PC-based Data Acquisition Unit

MX100

Software

MX100 Standard Software

This software is used to connect a single MX unit for performing data acquisition (it is not possible to connect multiple MX units). It includes three software elements: the integration monitor, viewer, and calibration.

Integration Monitor Software
This software performs real-time monitoring and logging of measured data. It consists of six menus: Monitor Window, Detailed Display Setting, Channel Setting, Acquisition Condition, System Setting, and Connection/disconnection.



Monitor Window
This window is used to monitor measured data in real-time. It enables waveform displays and digital displays.
Acquisition Condition
This menu is used to set various conditions (such as measurement intervals/data save intervals, measurement start/end conditions, or file name designation) for data acquisitions.
Monitor Window Acquisition Condition

Detailed Display Setting
This menu is used to set data display states (such as waveform colors) in the monitor window.
System Setting
This menu is used to decide module configurations, etc. Module configurations are shown in easily understood diagrams.
Detailed Display Setting System Setting

Channel Setting
This menu is used to enter individual settings (such as range settings) for each input channel or to set computation channels (such as the input of computing equations).
Connection/Disconnection (Easy to Set Up)
The connected MX100 is identified automatically. Once connection setting information is provided, it will be retained. When the system restarts, the MX100 will be connected automatically without making network settings.

Viewer Software
This software is intended to re-display saved data. It enables waveform displays, digital displays, cursor displays, interval arithmetic, and other functions.
Calibration Software
This software is intended to efficiently carry out the calibration of universal input modules.

MXLOGGER (Optional PC Software)

MXLOGGER is used to connect multiple MX units (up to 20 units) for data acquisition (one MX unit can also be connected). It consists of software elements (setting, logger (for saving data), monitor, and viewer) and the monitor server. The monitor server function is used to enable connections with Yokogawa's data logging software, "DAQLOGGER." It is effective when combining MX units with Yokogawa’s data acquisition equipment such as DARWIN and DAQSTATION.

API for MX100/DARWIN (Optional)

If users wish to create their own data acquisition software, please use this API. The API consists of a suite of functions to communicate with MX100/DARWIN. The suite of functions contains DLL (dynamic link library). API makes it possible to create data acquisition software dedicated to the MX, or data acquisition software combining the MX and DARWIN, or data acquisition software dedicated to DARWIN. Three languages (Visual C, Visual C++, and Visual Basic) are supported.
