4.1 Preparation
Controlling device technology
It is important to be familiar with the device technology and its functions to achieve op-
timal measurement results with VIBSCANNER 2.
Familiarize yourself with the operation of the measuring device and the associated
sensor system.
Knowing the route
Make sure that the route to be measured is available on the measuring device.
Familiarize yourself with the route. In particular, consider the following aspects:
o
What machines must be measured?
o
What system areas must be accessed?
o
Is special protective equipment required?
Are measurements planned on a production line? Determine the line speed before
accessing the machine on site. This parameter is often known in the control room.
Ensuring operational capability
Before starting the measurement, ensure that
o
the device technology is operational and is not damaged,
o
the battery is charged ("Rechargeable battery" on page 23),
o
sufficient storage is available ("Storage space, free/total" on page 48),
o
the required sensor system and accessories are available,
o
the sensor cable and safety release cable are connected correctly ("Con-
nections" on page 20),
o
possible required adapters for coupling to the measurement location are
mounted correctly on the sensor.
Also ensure that all important device settings have been set ("Device settings" on page
40).
