Versatile DAQ for synchronous multichannel measurements

The MX410B captures sensor signals with exceptional precision and speed using its 24‑bit ADC, high sampling rates, and extensive transducer compatibility. Each of the four channels is individually configurable, allowing simultaneous measurement of mechanical, electrical, and acoustic parameters. Real‑time peak and rms computation, patented background adjustment and calibration (AutoCal), and robust electrical isolation ensure stable, reliable measurement results across a wide range of dynamic test conditions.

Typical applications

Built for high‑dynamic environments, the MX410B supports a broad application spectrum, including:

• Automotive and aerospace testing (for example, vibration, sound, crash tests)
• Machine building and industrial R&D tasks involving force, pressure, displacement, and acceleration measurements
• Acoustic and NVH analyses supported by the module’s high dynamic range of 160 dB for vibration and sound measurements
• Highly dynamic test bench analyses, from component characterization to system‑level evaluation

Ready for any system architecture

With built-in TEDS support that provides automatic transducer identification, test setup is simplified. The MX410B also integrates effortlessly into the QuantumX modular data acquisition system for scalable distributed or centralized setups with synchronized measurements provided by FireWire and Ethernet PTPv2 support.

When you add in catman^® software for data recording and data analysis, you achieve a true plug‑and‑measure setup where torque, force, pressure data can be immediately visualized, stored or digitally forwarded.

MX410 can be purchased either stand-alone or as part of a software/hardware bundle:

• Basic data acquisition and visualization: MX410B + catmanEASY
• Data acquisition, data visualization, analysis and report generation: MX410B + catmanAP
