Module Synchronization - HBM SomatXR MX Series User Manual

2. Use a 1-KAB2107 cable to connect the CX23-R ETHERNET1 connector to the
EX23-R switch.
NOTE
For optimal data throughput performance, do not use both CX23-R
Ethernet ports when using EX23-R modules.
To use multiple EX23-R modules, connect any Ethernet port on
the new EX23-R module to any open EX23-R Ethernet port.
3. Use 1-KAB2100 cables to connect the MX module X100 connectors to the
EX23-R switch.

2.6 Module synchronization

If measurement signals need to be referenced over time with each other for
processing and analysis, they must be recorded synchronously.
All SomatXR modules can be synchronized among themselves. This ensures
simultaneous measurement on all channels. All the analog-digital converter rates,
measuring rates and bridge excitation voltages are also synchronized.
To achieve a precise reference over time, the applicable channels must be
parameterized with the same filter settings. No automatic runtime correction is
carried out. The filter runtimes are shown in the data sheet. After booting and
successful synchronization, the system LED shows green. If synchronization is
disturbed, or not yet established, the system LED shows orange.
Time stamps are appended to the measured values in the following format:
