Input Channels; Input Channel Generic Parameters - HBM SomatXR CX23-R User Manual

CX23-R and EX23-R
To apply sensor configurations from imported HBM sensor databases, first expand
the Sensors panel. The Sensors panel contains the imported sensor databases and
their sensor definitions. For very large databases, it may take several seconds to
display the database contents for the first time.
Drag and drop the sensor definition from the Sensors panel onto the desired channel.
When a sensor definition is successfully applied to a channel, this is indicated by the
SDB sync icon (
indicated by the SDB edited icon (
NOTE
Sensor database parameters can be applied to TEDS sensors. However, if the
channel is re-synced to its TEDS parameters, the sensor database reference is
removed.
4.3 Input channels
4.3.1 Input channel generic parameters
Many parameters are common across all channels and are displayed in the All
channels tab:
Connection: A unique hardware identifier created by the system.
TEDS: For MX module channels with TEDS sensors connected, an icon is
displayed with the TEDS status. Not in edit dialog. See
sensors for more information.
SDB: For MX module channels with
displayed with the SDB status. Not in edit dialog.
Reading: Current value of the channel. Show the readings by selecting the
desired channels and clicking Live update. Not in edit dialog.
Units: For most channel types, the user can enter the physical units as desired;
however, for some channel types (i.e., most temperature channels, and any
bridge channel that uses the Strain gage scaling mode), the user can only select
an option provided in the drop down list box presented.
Name: The channel name must be unique and contain valid characters (invalid
characters are single and double quotes, '\', '@', '#', '&', '<' and '>'). Invalid
channel names are 'true' and 'false' (case sensitive).
Description: Enter an optional detailed description of the channel.
Measurand: Enter an optional measurement type.
Data type: The format of the channel data output (read only).
Collect: Select the Collect checkbox to write the channel data to the SIE data file
during a test run.
Sample rate: Select the desired channel sample rate. If the sample rate changes,
all dependent computed channels and DataModes™ are changed automatically.
Filter type: For applicable channels, select the type of filter for the channel to
None, Linear phase (FIR), Butterworth (FIR), Butterworth (IIR) or Bessel (IIR).
