Option Description
F9 Triax Collect data from inputs A, B, and C. If you select this option, the
inputs on the left side of the screen automatically update. For the CSI
A0643TX triaxial accelerometer, the directions are relative to the
sensor:
Input A = Z direction
Input B = X direction
Input C = Y direction
F11 Tach Enable and view the tachometer signals.
3. Press Enter.
The active inputs and units display at the bottom of the screen. Disabled inputs are
grayed out.
6.5.2 Set up a sensor
You can set sensor parameters for inputs A, B, C, and D. When you use the CSI A0643TX
triaxial accelerometer, input A receives measurements from the z-axis, input B receives
measurements from the x-axis, and input C receives measurements from the y-axis.
Note
Temperature is only available for input A.
Procedure
1.
From the Analyze main menu, press F1 Manual Analyze > F12 Input Setup > F7 Sensor
Setup.
2. Set the following options as necessary for each input.
Option Description
Change Sensor Type Select the type of sensor to use for the input.
Change Sensitivity Enter the sensitivity in volts per engineering unit, such as g's for an
accelerometer.
Change Sensor
Power
Select ON to use the accelerometer input where the analyzer powers
the sensor. Select OFF to use the volts input. No power is provided to
the sensor.
Change Signal
Coupling
The coupling mode for sensor power ON is always AC coupled. When
sensor power is OFF, the mode can be changed to AC or DC.
Change Accel Config Set the accelerometer sensors as single axis (one signal), biaxial (two
signals), or triaxial (three signals).
3. Press ALT to set the parameters for input C and input D.
4.
Press Enter.
