  • Page 5: Chapter 1 - Quick Start

    Chapter 1 – Quick Start Overview The Reveal™ high-bandwidth vibration sensor measures vibration speed at low frequency ranges (10Hz – 1kHz), and peak g-force at high frequency ranges (1.5kHz – 10kHz). The sensor can support between one and four independent vibration inputs referred to as “channels” in this document. The vibration sensor can be used for simple motor on/off functionality, or vibration analysis utilizing ISO standards such as ISO 10816.

    The desired high frequency g-force threshold values must be multiplied by 4 for the configuration value. For example, if the desired high-frequency threshold is 2.5g, then the threshold value would be 10 or 0x0A. Thus, the resolution of the g-force values is 0.25g with a max value of 63.75g.
