Below you will find examples of the connection to the ibaN-2E card. The data path is set in ibaPDA for the respective ibaNet-E device. ibaNet-E-capable devices from iba provide an ibaNet interface, such as ibaM-COM, etc.
Measurement data acquisition via ibaM-COM
If an ibaN-2E card is used in the ibaPDA computer, it is possible to synchronously sample the data with up to 1 μs. To do this, the ibaPDA computer and ibaM-COM must be connected directly via a dedicated Ethernet network.

Measurement data acquisition via standard Ethernet
An ibaN-2E card is used in the ibaPDA computer. Transmission is carried out via an existing network (standard Ethernet). Switches can be integrated into the Ethernet network.

Network components such as switches, but also the utilization of the standard network can have an additional negative impact on transmission quality and typical synchronous sampling.
Measurement data acquisition with OEM devices via connectionless connection
An ibaN-2E card is used in the ibaPDA computer, which communicates with the connected devices via standard Ethernet components, e.g. a switch or OEM devices. The connectionless communication profile is used for this.
