Interfaces
Communication interfaces such as USB port or EtherCAT or CANbus are available. The
device has 8 configurable analog outputs (±10 V and 4...20 mA among others). UART
interface serves to control the measuring amplifier via the Raspberry PI (not for versions with
EtherCat).
The interface protocol of USB and UART is identical and described in a separate
documentation (ba-gsvcom.pdf). Standardized fieldbus protocols EtherCAT and CANopen
reside in the lower protocol layers and a separate document describes the application layer
(ba-gsv8canopen.pdf and ba-gsv8ethercat_en.pdf).
Software
The Windows program BlueDAQ with graphical user interface and the console terminal
program BX8 terminal are suitable. A Windows function library (MEGSBX8w32.dll) with
commented C header is available for self-programming users and a LabVIEW library with
wrapper VIs for this DLL for programming with LabVIEW ©.
Features
There are 8 analog inputs available. They are individually configurable as:
Strain gauge input for full bridges in 4 and 6 wire technology or
Strain gauge input for half bridges or
Strain gauge input for quarter bridges 120 ohm, 350 ohm, 1k Ohm or
Single-ended input ±10 V or
Input for PT1000 temperature sensor
The strain gauge supply voltage is adjustable between 8.75 V, 5.00 V and 2.5 V, assigned to
input sensitivities 2 mV/V, 3.5 mV/V or 7 mV/V.

Resolutionofstraingaugeinput
The resolution of measuring amplifier depends on the adjusted input sensitivity and the data
frequency. The input sensitivity correlates to the bridge supply voltage: 8.75V with 2.0 mV/V,
5V with 3.5 mV/V, and 2.5V with 7 mV/V.
The recommended excitation voltage of 8.75V is only for sensors of minimum 1k Ohm bridge
resistance and sufficient construction size. Miniature sensors under 500g weight should not use a
bridge supply of 8.75V.

At a data frequency of 10 Hz the measuring range from 0 to +3.5 is quantised in 2.0 105
steps.
The noise amplitude is 17.5 nV/V.

2.0107.14⋅10
NoiseAmplitudeatAnalogOutput
The noise amplitude at the analog output is approx. 25mV (peak values) or 10mV
(RMS). It is due to the galvanic isolation of the analog output. The frequency
components of the noise signal are predominantly at frequencies above 300 kHz and
higher. The use of oversampling with subsequent digital filtering (e.g. arithmetic
averaging) in the subsequent analog-digital conversion can greatly attenuate noise
signals.
Digitalfilters
The BX8 adjusts automatically the analog filter and the decimating digital input filter. The
user provides only the required number of measured values per second (data frequency),
which is send via USB-interface or made available to the field bus. Additionally there are two
adjustable digital filters: 1x FIR filter and 1x IIR filter. Each filter is individually adjustable
for any of the 8 input channels. The measured data signal processing chain performs FIR
filtering first, and then IIR filtering.
FiniteImpulseresponseFilter
The FIR filter is a low pass filter with which the filter order N and the cut-off frequency CF
can be set. The cut-off frequency refers to a signal frequency already attenuated by -3dB.

This corresponds to a factor of approx. 0.7; frequency attenuation occurs for all higher
frequencies.
The filter order determines the maximum and minimum adjustable cut-off frequency CF in
terms of the data rate Fa, and the steepness of the attenuation range. Higher orders have a
steeper slope, i.e. an increase in the signal frequency causes the attenuation to increase faster.
The so-called step response is slower at higher orders however, i.e. it always takes N+1-
measured values until the filter’s output value corresponds to the input value.

10 0.07 0.270
8 0.09 0.340
6 0.12 0.350
4 0.18 0.410
InfiniteImpulseResponseFilter
The infinite Impulse Response Filter (IIR) of fourth order allows four different filter types:
1) Low pass filter: Sensor signals at low frequency (including DC size with f=0) pass
through the filter, signals at a higher frequency are attenuated.
2) High pass filter: Sensor signals at low frequency (including DC size with f=0) are
attenuated, signals at a higher frequency pass through the filter. Note: Only
frequencies below half the measured data rate are processed. The measuring amplifier
includes an analog-to-digital sampling system, which in itself acts as a low pass.
3) Band pass filter: Signals permitted to pass through within a frequency range,
attenuation occurs for signal above or below this range.
4) Band stop filter (‘Notch filter’): Attenuation of signals occurs within a frequency
range, signals that are above or below attenuation range may pass through.
The cut-off frequency is configurable for low and high pass filters. The cut-off frequency
refers to a signal frequency already attenuated by -3dB. This corresponds to a factor of

approx. 0.7; frequency attenuation occurs for all frequencies above for low pass and lying
below for high pass.
Configure both Bandpass and Band stop filters with two cut-off frequencies, the upper and
the lower. Attenuation by -3 dB also occurs here. The two cut-off frequencies may not be the
same. Signal frequencies lying between cut-off frequencies may pass through for the band
pass filter, and attenuate for the band stop filter.
The maximum (and the minimum if need be) of each cut-off frequency is dependent on the
measured data rate. Cut-off frequencies can be set to (0.49 * measured data rate), i.e. almost
to half.
Each individual channel is configurable with a filter and optionally switched on and off. The
configuration also remains the same for filters switched off.
