Digital
: sets the input to read digital voltage signals. These inputs return a value
of 1 when the signal goes above the trigger value, returning a 0 otherwise. A
hysteresis band is created around this trigger value. The user can set both values.
DC Coupling
By marking this checkbox, the DC component of the signal will not be filtered out. It only
applies to
Dynamic analog
input types.
Channel gain Defines the gain or amplification ratio that will be applied to the signal connected to the
input channel. This option modifies the input range, or maximum amplitude the input will
be able to measure. For a gain of 1 maximum voltage for the channels is ±24 V. Applies
to
Dynamic
and
Static
type inputs.
Sensor
Selects the sensor assigned to the input channel. Only shown for
Dynamic
and
Static
Analog
type inputs.
IEPE
Activate IEPE current source to power the sensor.
Threshold
Selects the voltage value that will be used to trigger a
Pulse train
input mode.
Hysteresis
Sets a hysteresis around the threshold voltage that triggers the pulse detection. For
example, a hysteresis value set at 0.1 V and threshold set at 1V will make the system
detect the pulse when the signal goes above 1.1V, and will stop detecting it when the
signal goes below 0.9V. Static inputs do not allow configuring this value.
Edge
Selects if the pulses of the signal will be detected during their raising or falling side.
Simulation
Selects a file containing a simulation signal that will replace the input signal for that
channel. The simulation signal contained in the file will be replayed continuously.
Path
Indicates the actual
Machines
and measurement points that are using this analog input
to acquire monitoring data. Clicking on the link will lead to their configuration.
Clicking on one of the items it will lead to the configuration menu the corresponding input, where
some additional parameters are available:
12.5.
Bearings
This section configures the list of bearings that will be able to be assigned to the dynamic
Points
. By
selecting this menu option, the interface displays the list of rolling bearings currently defined on the
system.
