Triaxial sensor
Requirements
For measurements with a triaxial sensor to run without problems, the
following requirements must be met:
- Intheroutedevicesetupforthemeasurement(seep.2-17),the
'Use triax sensor' option is enabled (see below).
- In the route runtime setup, a standard sensor should not be set up
andthemeasurementchannelmustbesetto'Auto'(p.3-18).
- The‘2channels’rmwaremodule(VIB5.381)mustberegistered.
Starting a measurement with a triaxial sensor
• Mountthetriaxialsensoronthemachine.
For evaluation later on, note down the relationship of the sensor
axes to the measurement direction on the machine (e.g. X = radial
horizontal, Y = radial vertical, Z = axial).
• Connectthetriaxialsensortothemeasurementdevcieaccording
to the following diagram (see also previous page).
• Opentherouteandselectthetriaxialmeasurementlocation.
In the tree/list view, triax locations are identified by an icon that
indicates the sensor axes. The other two associated measurement
locations are automatically highlighted (s. below).
• Clickonthemeasurementlocationtodisplaythetasks.
The measurement tasks for the X and Y directions are, where pos-
sible*, grouped to a 1+1 measurement and are measured simul-
taneously on channels A and B. The measurement task for the Z
direction is measured separately on channel B.
• ClickonthemeasurementtasktostartthemeasurementintheX
and Y directions. After the measurement in X and Y directions, the
measurement location for the Z-direction is shown.
• ClickagaintostartthemeasurementintheZdirection.
