9.2 Parameters and setting ranges
9.2.1 Display parameters
♦ <Vibration value>
The parameter „Vibration value“ displays the current measured value.
RMS value
Current measured value with units and
signal detection
♦ <Unit>
The unit of the measurement value is displayed together with the
measured value. The unit is determined in the Sensor block.
Unit m/s², g, mm/s, in/s, µm, mils, eu, mV
9.2.2 Configuration parameters
♦ <Detector>
Selection of the desired signal detection type for the measurement.
Detector RMS, peak, peak-peak
♦ <Measuring time>
RMS evaluation:
For the RMS measurement the measurement time parameter
corresponds to the averaging time. The averaging time determines the
time period over which the RMS measurement will be evaluated. The
averaging time can be changed within the setup range.
Setup hint:
Longer measurement times improve the reproducibility and reliability of the
measurement at the cost of the time factor.
Shorter measurement times improve the time factor at the cost of
measurement reproducibilityt.
With short avergaging times the measurement result may vary. These
variations can only be avoided when the averaging time is set longer than
the largest time period in the signal to be evaluated.
If measurement time is set to 0 sec, there will be NO measurements
and monitoring at all! So measurement time MUST be >0 sec!
