5 The signal-flow chart
The signal-flow chart describes the functional construction of the monitoring
system.
Here all the measuring and monitoring tasks with their signal-flow
components are displayed. Each signal-flow component is characterised by
its properties and parameters. The entire functionality is a result of the
cooperative operation of the individual components.
The basic properties of a measuring and monitoring task are defined by the
instrument’s implemented firmware. These properties cannot be changed at
the instrument.
Parameter settings, (e.g. limit setpoints, relay switching mode, averaging
times, DC output characteristics, etc.) can be edited using the User-terminal.
These setting options are identified in parameter configuration sheet.
Each VIBROCONTROL 6000 Compact monitor has a valid signal-flow chart
and a valid parameter configuration sheet. In this signal-flow chart and the
parameter configuration sheet all existing available components in the
system, with their links, are displayed in an overview.
NOTE:
Please document all settings that are changed so the fastest possible
assistance can be provided in case of an error. The changes can be
documented in either a parameter setting sheet.
What information is evident in the signal-flow chart?
♦ The components on the left (red frame) are assigned for acquisition of
the input signals. These input components form the interfaces for the
sensors.
♦ Components on the right (yellow frame) are assigned the task of outputs
for events that occur. These form the interfaces to external, peripheral
electronic equipment.
♦ The signal-flow chart is to be used to identify in which functional
relationship the components are linked to one another.
♦ The type identification of the basic configuration, material number and
serial number are entered in the footline of the signal-flow chart. This
information must correspond with the information on the name plate of
the VIBROCONTROL 6000 Compact monitor !
