Walk-through: Taking Recordings
The following instructions assume that you have already created
your machine structures and have assigned parameter sets to the
measurement locations.
1. Connect your sensors to the appropriate measurement
locations. If you are taking tachometer readings, set up the
tachometer also.
2. Ensure the folder containing the machines you want to
monitor is selected; the name of the currently selected folder
will display on the Main Menu beside the 'Folders' label. If
you need to select a different folder press Folders and
use the arrow keys to highlight your choice then press
This loads the folder and all its machines into current
memory and returns you to the Main Menu.
3. Press Review Vibration to display the machines within
this folder. If necessary, select Save by pressing (for a
recording this should normally be set to Auto Save + Warn.
Refer to Recording Save Options on page 91 for more
information).
4. Use the left-hand arrow keys to scroll up and down and
press Expand Navigator repeatedly to expand out a
machine so that its points and locations become visible.
