Supported Sensor Types - Commtest Instruments vb Series Instrument Reference Manual

Supported Sensor Types

The instrument can take measurements using a wide range of
sensors. The sensitivities and types of measurement that can be
taken by each sensor are summarized in the following table.
Note: Velocity, displacement and current sensor types are only
applicable to the vb3000 instrument.
Sensor Type
Accelerometer
Velocity Sensor
Displacement
Sensor
(or prox probe)
Current Sensor
You can define your sensors either in the Ascent software or the
instrument. For information on how to set up a sensor using the
instrument see Specifying Sensor Settings (page 76).
