Sensor Setup; 3D Sensor - Gecko Compact Product User Manual

Sensor Setup

This section of the user manual applies to Gecko Compact, Rugged, Blast and SMA models only. For all
other models, skip ahead to the Input Amplifier section.

3D Sensor

This menu has items that deal with 3D sensor information and control. This will not be
visible in the Blast or SMA, but the same method applies for setting up the 1D sensor, so
Blast & SMA users should read this section.
Select a Sensor
The Gecko has a range of popular sensors settings preloaded into the menu to save users
the trouble of entering all of the parameters that allow the data to be displayed in
engineering units (e.g. mm/s, g, mm, dB, rad/s, etc.) rather than recorder counts.
Scroll down to the sensor you have connected and press the Menu/Left button to exit and
save. This will fill the standard sensor information to the 3D sensor, and you can then
modify the settings for your particular sensor. To do this, re-enter the "Select a Sensor"
menu and press the Right button on Customise Sensor to edit the parameters.
