4 Visual inspection
EveryStartupbegins with a visual inspection of the sensors that are installed. In this regard, it is necessary to check
that the accelerometers are firmly screwed in, the cables are undamaged, and the RPM sensor is correctly aligned
with the trigger mark.
Damaged parts are to be replaced with original spare parts immediately.
4.1 RPM sensor function test
lSlowly turn the trigger mark past the RPM sensor.
Whenever the trigger mark is detected by the sensor, the LED on the sensor lights up. Plugs which also contain an
operating display can be supplied. In this regard, the additional LED lights up continuously if the power supply is cor-
rect.
CAUTION! Danger of property damage!
Check the distance between the installed sensor and the trigger mark. The permissible range is 2.3 to 8
mm.
If the distance is too small, the sensor and trigger mark may come in contact with each other and be dama-
ged during operation. If the distance is too great, the sensor is not able to detect a trigger signal.
4.2 Cable routes and wiring
lBy means of a visual inspection, check that the cables from the sensors to the system module are properly
laid and undamaged.
lCheck the terminal wiring in the system module. To this end, carefully pull on each individual cable and also
check whether individual terminals have loosened.
lCheck that the cable loops are properly laid.
lCheck that the cables in the protective housing have not got caught or been damaged when closing.

5.1 Switching on VIBGUARD IIoT
lSwitch on the power supply for the CMS.
lThe system module starts up and launches the measuring configuration that is currently loaded on the sys-
tem.
lCheck the LED status on the system module.
The system is operational if the system LED lights up green. Observe the LEDs on the analog channels for fault mes-
sages ("LED displays on the system module" on page 1).
5.2 Establishing a connection
The connection between VIBGUARD IIoT and the notebook is established via the network connection.
The network cable on the VIBGUARD IIoT is not suitable for a direct connection between the notebook and
VIBGUARD IIoT as it is wired one to one. A direct connection is only possible with a crossed patch cable (Cross
cable).
We recommend using a hub that may be available in the system or using a hub that you have with you. In such
cases, the standard cabling of the CMS can be retained and the notebook can be connected to the hub using a stan-
dard network cable.
If the network is set up on the system module with single wires (terminals 8-12), the LAN socket must not be used.
If necessary, disconnect the single-wire connection before connecting the notebook to the LAN socket using a cros-
sed network cable.
5.3 Testing the connection
The initial connection to the VIBGUARD IIoT is established via the IP address assigned at the factory.
This information and other parameters for startup are included in the scope of delivery as a paper prin-
tout.
During startup, the standard IP address is to be changed and adapted to the network on-site ("Network con-
figuration" on page 16).

The left column states the number of the input memory in which the respective readings are stored. The first 22
memories contain the values for the supply voltage of the respective channels. The assignment is derived from the
following schema:
CH_101 = AI1 (-> It is preferable to connect sensor A1 here)
CH_102 = AI2 (-> It is preferable to connect sensor A2 here)
…
CH_116 = AI16 (Analog input: CLD, IEPE or U)

…
CH_120 = AI20 (-> A process signal)
KP_101 = TP1 (-> It is preferable to connect the RPM sensor here)
KP_102 = TP2
The other lines indicate the values for the measured variable. The channel is always at the start of the second
column. The status of a measurement or an error in the measurement chain is displayed in color:
OK Alarm Warning Prewarning Sensor error
8.1 Sensor position
For reliable machine diagnostics, the sensors must be wired to the input channels provided for this purpose. Use
the cable break detection in the CMS to check that the sensor position is correct. In the event of a cable break, the
relevant status LED flashes orange on the system module.
Status LED on the terminal block
To simulate a cable break in the measuring section, proceed as follows:
lDisconnect the cable connector plug from the sensor and remove it. The following scenarios are possible:
If the sensor is correctly wired, the status LED on the corresponding channel responds and flashes orange.
If the status LED responds on a different channel, the connections on the terminal block are out of
sequence. Replace the connections on the terminal block and repeat the position test for all sensors.
It can take a few moments for the status LED to respond. This is because the CMS regularly performs over-
all value calculations in the context of the measurement configuration.
lReconnect the cable plug to the sensor and wait until the status LED displays the OK state (green) again.
lRepeat these steps for all sensors.
