8. POWER SUPPLY from DC ADAPTER

The meter also can supply the power supply from the DC 9V Power Adapter ( optional ). I nsert the plug of Power Adapter into " DC 9V Power Adapter I nput Socket " ( 3-11, Fig. 1 ). The meter will permanent power ON when use the DC ADAPTER power supply ( The power Button function is disable ).
9. BATTERY REPLACEMENT

1) When the left corner of LCD display show "

", it

is necessary to replace the battery. However, in-spec.

measurement may still be made for several hours after

low battery indicator appears before the instrument

become inaccurate.

2) Loose the screws of the " Battery Cover Screws " ( 3-13,

Fig. 1 ) and take away the " Battery Cover " ( 3-12, Fig. 1 )

from the instrument and remove the battery.

3) Replace with DC 1.5 V battery ( UM3, AA,

Alkaline/ heavy duty ) x 6 PCs, and reinstate the cover.

4) Make sure the battery cover is secured after changing

the battery.

10. SYSTEM RESET
I f the meter happen the troubles such as : CPU system is hold ( for example, the key button can not be operated... ).
Then make the system RESET will fix the problem. The system RESET procedures will be either following method :
During the power on, use a pin to press the " Reset Button " ( 3-10, Fig. 1 ) once a while will reset the circuit system.
11. RS232 PC SERI AL I NTERFACE
The instrument has RS232 PC serial interface via a 3.5 mm terminal ( 3-9, Fig. 1 ). The data output is a 16 digit stream which can be utilized for user's specific application. A RS232 lead with the following connection will be required to link the instrument with the PC serial port.

12. CLASSI FI CATI ON RANGES

For the valuation of machines and equipment in the I SO 2372 and VDI 2056, four different kinds of machine groups with four classification ranges and their limits for vibration severity ( mm/ s ) are determined.

The classifications for each machine group are specified as follows :
Small machines, especially production electrical motors of up to 15 KW ( Group K )

Good Accept able Still permissible Dangerous

0 to 0.71 mm/ s 0.72 to 1.80 mm/ s 1.81 to 4.5 mm/ s > 4.5 mm/ s

Medium sized machines, especially electrical motors w ith 15 up to 75 KW output, w ithout special foundations ( Group M )

Good Accept able Still permissible Dangerous

0 to 1.12 mm/ s 1.13 to 2.80 mm/ s 2.81 to 7.1 mm/ s > 7.1 mm/ s

27

Large machines on heavy foundations ( Group G )

Good Accept able Still permissible Dangerous

0 to 1.80 mm/ s 1.81 to 4.50 mm/ s 4.51 to 11.2 mm/ s > 11.2 mm/ s

Largest machines and turbo machines w ith a special foundations ( Group T ) .

Good Accept able Still permissible Dangerous

0 to 2.80 mm/ s 2.81 to 7.10 mm/ s 7.11 to 18.0 mm/ s > 18 mm/ s
