The 16 digits data stream will be displayed in the
following format :
D15 D14 D13 D12 D11 D10 D9 D8 D7 D6 D5 D4 D3 D2 D1 D0
Each digit indicates the following status :
D15 Start Word = 02
D14 4
D13 1
D12, D11 Annunciator for Display
mm/s = 93 ft/s^2 = 97 ft/min. = 11
For example
mm/s=93
D12=9, D11=3
cm/s = 95 mm = 94 = 01℃
in/s = 98 inch = 96 = 02℉
m/s^2 = 92 RPM = 27
g = 57 m/min. = 60
D10 Polarity
0 = Positive 1 = Negative
D9 Decimal Point(DP), position from right to the
left
0 = No DP, 1= 1 DP, 2 = 2 DP, 3 = 3 DP
D8 to D1 Display reading, D8 = MSD, D1 = LSD
For example :
If the display reading is 1234, then D8 to
D1 is : 00001234
D0 End Word = 0D
RS232 setting
Baud rate 9600
Parity No parity
Data bit no. 8 Data bits
Stop bit 1 Stop bit

8. BATTERY REPLACEMENT
1)When the left corner of LCD display show " ",
26
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)Open the " Battery Cover " ( 3-20, Fig. 1 ) away from
the instrument and remove the battery.
3)Install 1.5 V battery x 4 PCs ( UN-3, AA, Alkaline or
heavy duty ) and replace the cover.

10. CLASSIFICATION RANGES
For the valuation of machines and equipment in the ISO
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 0 to 0.71 mm/s
Acceptable 0.72 to 1.80 mm/s
Still permissible 1.81 to 4.5 mm/s
Dangerous > 4.5 mm/s
Medium sized machines, especially electrical
motors with 15 up to 75 KW output, without special
foundations ( Group M )
Good 0 to 1.12 mm/s
Acceptable 1.13 to 2.80 mm/s
Still permissible 2.81 to 7.1 mm/s
Dangerous > 7.1 mm/s

Large machines on heavy foundations ( Group G )
Good 0 to 1.80 mm/s
Acceptable 1.81 to 4.50 mm/s
Still permissible 4.51 to 11.2 mm/s
Dangerous > 11.2 mm/s
Largest machines and turbo machines with a
special foundations ( Group T ).
Good 0 to 2.80 mm/s
Acceptable 2.81 to 7.10 mm/s
Still permissible 7.11 to 18.0 mm/s
Dangerous > 18 mm/s
