System Description
• two vibration transducer connections (eddy current probes,
accelerometers, velocity sensors, AC voltage output or DC voltage
output measurement devices)
• one tachometer input signal connection
• remote relay reset connection
• three relays available for module or transducer fault, warning and trip
• isolated 4-20mA per channel into a maximum load of 250 ohm
• three buffered output signals on the front panel BNC connectors
• two front panel digital meters
• four front panel LED indicators (module, transducer, warning, and trip
status)
The concept of machine monitoring is quite simple. During normal operation,
the machine’s "vital signs" remain within relatively narrow ranges. If a
mechanical problem develops, it will be reflected as a change in one or more of
these vital signs. This change will be detected by the XM-720 and cause an
alarm.
The monitoring system consists of a number of transducers connected to the
XM-720. The transducers installed on the machine convert the "vital signs" to
electrical signals that are transmitted to the XM-720 monitor.
Publication GMSI10-UM001C-EN-E - June 2011
The XM-720 accepts the signals from the transducers, processes and measures
the signals, and closes electrical relay contacts if one of the signals increases
too much. The relays can be connected to annunciators or to automatic
machine controls.

Installation Guidelines
Selecting a Location for the XM-720 Monitor
IMPORTANT
The XM-720 monitor is designed for panel mounting in a control room or
local mounting in an enclosure for ready access to the front panel by operating
personnel. When selecting a location for the monitor, keep in mind that it is a
complex electronic device. It is designed and manufactured to withstand quite
severe environmental conditions, but as with any electronic equipment, it will
give the longest, trouble-free service if treated with care.
The selected location should not subject the monitor to dripping water from
above, or to heat from equipment installed beneath it.
This product is an open type component and shall be
installed in a suitable grounded enclosure accepted by local
authority having jurisdiction.
Publication GMSI10-UM001C-EN-E - June 2011
Installing the XM-720 Machine Monitor 11
Hazardous Locations
Due to the proximity of some control rooms to process machinery, the control
room interior may be designated as a hazardous area within the definition of
Article 500 of the (U.S.) National Electrical Code, or similar codes in other
countries.
If the control room is classified as a Division 2 area (N.E.C.), present
interpretation of the code usually permits the operation of electrical equipment
if two conditions are met during normal operation:
1. Arcing or sparking contacts must not be exposed, and
2. No surface temperature may exceed 80% of the ignition temperature (in
°C) of the hazardous gas or vapor.
The XM-720 monitor meets the first requirement since all relay contacts are
hermetically sealed. The second requirement is met if ignition temperature of
the hazardous gas or vapor is above 200°C (392°F).
Mounting the XM-720
Monitor
ATTENTION
See the XM Documentation and Configuration Utility CD
for Hazardous Locations installation drawings. The XM
Documentation and Configuration Utility CD is packaged

Connecting the Remote Relay Reset Signal
In the provided configuration files, the XM-720 relays are configured to be
latching relays. This means the relays stay activated even when the condition
that caused the alarm has ended. The remote relay reset signal enables you to
reset the XM-720 relays remotely after you have corrected the alarm condition.
Wire the Remote Relay Reset Signal to the XM-720 back panel as shown in
Figure 2.8.
Figure 2.8 Remote Relay Reset Signal Connection
ATTENTION
The switch input power supply must be grounded at a
single point. Connect the Switch Return signal to chassis or
earth ground at either the XM-720 system, the switch, or
other equipment that is wired to this switch. If grounding
at the XM-720 system, connect a jumper between the
Switch RTN terminal and any available Chassis GND
terminal.
Connecting the Transducers
The XM-720 monitor can accept input from any Entek non-contact eddy
current probe, a standard IEPE acclerometer, velocity transducer, AC voltage
output or a DC voltage output measurement device.
Publication GMSI10-UM001C-EN-E - June 2011
20 Installing the XM-720 Machine Monitor
The sensitivity, operating range, and power requirements have been predefined
in the provided configuration files. The characteristics of the transducer and
the signal processing performed on the input signals can be changed using the
XM Serial Configuration Utility. Refer to Transducer Parameters on page 44.
IMPORTANT
The 1440-PK02-05M2 (gSE) monitor can measure both
"standard" vibration, similarly to the 1440-PK02-05M0,
and g’s Spike Energy™ (gSE). It can produce the gSE
measurement only with an IEPE accelerometer or
externally powered sensor.
Setting the Buffer Range for the Transducer
The XM-720 provides buffered outputs of all transducer input signals through
the BNC connectors on the front panel.
The voltage operating range of the buffered outputs must be configured to
coincide with the corresponding transducer bias range. This operating range is
configured by placing a jumper from terminal 5 (channel 1) and terminal 22
(channel 2) to terminal 6 (Positive Buffer Bias) or terminal 21 (Buffer -) on the
XM-120/121/122 module, depending on the transducer. The buffered output
operating range is configured independently per channel.

Bargraph Meters
The XM-720 front panel has two vertical-scale meters, one for each input
channel. Each meter consists of 31 solid-state lamps (light emitting diodes)
arranged one above the other. Scale markings on the window appear at 3%
increments, thus there is one scale mark for each of the thirty lamps.
In the provided configuration files, each meter is configured to continuously
display the overall vibration level. The amplitude of the signal appears as a
continuous bright light next to the one of the thirty scale marks. This
simplified display makes it easy for you to recognize potential problems as the
measured signal amplitude approaches one of the setpoints.
The measurement displayed in the meter, the full scale, and the alarm and trip
(danger) thresholds are configurable using the XM Serial Configuration Utility.
Refer to Chapter 3 for more information about the XM Serial Configuration
Utility.
The XM-720 is shipped with clear self-adhesive caption sheet for customizing
the meter scale. The caption stickers contain the most popular measured units
and ranges. The caption sheet also contains orange and red arrows for labeling
the alert and danger (trip) threshold levels.
Follow these instructions to customize the scaled face plate.
1. Remove the front bezel. To do this, insert a blade-type screwdriver
between the plastic bezel frame and front panel and lift the bezel off.
2. Remove the scaled faceplate. Be careful not to scratch the clear lens.
3. Peel the desired measured units and the orange and red arrows from the
caption sheet and place on the scaled faceplate. Refer to To determine
placement for Alert and Danger Threshold Arrows on page 33 for an
example.
4. Replace the faceplate, lens and bezel.

Glossary
alarm
An alarm alerts you to a change in a measurement. For example, an alarm can
notify you when the measured vibration level for a machine exceeds a
pre-defined value.
band
A frequency range, such as the frequency range between 1,800 and 3,200Hz.
bus off
A bus off condition occurs when an abnormal rate of errors is detected on the
Control Area Network (CAN) bus in a device. The bus-off device cannot
receive or transmit messages on the network. This condition is often caused by
corruption of the network data signals due to noise or baud rate mismatch.
current configuration
The current configuration is the most recently loaded set of configuration
parameters in the XM module’s memory. When power is cycled, the current
configuration is loaded with either the saved configuration (in EEPROM) or
the factory defaults (if there is no saved configuration). In addition, the current
configuration contains any configuration changes that have been downloaded
to the module since power was applied.
disarm state
See Program mode.
EEPROM
See NVS (Non-Volatile Storage).
Electronic Data Sheet (EDS) Files
EDS files are simple text files that are used by network configuration tools
such as RSNetWorx for DeviceNet to describe products so that you can easily
commission them on a network. EDS files describe a product device type,
revision, and configurable parameters.
failsafe
Failsafe means that when in alarm, the relay contacts are in their "normal,"
de-energized, or "shelf-state" positions. In other words, normally closed relays
are closed in alarm, and normally open relays are open in alarm. With failsafe
operation, a power failure equals an alarm.
59Publication GMSI10-UM001C-EN-E - June 2011
Glossary 60
For failsafe operation, the following are true:
• Under nonalarm (with power applied to the unit) conditions, the relay
closes the circuit between the common and the N.O. terminals
• Under alarm or loss-of-power conditions, the relay changes state to
close the circuit between the common and the N.C. terminals.
gSE measurement
A special type of signal processing. gSE, or Spike Energy, is useful for
detecting low amplitude, high frequency signals characteristic of bearing and
gearbox defects.
gSE spectrum
A special type of spectrum measurement using gSE signal processing. gSE, or
Spike Energy, is useful for detecting low amplitude, high frequency signals
characteristic of bearing and gearbox defects.
Help window
A window that contains help topics that describe the operation of a program.
These topics may include:
• An explanation of a command.
• A description of the controls in a dialog box or property page.
• Instructions for a task.
• Definition of a term.
high pass filter
A filter that excludes all frequencies below a defined frequency. It allows, or
passes, frequencies above the defined frequency. It is useful for removing low
frequency signal components that would dominate the signal.
low pass filter
A low pass filter excludes frequencies above a defined frequency. It allows, or
passes, frequencies below the defined frequency. It is useful as an anti-aliasing
filter.
Publication GMSI10-UM001C-EN-E - June 2011
non-failsafe
Non-failsafe means that when in non-alarm, the relay contacts are in their
"normal," de-energized, or "shelf-state" positions. In other words, the relay is
normally not energized and energizes (pulls in) upon alarm condition.
Glossary 61
For non-failsafe operation, the following are true:
• Under nonalarm conditions, the relay closes the circuit between the
common and the N.C. (normally closed) terminals.
• Under alarm conditions, the relay changes state to close the circuit
between the common and the N.O. (normally open) terminals.
NVS (Non-Volatile Storage)
NVS is the permanent memory of an XM module. Modules store parameters
and other information in NVS so that they are not lost when the module loses
power (unless Auto Save is disabled). NVS is sometimes called “EEPROM.”
online help
Online help allows you to get help for your program on the computer screen
by pressing F1. The help that appears in the Help window is context sensitive,
which means that the help is related to what you are currently doing in the
program.
orders
Multiples of the operating speed of a piece of equipment. The first order is the
operating speed. The second order is two times the operating speed, and so
on.
Program mode
The XM module is idle. Typically this occurs when the module configuration
settings are being updated with the XM Configuration program. In Program
mode, the signal processing/measurement process is stopped. The status of
the alarms is set to the disarm state to prevent a false alert or danger status.
Run mode
In Run mode, the module collects measurement data and monitors each
measurement device.
settling time
The amount of time it takes a measurement to reach 90% of the final value
given a step change in the input signal.
signal detection
Defines the method of conditioning or measuring a dynamic input signal. Peak
(0 to the peak voltage), Peak-Peak (minimum peak to maximum peak), and
RMS (square root of the mean of the square of the values) are the most
common methods of signal detection.
Publication GMSI10-UM001C-EN-E - June 2011
Glossary 62
startup/coast-down trend
A speed-base trend that is collected in an XM module during the startup or
coast-down of a machine when the measured machine speed crosses into a
defined speed range.
transducer
A transducer is a device for making measurements. These include
accelerometers, velocity pickups, displacement probes, and temperature
sensors.
virtual relay
A virtual relay is a non-physical relay. It has the same capabilities (monitor
alarms, activation delay, change status) as a physical relay only without any
physical or electrical output. The virtual relay provides additional relay status
inputs to a controller or PLC.
XM configuration
XM configuration is a collection of user-defined parameters for XM modules.
XM Serial Configuration Utility software
XM Serial Configuration Utility software is a tool for monitoring and configuring XM modules. It can be run on computers running Windows 2000 service
pack 2, Windows NT 4.0 service pack 6, or Windows XP operating systems.
