Measurement modes
The following measurement modes are available in SHAFTALIGN touch:
l Active Clock – This is the default measurement mode used to measure horizontal stand-
ard coupled machines. In this mode, measurement points are taken at any 3, 4 or 5 of
the eight available sectors. A minimum of three measurement points is required to
determine the alignment condition, but more measurement points over a wider rota-
tional angle is recommended.
Note
The default number of Active Clock measurement points is set in configuration
under the menu item 'Default settings'.
l Static measurement – This is the default measurement mode used to measure vertical
mounted machines (four feet or flange-mounted). It is also used measure horizontal
machines with uncoupled and nonrotatable shafts.
