Chapter 5 Collecting and Reviewing Data
Connect a Transducer to the Data Collector
Follow these steps to connect a transducer to the data collector.
1. Match the red dot on the connector to the red dot on the data collector.
2. Insert the transducer cable into either Connector A or B on the data
collector.
Do not turn or twist the connector.
• If you are using an external tachometer signal for phase measurements,
connect your tachometer signal to the POWER/USB/TRIGGER
connector on the data collector.
• You must also set the Trigger parameter in the Setup Utility screen to
External, otherwise the instrument uses the internal Laser Tachometer
to collect the measurement.
See Configure the Data Collection Options on page 57
for more information on
setting the Trigger parameter.
Select the Data Collection Options
There are many options that options affect the measurement, the data collection
process, and the data display. The Dynamix 2500 data collector stores these
options even when its powered off. However, you should check these options
each time you start data collection. The options are located in the Instrument
Configuration screen.
See Configure the Data Collection Options on page 57
for instructions on how
to select the data collection options.
WARNING: To prevent damage to the cable and cable pins, take care
when connecting the transducer to the data collector.
