1. Introduction
The Aion measures the vibrations, magnetic fields, and heat created by your
machines. These sensor nodes collect machine information and transmit data to our
machine learning algorithm for processing. As a result, we can detect anomalies and
faults in your machine and prevent bigger failures. Once a fault is detected you will
receive a notification providing the information you need to plan maintenance in
advance, avoiding the need for unplanned production stops.
In order for us to give you the best and most accurate results, it is important that
you carefully read and understand this instruction manual.
2. Definitions and glossary
Package: the package received by the client is a recycled paper box that includes the
sensor node, power supply, and mounting interfaces.
Sensor node: the AiSight sensor node (Aion).
Power supply: the 90~240 V ac to 24 V power supply to power the sensor node with
24 V dc.
Power cable: the cable with M8 4-pin connector powers the sensor with 24 V from
machine panels, other local dc power sources, or the battery pack. In the last case,
the power cable is also used as a signal line since it allows communication between
the sensor node and the battery pack.
Battery pack: the AiSight Aion battery pack.
MAC address: a unique identifier number for each sensor node, also known as a serial
number.
Mounting interface: any mechanical or chemical combination used to attach the
sensor node to the machine.
Provisioning application (app): a smartphone application that connects with the
sensor node via BLE to input the Wi-Fi credentials.
Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE): a low power consumption wireless technology
standard used for exchanging data between fixed and mobile devices over short
distances using short-wavelength UHF radio waves.
Wi-Fi network: a wireless technology standard used for exchanging data between
fixed and mobile devices over medium-range distances with higher data rates, also
providing access to the internet.
