That is, in the given example, it is not apparent to the user whether the 10 kHz energy is real or an alias. Aliasing Protection The 640 and 650 series analyzers have 24 bit sigma/delta analog to digital converters (ADCs). These ADCs actually sample at rates of between 13.5 million samples per second (Msps) to 27 Msps depending on the analysis frequency chosen in the eZ software.
IOtech 640 and 650 signal analyzers can be triggered per software configuration. The 650 models can be triggered in regard to their 5 analog input channels. The 640 models can be triggered in regard to their 4 analog input channels. In addition, the 640 models can be triggered for analog waveform output.
MOSFET and a proportional change in bias voltage. This voltage change will be coupled to the 640 [or 650] input amplifier through the capacitor. The value of R and the internal capacitance of the piezoelectric crystal control the low frequency corner.

Case-grounded accelerometers are connected electrically to any conductive surface on which they are mounted. When these units are used, take care to avoid errors due to ground noise. The pseudo-differential input of the 640 [or 650] will help ignore many of these sources of noise.
Low-impedance piezoelectric transducers also measure pressure or force. The accelerometer circuit requires only two wires to handle both power and signals. Piezoelectric sensors have resonant frequencies as high as 120 kHz giving them a usable frequency range of <1 Hz to >40 kHz. 640 & 650 Series Analog Signals 878893...

• Make a solid earth ground connection. Ensure that the chassis of the primary data acquisition device, e.g., 640/650 Series device is connected to earth ground. This practice: (a) keeps radiated emissions low by keeping the chassis electrically quiet, (b) keeps potential common-mode voltages low, (c) improves user safety, and (d) provides a safe path for Electrostatic Discharge energy back to earth ground.
ESD bags and cartons, and related procedures. Product Care IOtech 640 and 650 Series devices are essentially maintenance free and require a minimal amount of care. They should be treated much like other high-tech equipment. In general: • The units should be operated in ventilated and relatively dust-free environments.
For 640e and 650e units, upon installation, the user needs to run the Daq Configuration Control Panel applet. The applet is used to configure IOtech 640e and 650e devices for Ethernet connection. This must be performed in order for the application to access the unit through the Windows 2000/XP driver.

Non-Destructive Test Software …… 10-5 This chapter offers a glimpse of the eZ software packages that can be used with an IOtech 600 series device, with exceptions as noted. The software is usually purchased when the hardware is ordered; but should your acquisition needs change, additional software packages can be ordered at a later time.
This software adds real-time continuous and transient data acquisition to an IOtech 600 series system. Analysis can be in the time, frequency, or order domain.
An IOtech 600 series system running with eZ-TOMAS can be easily moved from machine to machine with very short setup times. You can use the system to reduce downtime, improve data collection, troubleshoot, and recondition the machine.
Rotating Machine Balancing An IOtech 600 series system using eZ-Balance provides a solution for multi-plane field balance applications of rotating machinery. eZ-Balance computes the optimal balance weights and their locations, based on vibration data collected from the analyzer. The data is displayed in a convenient Polar plot that indicates the magnitude and phase of the unbalance as well as time and spectrum data.
(non-destructive test) uses resonance to identify part variations caused by process inconsistencies and defects. Using eZ-NDT with an IOtech 600 series device is a fast and inexpensive method for performing 100% inspection of production parts. Inspection parts include, but are not limited to: powder metal, ceramics, and composites.

Appendix C – Transducer Electronic Data Sheets (TEDS) Smart Sensors Certain types of transducers are classified as smart sensors. They contain a Smart Transducer Interface Module (STIM), which in turn, contains an onboard EEPROM memory IC, called TEDS, Transducer Electronic Data Sheet. (See Figure C.01.) The TEDS electronically stores information regarding the transducer’s characteristics and parameters such as type of device, manufacturer, model number, serial number, calibration date, sensitivity, reference frequency, and other data.

System Architecture The IEEE has partitioned the P1451 standard into five major parts. Each part addresses a different facet or interface of the project that enables sensor manufacturers to design and build new sensors compatible with all networks. Each part is defined as follows: Part 1.
Page 96
The Basic TEDS contains the manufacturer’s identification, model identification, version letter, and the serial number, which are common to all types of sensors. The Standard TEDS, however, contains data unique to the sensor’s principle of operation. For instance, a piezoelectric accelerometer differs from a strain gage load cell, so the Standard TEDS EEPROM contains some common and some unique information.
