3.2.4 Performing test series

Overview
Test series are used to automate measurements for condition monitoring to a great
extent. A test series can contain any number of measurement series. These
measurement series are performed one after the other in the defined order when a
test series is run. An machine operator is only required at the machine for the
purpose of starting the test series.
The measurements are made and measurement results stored without any further
operator actions.
