Function Introduction
For further details on each function, see the MX100 Data Acquisition Unit User’s Manual
(IM MX100-01E) and the MX100 Standard Software User’s Manual (IM MX180-01E)
provided on the accompanying CD-ROM.
Overview of the MX100
The MX100 consists of the main module equipped with an Ethernet port, input/output
modules that perform input or output of signals, and the base plate that attaches and
connects all of these. The main module and the PC is connected locally via the Ethernet
interface in a one-to-one relationship. By installing the MX100 Standard Software into the
PC, you can use the PC to configure the acquisition conditions of the measured data of
the MX100 and monitor or retrieve the measured data. The MX100 Standard Software
allows a single PC to connect to a single MX100 unit (up to 60 channels in terms of the
number of input channels). MXLOGGER, a software program sold separately, allows one
to 20 PCs to connect to a single MX100 unit (up to 1200 channels in terms of the number
of input channels).
