2 About Condition Monitor
The Condition Monitor (CM) is a compact, easy to use, vibration monitoring system which allows the
user to monitor the condition of rotating equipment. The CM is battery powered, and communication is
performed wirelessly by means of Bluetooth, thus no need for cabling.
During operation, the CM measures equipment vibration. The measurements are compared against a
baseline set during an initial “Teach” calibration period, which reflects a normal condition. The user is
notified in case of vibration deviations that exceeds user configurable thresholds.
Advanced frequency analysis functions assist the user in detecting maintenance demanding
equipment components in due time, so that maintenance can be carried out as a planned operation.
A minimum of 1 year of measurements can be stored directly on the CM.
NOTE
The CM shall be used in conjunction with a handheld device (not included) running Android or iOS
with the Alfa Laval Condition Monitor application installed.
The battery life of the CM is expected to be at least 2-3 years under normal operating conditions.
Since this depends on user behavior, battery life time is excluded from warranty.
NOTE
The CM is approved for use in the following contries:
United States, Canada, China and The United Kingdom, Europe; Austria, Belgium, Cyprus, Czech
Republic, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Ireland, Italy, Latvia,
Lithuania, Luxembourg, Malta, Poland, Portugal, Slovakia, Slovenia, Spain, Sweden and The
Netherlands, EFTA; Switzerland, Iceland, Liechtenstein and Norway.

5 Troubleshooting
Issue Cause Connection
The CM does not appear in the “My
Devices” list.
The CM is in sleep mode. Shake the CM and wait for the blue
LED to blink or wake the CM by
use of a magnet, see “Section 5.1
Magnet functionality”
The CM does not wake up when
performing the wake instructions.
The CM software may be suspen-
ded.
Perform a software reboot by use
of the magnet, if the reboot does
not correct the issue, perform a fac-
tory reset by use of a magnet, see
“Section 5.1 Magnet functionality”
The CM does not respond to a
magnet, but is connectable via the
application.
Make sure the magnet is placed
correctly, at the QR code on the
CM.
If the problem persists, try a differ-
ent type of magnet.
During Setup, I successfully woke
up the CM, but now it does not ap-
pear in the “My devices” list.
The CM returns to sleep mode after
15 minutes, if no application con-
nection has been made.
Perform a wake instruction again.
5.1 Magnet functionality
2067-0008
Connection
Reboot
Factory reset
In case the CM becomes unconnectable via the Alfa Laval Condition Monitor application the CM
firmware can be restarted by holding a magnet to the QR code located on the CM.
The magnet HMI describes how to operate the magnet, the magnet menu is divided into colors. Blue
for connection, yellow for reboot and red for factory reset.
If a reboot is wanted, hold the magnet to the QR code on the CM. The CM will indicate the presence
of the magnet by flashing the green LED and then proceed through the magnet menu. When the CM
starts to flash yellow remove the magnet, if the reboot command has been confirmed the CM will
respond with three yellow LED flashes.
In the event a firmware reboot does not alleviate the problem, the magnet can also be used to
perform a factory reset of the CM, this will delete all stored data and completely reset the CM.

5 TroubleshootingEN

5.2 Tips and tricks
Wink function: Locating a CM among other CM´s
To easily identify a CM from others, use the Wink functionality. In the My Devices list tap and hold a
CM card, until the Wink dialog pops up. Selecting Wink, will instruct the CM to flash purple with 1
second between flashes for a total of 1 minutes, giving the user time to visually locate the CM.
Sleep mode for storage
When storing a CM, remember to put it in sleep mode, in sleep mode all data will be preserved, while
all sub routines such as measuring, logging and comparison with baseline levels, are suspended.
While in sleep mode, the CM life expectancy is greatly increased. To exit sleep mode, simply perform
one of the two wake instructions. See Section 3.3 Setup
Name your CM
For a quick and easy overview of your equipment, use the custom name function and name your CM
with either type/name/P&ID or something unique to you.
For example, “SRU3 Intake ID 5.02”.
Event log
If the CM has observed vibrations that triggered a notification, use the Event log to see details of
exactly when the notification occurred.
