MX modules

All SomatXR MX modules can be combined with MX modules of the Quan­
tumX (MX...) series and can be connected to the CX22 data recorder and the
CX27 Industrial Ethernet Gateway. There are some limitations when using the
discontinued data recorder CX23-R and the eDAQXR and eDAQXR-lite CPU
layers (see the corresponding manuals).
The connection interfaces on the rear are identical to Ethernet and FireWire.
The MX modules of the SomatXR series offer additional functions. In principle,
they can be synchronized using the FireWire or Ethernet-based PTPv2 proto­
col (IEEE1588). Furthermore, decimal data rates are available in addition to
the "Classic HBM Data Rates".
