Figure 7 IMx-1 Engineering unit selection
Engineering units for each of the four measurement types can be chosen and the
following alternatives are available:
• Acceleration: g or m/s^2
• Velocity: mm/s or ips
• Envelope: gE or m/s^2E
• Temperature: C or F
As shown, the scaling/detection method applicable to the vibration measurements, is
fixed. The temperature unit selection also governs the units used for the gateway,
internal temperature measurement.
2.2 Hierarchy view – adding sensors and measurements
IMx-1 sensors are added to sub-machines in the @ptitude Observer Hierarchy. Right
click on the appropriate asset node and select "Enlight Collect IMx-1 Sensor" from
the "Add" sub-menu:
Figure 8 Add – IMx-1 Sensor
When added to the hierarchy a node for the IMx-1 sensor is created along with a four
point ‘cluster’ of Temperature, Acceleration, Velocity and Envelope measurements,
refer the figure below.
