QuantumX - the universal data acquisition system with new analog output interface

The MX878 features eight analog voltage outputs that can be individually configured enabling system signals to be output as scaled and filtered values in the range of ±10 V. Any amplifier signal can be used as a signal source to simplify the individual monitoring or forwarding of system signals, such as measured values.

In addition, the module increases the flexibility and capabilities of the QuantumX data acquisition system by providing integrated local intelligence that enables measured values to be analyzed, or set off against each other, in real time using algebraic operations. The module also features functions for the computation of peak value or root mean square value. Computed signals can be made available in the system in real time or they can be output directly.

The MX878 module is designed to complement the powerful range of QuantumX amplifiers. All functions and outputs can be configured directly using the QuantumX Assistant software, LabView® Vis. Alternatively, users can utilize individual programs via the integrated QuantumX programming interface (API) for .NET or .COM while HBM’s catmanAP software provides comprehensive options for configuration, data acquisition, visualization and analysis.

Typical applications for the MX878 QuantumX module include test bench applications involving the conversion of various transducer signals.
