There are several options for performing a measurement. Last measurement Last measurement saves the setup last used for a measure- ment.
  • Page 95 Translation of the Original Operating Instructions VP-80/VP-80 E Predefined measurements Here you can start the measurements (measuring tasks) pre- defined by Brüel & Kjær Vibro GmbH. The predefined measu- rements reflect frequently occurring, typical and important measuring tasks in condition monitoring. The settings for the respective measurement are already predefined and cannot be deleted by the user.

    The procedures and settings described below can therefore be transferred to the other modules. Proceed as follows: Start the VIBROPORT 80 with the On/Off key.   The device starts.  The main mask appears.

  • Page 97: Perform Predefined Measurement

    Translation of the Original Operating Instructions VP-80/VP-80 E Perform predefined measurement Predefined measurements are specifically designed for fre- quently occurring measuring tasks. Therefore these measu- ring tasks do not have to be specially created and saved. Predefined measuring tasks can be started directly (START softkey) or configured (fire key) or SETUP softkey before star- ting the measurement.

  • Page 100: Change Display / Representation During Measurement

    Translation of the Original Operating Instructions VP-80/VP-80 E During execution of the measurement you can: • Call up an average determination to stabilize the measu- ring values (AVERAGE). • Change the representation (VIEW). • Record the data over speed f(n) or time f(t) (RECORD), if you have previously defined this in the setup.
