5.5.1 Main Rotor Track
Rotor tracking may be performed using the Strobex or the
FasTrak
®
blade trackers. All of the Vibrex 2000 product line
supports Strobex tracking while only the Enhanced Vibrex 2000
Plus supports the optical tracking using the FasTrak
®
. The
FasTrak
®
feature usually requires less setup time, is more
accurate and automatically acquires, records track data and
provides track solutions.
5.5.1.1
Main Rotor Track (Strobex) (V2K and
V2K+)
Do main rotor Strobex track operations as follows:
1. Install a single interrupter on the rotating swashplate, in the
same way as the user would for any track-and-balance
operation.
NOTE: If the aircraft installation normally uses a double
interrupter with the other single interrupters, remove the
double interrupter and other single interrupters so there is
only one single interrupter on the rotating swashplate.
2. Mount the magnetic pickup, in the same way as the user
would normally.
3. Connect the magnetic pickup cable to the channel A
connector of the Vibrex unit.
4. Connect the tracking cable to the serial port on the connector
subpanel.
5. Connect the Strobex to the five-pin connector of the tracking
cable.
6. Connect the two-pin receptacle to and appropriate dc power
source.
The following dc power is necessary for each of the different
Strobex models:
