Chapter 3. Internal Modules

The CMG-3EX-EAM is composed of three internal modules:

• The triaxial sensor assembly;

• The analogue-to-digital converter (digitiser); and

• The embedded acquisition module.

Each of these modules is described in detail in a separate manual. The sensor itself is described in MAN-C3E-0001, the analogue-to-digital converter module is described in MAN-C24-0001 and the embedded acquisition module is described in MAN-EAM-0003. If you wish to transmit data in CD1.1 format, you will also need MAN-EAM-1100.

Many common tasks can be performed in more than one way. For example, mass locking and unlocking can be initiated from the digitiser's command line, from the web interface of the embedded acquisition module, using a copy of Scream! software or by using the push-button controls on the top of the instrument.

This document provides additional information specific to the CMG-3EX-EAM and refers the reader, where necessary, to the manuals mentioned above for operational details which are not peculiar to this instrument.
