System Configuration

Connection between a single MX unit and a single PC (measurement of 24 channels/10 ms or 60 channels/100 ms)

One MX unit enables data acquisition on up to 24 channels at a measurement interval of 10 ms, or up to 60 channels at a measurement interval of 100 ms (six modules installed in both cases).
Input signal: DC voltageThermocuple, RTD,Digital input (Mixed input possible) Output signal: Digital output	Setting up the System The MX and PC are connected via a hub and a straight Ethernet cable. Alternatively, they can be connected using a cross cable alone, without using the hub. PC Software In a one-to-one connection, the MX100 standard software included with the main module facilitates easy building of data acquisition environments.

One MX unit consists of a combination of a main module, input/output modules, and a base plate. This configuration centers on the main module.

Connection between multiple MX units and a single PC

For measurement of up to 1,200 channels and the use of MXLOGGER

Example of a system with multiple MX units:

Setting Up the System with multiple MX units

Setting up the System
The MX units and the PC are connected by means of a hub and straight Ethernet cables.

PC Software
Acquisition of data from multiple MX units is well-supported by Yokogawa’s software “MXLOGGER” (optional). MXLOGGER enables data acquisitions of up to 20 MX units (one unit has inputs of up to 60 channels, or 1,200 channels on 20 units).

Please note that the shortest measurement interval of MXLOGGER depends on the system's total number of channels and the PC's performance. For guidelines on measurement intervals and the number of channels, please visit....

If users wish to create their own data acquisition software, there is no limit to the number of MX units that can be integrated with a single PC software element. Please note, however, that if conditions with heavy loads (such as short measurement intervals with many units) are set to the PC and its software, data will not be acquired in time and some data may be lost.
