ES600.2 - User Guide
15
The ES600.2 module synchronizes all connected modules and their measuring
channels. Such a system offers a high time stability with the support of INCA.
A phase shift of the signals is ruled out and a time-synchronous scanning of the
measuring channels of the connected modules and module arrangements is
ensured.
The ES600.2 module and the corresponding cables are designed for use in the
lab, at the test bench and in the passenger cell of motor vehicles.
Properties
The most important properties of the ES600.2 at a glance:
• Ethernet switch with 10/100/1000 Mbit/s data rate
• A host connection (upstream, Gigabit Ethernet)
• A host connection (upstream, Fast Ethernet)
• Six connections for compatible modules (downstream, Fast Ethernet)
• Status indicator for every connection
• Sequential switch-on of the connected modules to avoid high start-up
peaks
• Automatic standby function for the connected modules
• Precise synchronization of all connected modules and their measuring
channels
• Automotive-capable module that is suitable for use in the development
environment and in the vehicle on test courses.
– Electrical isolation of the channels from each other, from device
ground and from the supply voltage
– Immune to ambient conditions (temperature, EMC)
– Wide supply voltage range
– High level of mechanical stability and robustness

Housing
For the ES600.2, a housing with connections on the device front side and the
device rear side is used. The robust metal housing of the ES600.2 is fitted with
non-slip plastic feet.
It can easily be screwed onto a carrier system for fastening in a vehicle or lab.
The housings of this device family can also be connected with each other
quickly and easily (see chapter 6.1 on page 23).
