The Dynamix 2500 Data Collector
20
POWER /USB/TRIGGER
This socket connects the Dynamix 2500 data collector to either an external
trigger, power adapter, or a USB interface. The external trigger enables the
synchronization of the data acquisition process to external events, such as
tachometer inputs for rotational synchronization for balancing applications, or
for order normalization of frequency spectrum. You can use the trigger pulse also
to collect running speeds of machinery. The pin assignment for the trigger is
shown in

Using the Headphones
The Dynamix 2500 data collector lets you listen to the vibration signal as
measurements are being recorded. You need to have the optional part, the headset
adapter cable.
You can use either Connector A, or Connector B to listen to any data being
collected. The accelerometer would be connected to the opposite connector.
When collecting data, the headphone output is switched to listen to another
input channel (X, Y, Z, and R) by using the shift + left and right arrows.
The headphone output always cycles through X, Y, Z, and R, but only outputs
sound when set to a channel that is currently measuring data. The channels that
are collecting data are controlled by which connector (A, or B) that the
accelerometer is connected to.
See
Dynamix 2500 Data Collector Optional Parts List on page
You can control the volume using the keypad on the data collector. You can listen
to any channel.
The status bar on the top of the screen indicates the monitored channel and the
headphone volume. You can listen to the following:
• Connector A: Channels X, Y, Z, and R
• Connector B: Channels Y and Z
