for communication between transponder and read/write device with magnetic fields or electromagnetic waves.

QuantumX HBM 90 Connection 6.10 MX471 CAN module 6.10.1 General information The MX471 module provides four independent CANbus nodes that are all electrically isolated from each other and the mains. MX471 busses that can be connected Typ Connector sockets / nodes see page CANbus (High-Speed CAN) 1 ... 4 125 Connected devices are not directly addressed during data transmission on a CANbus. A unique identifier denotes the contents of a message (e.g. rotational speed or engine temperature). The identifier also signals the priority of the message. Message = identifier + signal + additional information Devices connected to the bus = nodes Every node on the MX471 can be parameterized either as receiver or as sender (gateway). Parameterization as receiver is described in chapter 6.10.3. Parameterization as sender is described in chapter 7. The online help coming with the respective software package provides detailed information about parameterization. Note To ensure normal operation the CANbus needs to be terminated at both ends (and only there) using appropriate termination resistors. A 120−ohm termination resistor can be individually connected in the module by software. Termination is also required when short cables with low bit rates are used. Please refer to the data sheet for the relation between bit rate and maximum bus line length. The configuration of a node is retained after switching the modules off and on. For decoding signals at a rate greater than 2000/s, please set up signal inputs 1 to 8 on the MX471. The signal buffers of these signal inputs have been expanded accordingly.

This may be done directly at the node or, in a reproducible way, by previously generated messages in the sensor database. Individual messages can be linked to the node by drag & drop from the sensor database. Type *.dbc CAN databases, too, can be loaded into the sensor database. Should a CAN database not be available, it can be generated by the user. Editors for this purpose are provided by different companies. Received CAN messages are instantly ”time−stamped” in the measurement mode. This enables directly acquired measured quantities and CAN messages to be acquired and analyzed in parallel and synchronously in the entire system. Note MX471 is not a classical data logger that logs the complete CAN data stream on the bit level. The parameterized node ”listens” on the CANbus and extracts the signals from the relevant CAN messages to transmit them as measured values.

QuantumX HBM 126 7 Functions and outputs 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. Mathematics functions at a glance: min S S max + x Peak values (Peak) − = Add & Multiply S Root mean square (RMS) S Vibration analysis (Rotational Analysis) and angle difference (Angle diff) Mathematics functions provided by the modules MX878 + x min MX460 min − = max HBM MX410 max min max QuantumX Functions and outputs 7.1 127 MX410 The MX410 module is a module with eight analog outputs that can be accessed on the front panel via BNC sockets. The outputs are directly assigned to the above located inputs. Fig. 7.1: MX410 front view Note After configuring an analog output its function (configuration, scaling) continues to be available, even if the computer is disconnected. No connection to a PC is required. The MX410 supports 8 peak detection channels and 4 RMS channels. These functions can be used to generate so−called virtual signals that can also be output at the analog output and made available to the QuantumX system. This also makes the signals visible to the software. The device parameterization is implemented by the software (e.g. QuantumX Assistant or catmanAP). Keep in mind the following notes when working with peak monitor channels: S The maximum output (sample rate) is restricted to 4800 Hz S Resetting of PEAK values only via PC software (system input signals will follow) S The output rate of the peak monitor channel must not be higher than the sample rate of the input channel S Filters set for the MX410 do not apply to peak monitor channels S These channels are always unfiltered. However, the input signal is filtered. S The peak units do not accept other peak units or RMS as input − only the 4 analog inputs are allowed QuantumX HBM 128 Functions and outputs min max Peak Detection function Each peak detection unit can monitor either the Min or the Max of one of the module’s 4 analog input channels. A peak unit may operate in different modes: S RUN: peak value will be continuously updated S HOLD: last peak value will be ”frozen” S PEAK: peak detection enabled S FOLLOW: peak detection disabled, i.e. the channel yields the original signal of the input channel The following combinations are possible: Graph for MAX−PEAK−RUN Graph for MAX−PEAK−HOLD Graph for MAX−Follow−HOLD This also applies to the minimum values.

Keep in mind the following notes when working with RMS channels: S The maximum sample rate is restricted to 4800 (2400) Hz S The output (sample) rate of the RMS channel must not be higher than the sample rate of the input channel S Filters set for the MX410 do not apply to RMS channels. These channels are always unfiltered. However, the input signal is filtered QuantumX HBM 130 7.2 Functions and outputs MX460 The MX460 supports 4 special math channels for analysis of rotational parts: Rotational vibration and angle difference. Fig. 7.2: MX460 front view MX460 Math channels Keep in mind the following notes when working with these channels: S The maximum sample rate is restricted to 4800 (2400) Hz S The sample rate of the channel must not be higher than the sample rate of the input channel S Filters set for the MX460 do not apply to math channels. These channels are always unfiltered. However, the input signal is filtered. HBM QuantumX Functions and outputs 7.3 131 MX878 The MX878 module is a module with eight analog outputs that can be accessed on the front panel via BNC sockets. Fig. 7.3: MX878 front view Two analog outputs each (1 and 2, 3 and 4, etc.) have the same ground potentials, for the others electrical isolation applies between them and the voltage supply ground. The MX878 can receive all signals that are isochronously available on the 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 parameterized by the user. In addition, the rate for DAC is reduced to 96 kS/s through interpolation. MX878 Math channels The MX878 is a dedicated module designed for analog output and math channels. The MX878 supports 4 math channels and 4 peak detection channels. In contrast to other modules, the MX878 has no analog sensor inputs − instead it receives data from other modules via the so called ”isochronous FireWire transfer” from any source within the system configured for this data transfer mode. The module routes this data to an analog output or performs a math computation on this data (which may also be output on one of the analog outputs). You need to connect all modules via FireWire (or use a backplane) for the MX878 to become operational! You can configure several channels to ”isochronous FireWire transfer” using QuantumX Assistant software or catmanAP 3.1 or higher. Please note: Providing the data via isochronous transfer may use up significant computing power on the module (in particular on the MX410 and MX460 high−speed modules). Do not activate the isochronous transfer needlessly! QuantumX HBM 132 Functions and outputs + − x = Add & Multiply function The MX878 currently provides this type of computation: Result = a0 + a1* Input1 + a2 * Input2 + a3 * Input1 * Input2 Where Input1 and Input2 denote the two input channels used for this computation. These channels will reside on other modules and must have their isochronous FireWire transfer enabled! Keep in mind the following notes when working with math channels: S The maximum sample rate is restricted to 2400 Hz S The sample rate of the channel must not be higher than the sample rate of the input channels S Filters do not apply to math channels. These channels are always unfiltered. ..... ..... ..... Matrix computation function The MX878 enables 4 parallel matrix computations each with a maximum of 6 input and output quantities and 36 constants to be performed. Generic formula: Fx = a1*Ufx + a2*Ufy + a3*Ufz + a4*Umx + a5*Umy + a6*Umz etc. for Fy, Fz, Mx, My, Mz The ”Matrix computation” function allows mathematical compensation of interdependencies (crosstalk) of multi−component transducers for force and torque measurement. The maximum data rate of the input and output quantities is 1200 Hz (< 1 ms computation time). The computed output signals can be scaled and output as filtered analog voltages by the same module. The computed signals can also be distributed (isochronously) to the FireWire bus in real time and output via CAN bus or EtherCAT (MX471: CAN bus. MX878: EtherCAT bus). Scaling of the input and output quantities must always be ensured. An EXCEL compensation matrix can be copied directly to the matrix parameterization (Ctrl + C, Ctrl + V).

A peak unit may operate in different modes: S RUN: peak value will be continuously updated S HOLD: last peak value will be ”frozen” S PEAK: peak detection enabled S FOLLOW: peak detection disabled, i.e. the channel yields the original signal of the input channel The following combinations are possible: Graph for MAX−PEAK−RUN Graph for MAX−PEAK−HOLD Graph for MAX−Follow−HOLD This also applies to the minimum values.

The module then routes this data to an analog output. QuantumX HBM 134 Functions and outputs You need to connect all modules via FireWire (or use a backplane) for the MX878 to become operational! Refer to the ”ISO” column in the catman channel configuration window. This column indicates if a channel provides its data via the isochronous link (indicated by a symbol). Click the column or use the column’s context menu to enable or disable isochronous transfer for a channel. Providing the data via isochronous transfer may use up significant computing power on the module (in particular on the MX410 and MX460 high−speed modules). Do not activate the isochronous transfer needlessly! MX878 signal generator The MX878 has eight signal generators. The signals (e.g. set profiles for controlling uni− or multiaxial actuators) can be individually generated and assigned to analog outputs. The following signal forms are available (to be defined in an ASCII file): Constant, sine, rectangle, triangle Depending on their type, the signal forms are described by the following parameters: Level, frequency, duty ratio The signals are buffered and described as follows: Repetition cycle (continuous, triggered) Point in time A buffer that has been filled before can be output with a defined number of repetition cycles, continuously and triggered, starting at a specific point in time. In addition, a second buffer is available. While one buffer is output the second buffer can be filled. Output of the second buffer can be activated immediately or when the first buffer has been output. At the end of the sequence, the last output value is held. HBM QuantumX Functions and outputs 7.4 135 MX471 The modular QuantumX data acquisition system can be individually assembled. FireWire enables quantities measured using amplifiers or computed values to be transmitted to specific modules in real time (isochronous signals). For example: To send a measured temperature as a so−called ”Process Data Object” (PDO) over the CANbus via a specific node of the MX471, the temperature signal simply has to be dragged onto the node using drag & drop. Parameterization is then performed automatically. The CAN message needs to be completed in the corresponding dialog. A parameterized MX471 node enables any signals or measured quantities to be cyclically sent as CAN messages. The CAN messages are sent to the CANbus at the data rate set for the source signal. With a data rate > 4.800 Hz, the transmission rate is limited. A configurable divider enables the transmission rate on the CANbus to be generally reduced. It is essential to specify via software the baud rate and, if necessary, activation of a termination resistor (bus termination) to ensure correct bus parameterization. Parameterizing the CAN message requires: S Definition of an identifier (decimal CAN−ID) and the corresponding format (11 or 29 bit) S If necessary, divider to reduce the transmission rate. Signals are sent using the 4−Byte−Float format. When parameterization of the node has been completed, a type *.dbc CAN database can be generated. This database makes configuring a receiver node easier. Note In general, a CAN network enables both message types (standard/extended) to be used. No analysis of Sync messages or Remote frames is made. The four CAN nodes are handled with equal priority. A node parameterized as sender, works as an autonomous gateway and does no longer require connection to a PC. SDOs are not supported; the MX471 can thus not be considered as a CANopen slave. The individual nodes’ statuses are directly displayed at the respective connection point. CAUTION If a CAN node uses an incorrect baud rate for transmission over the bus, the entire data transmission on the bus may fail.
