High-Speed Multi-Channel Capability
The table below provides reference information on the maximum number of measurable channels in relevant measurement intervals (when using Yokogawa's proprietary software):
The relationship between measurement intervals and the number of channels largely depends on the performance of the PC. The actual performance may differ from that shown in the table.
<PC System Requirements>
CPU: Pentium 4 3.2 GHz; Memory: 1 GB; OS: Windows 2000; Hard disk: 160 GB
Communication interface: Ethernet 100Base-TX
Multi-Interval Measurement
Three types of measurement intervals can be used in a single system in various combinations. Measurement intervals are specified for each module. It is also possible to set different types of input modules to the same measurement interval or to set the same type of input modules to different measurement intervals. Twelve measurement intervals are available as userselectable options: 10 ms, 50 ms, 100 ms, 200 ms, 500 ms, 1 s, 2 s, 5 s, 10 s, 20 s, 30 s and 60 s. Please note, however, that measurement intervals of 10/50 ms cannot be set to the Medium-speed Universal Input Module (MX110-UNV-M10).
Examples of Setting Measurement Intervals
|
Multi-interval systems can be flexibly built for each module as shown in the figure below. Three colors are used to indicate the three types of measurement intervals. |
Monitor Window Using Yokogawa's Proprietary PC Software
|
The window shows measurement values by measurement intervals. Measurement can be performed while confirming rapidly-changing signals and slowly-changing signals simultaneously. |
A: Measurement of sine waves at 0.5 Hz with a measurement interval of 100 ms
B: Measurement of sine waves at 8 Hz with a measurement interval of 10 ms
C: Measurement of sine waves at 1 Hz with a measurement interval of 50 ms
