Procedure
1.
Create a job or open Analyze from a route measurement point.
2. From the Analyze main menu, press F1 Manual Analyze > F1 Set Analyze Mode.
3. Use the up and down arrow keys to select Peak and Phase.
4. Press Enter.
The Analyze Setup screen appears.
5. Set the following options as necessary.
Option Description
F2 Set Order Enter a multiple of the machine’s RPM between 1 and 128 as the frequency
component to track. Typically, set this to one to measure the peak and
phase of the 1xRPM (shaft turning speed) frequency component. The
default is 1xRPM.
F3 Set
Bandwidth
Enter a value between 0.02 and 1.0 as the bandwidth of the tracking filter
to attenuate all frequency components, except the desired peak. The
bandwidth of the filter is the frequency of the peak multiplied by the
bandwidth parameter. A lower (more narrow) bandwidth attenuates
frequency components that are close to the desired peak. This parameter
accepts values from 0.02 to 1.0, but 0.10 is recommended for most
applications. The default is 0.1xRPM.
F4 Set Average
Enable
Select this function to vector average each new measurement with the
previous measurement. This is useful when monitoring a running machine
if the peak or phase readings fluctuate from measurement to
measurement, or if the frequency of interest is modulated by nearby
frequency components. The default is disabled.
Note
Do not enable this option for startup or coastdown data collection.
F7 Tach Setup Set up the tachometer parameters. See Section 6.6.
F8 Set Delta
Time
Enter a value between 0 and 999 to set the seconds that elapse between
storing points. Enter 0 to disable Delta Time and start storing data on Delta
RPM. The default is 0.0 seconds.
F9 Set Delta
RPM
Enter a value between 0 and 90,000 to set the change in RPM that must
occur before the analyzer stores a data point. Enter 0 to store a data point
whenever the RPM changes by one percent. The default is 0 RPM.
F10 RPM Range Enter values between 0 and 90,000 to set the minimum and maximum
RPM values. If the RPM is outside these values, the analyzer does not
collect data. The message “RPM out of Range” displays. Enter 0 to disable
this feature. The default is 0.
F12 Input Setup Set up the input channels, the sensor type, and the units for the acquisition
type. See Section 6.5.
