4 LED indicator lights 1.5.1 Analog Input BNC Connector The MCM-204 module is equipped with four BNC connectors to receive voltage signals from various sources. For sensors requir- ing excitation, such as accelerometers or microphones, the IEPE excitation current can be enabled to reduce the wiring effort.
1.5.3 Temperature Sensor Input The MCM-204 allows you to monitor the temperature of a target device or environment between -50 to 150°C using the tempera- ture sensor provided. Connect the temperature sensor leads to the connector as shown.
MCM-204 1.5.4 Reset Pin for Factory Default Restore the MCM-204 to its factory default settings using a paper clip or similar item inserted into the reset pin hole button and pressing the reset button for three seconds until the device reboots.
Leading EDGE COMPUTING 1.5.5 Ethernet Ports The MCM-204 has two GbE ports with one MAC address. Either port can be used for connecting to a host PC, leaving the second port available for cascading. The default static IP address is 169.254.1.1.
Ethernet port to cascade them together. Cascading reduces the number of ports needed to connect devices. If connecting MCM-204 devices in a daisy chain, only use a sequence configuration: do not use a ring configuration. A ring configuration will cause network communications to fail.
2. Turn on the power source. If the power was connected correctly, the front panel red PWR LED will light up. If the MCM-204 needs to be shut down, turn off the power source. To remove the power wires, use a flat head screwdriver to push the orange slots on the terminal block and then pull out the wires.
Many distributed machine condition monitoring applications acquire device status periodically, for example, every minute, or hourly. The MCM-204 retains captured data in the REST data for- mat. Especially in IT systems, user applications frequently adopt REST APIs because they are intuitive. The MCM-204 emulates all...

MCM-204 3.2.2 Peripheral Peripheral digital input/output and temperature sensor information is shown on this page. The Status area shows the current status of the peripherals. Select REFRESH to update the status. Four digital input/output devices can be used. Each can be adjusted for either input or output mode.
Mission Management A mission is a setting of I/O parameters with an intended output method. The MCM-204 will execute the same settings even after a reboot, so if Repeat Times is set to 0 (endless data capture), the MCM-204 will run its previous mission after reboot. To configure the I/O parameters for another mission, delete the current mission.
MCM-204 3.2.5 Change Password This page is used to change the password of each MCM-204, whether there is a single device or multiple daisy chained devices. It is recommended that each device have a unique password since the default password for every MCM-204 is identical.
Leading EDGE COMPUTING 3.2.7 System Setting This page manages various system settings. Hostname: The device’s hostname can be modified by entering a new hostname here and clicking the APPLY button. A hostname can be used instead of an IP address to access a specific device’s web console.
MCM-204 Data Keep: By default, the MCM-204 stores history data only in RAM and the data is lost when the system reboots. Select Enable to also save history data to internal storage. The amount of disk space allocated for this purpose is 300MB. When that limit is...
Leading EDGE COMPUTING Customization Library Upload: This function runs custom formu- las on the MCM-204 according to a given file. See “Custom Filter- ing Algorithms” on page 42. Firmware Upgrade: A firmware upgrade file can be uploaded to the MCM-204 through this feature. These files will periodically be provided through the product web page: www.adlinktech.com/Products/IoT_solutions/Smart_Factory/MCM-204...
MCM-204 3.2.8 TCP Socket The MCM-204 supports TCP socket communication as a socket client. Enter the IP address and port number of the remote TCP socket server. Different analog input channels can be mapped to different ports. Select ADD RULE to add the TCP server to the Socket Connection List.
Leading EDGE COMPUTING 3.3 DAQ Mission The MCM-204 performs excellent vibration detection with an ana- log IEPE accelerator connected. Related parameters can be set via the Device Setting page. Figure 3-14: Device Configuration Trigger Source allows the data capture function to be triggered from a particular source via analog and digital triggers.
MCM-204 Repeat Times is the total number of times the data is to be cap- tured. For endlessly repeating data capture, set to 0. Warning! If you are using a customized algorithm as your Data Type, it is strongly recommended to set Repeat Times to 1 for the first attempt, then to 10 for a limited data capture test.

Leading EDGE COMPUTING The MCM-204 has built-in functionality for several common data types and also supports user-customized data types, as detailed in the table below. If two or more data types are required for an analog input channel, select ADD DATATYPE for each additional data type.
MCM-204 ADD CONDITION provides an event warning mechanism. When a given condition is triggered, a warning message will display on the Data Condition page. Figure 3-16: Add Condition After the desired settings have been configured, click APPLY to activate your changes.

4.1 Usage Behaviors IEPE sensors transmit raw data to the MCM-204 which can then be filtered to other kinds of data types that are more application appropriate, such as overall vibration values (ISO 10816) for mechanical vibration data.
Leading EDGE COMPUTING 4.1.1 Web Console The MCM-204 has a built-in, easy-to-use web console that imple- ments all device functionalities. By logging into the web console through a connected host PC, users can see all of the device’s current settings, each feature it provides, and any vibration data it has collected.
MCM-204 4.1.3 Continuous Data To use continuous data mode, first install the Streaming SDK, available for download on the MCM-204 product web page: www.adlinktech.com/Products/IoT_solutions/Smart_Factory/MCM-204 After installation, C/C++ sample code and function references can be found in the C:\ADLINK\MCM\MCM200 folder. Before using the Streaming SDK, DDS must be enabled via the MCM-204 web console.
The conventional message exchange pattern of the MCM-204 for Periodic Polling and Continuous Data modes is request-response, with the MCM-204 serving as responder. After receiving a query from the host, the MCM-204 responds with the requested data. However, for some applications it’s desirable for the host server to passively wait for data from the client.
