Define the general properties
Select the General tab.
Whenever you click to a property field, you will see its description in the comment
area at the bottom of the tab.
Define the properties:
Basic:
Locked:
If true, the module can only be changed by authorized users.
Enabled:
If false, this module is excluded from acquisition.
Name:
Enter a comprehensive name for the module.
Module No.: Enter a module number. ibaPDA gives numbers automatically
in a chronological order. However, you may prefer a different
order later in the data file for analysis. The module number
determines the order in the signal tree in ibaAnalyzer.
Timebase: An integer multiple of the FOB-M Link timebase, see below.
FOB-M:
Link timebase: Set the time to a value between 40 µs and 2000 µs.
Note: The Link timebase is valid for all other links that work in
M mode.
The module timebase (see above) must be equal or an integer
multiple of this link timebase.
Also, the general acquisition timebase of ibaPDA (configured
in the “General”
branch of the I/O manager tree) must be an
integer multiple of the M mode timebase.
Important information
Note that the difference between FOB-M link time base and general ibaPDA acquisition
time base must not be too high to avoid exceeding the buffer limits.
iba AG recommends a multiple between 25 and 100.
Device address: address 0..95, according to the rotary switch settings S1
and S2

Define the signal parameters.
