MX100
Data Acquisition System
Software |
|
|
|
Standard Software for the Main Module MX100 |
|
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.
|
 |
| |
|
|
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.
|
 |
| |
|
|
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
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. (DAQLOGGER is scheduled to be capable
of supporting MXLOGGER’s monitor server function in July 2003.) |

|
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. |
