6.4 Multi-input measurements
The analyzer lets you simultaneously collect data using one, two, three, and four inputs to
make data collection more efficient. Set the number of inputs from the Input Setup menu,
and set up the type of sensor for each input in the Sensor Setup menu. Some
measurements, such as Orbit Plot, let you select any combination of inputs for two input
measurements. For four inputs, the analyzer uses inputs AB and CD.
You can use a triaxial accelerometer, splitter cables, the CSI 2140 Four-Channel Input
Adapter, or a combination of them to collect multi-input data.
