Measurement modes
The following measurement modes are available for horizontal machine configurations:
l "Continuous Sweep measurement" on page47 –This mode is used to measure standard
coupled machines. The shafts are rotated continuously in machine rotational direction
until acceptable measurement quality is attained.
l "Pass mode" on page55 – Pass measurement mode is used for uncoupled and non-
rotatable shafts (one or both). The laser is rotated past the sensor at different rotational
positions.
l "Multipoint measurement" on page51 – This is the mode used to measure uncoupled
shafts, non-rotational shafts, sleeve bearings [journal (radial) bearings], white metal
bearings , shafts that are hard to turn, shafts with herky-jerky rotation, situations with
long spans or severe misalignment that will readily cause the beam to fall out of range.
l "Static measurement" on page53 – This mode is used to measure vertical mounted
machines.
