The manufacturer's logo is applied to the front panel of the device.
Its serial number is printed on the back panel.
1.6 Packing
The device is delivered in a packing container to prevent damage during transportation.

2 INTENDED USE
2.1 Operational limitations
The operation of the device must be carried out under the conditions of influencing
factors and taking into account the parameters of the controlled objects in accordance with
the agreed technical characteristics, and the device must also be used within the framework
of its technical characteristics.
The user who is familiar with the operating documentation for this device is allowed to
work with the device.
After transporting the device to the place of operation at a negative ambient temperature
and bringing it into a room with a positive temperature, in order to avoid failure due to
moisture condensation, keep the product in the package for at least 2 hours.
During storage, the Vibration Meter Pen must be in a packing container, the battery
charge must be at least 50%.
2.2 Preparing the device for use
Carry out an external examination of the device, make sure that there are no mechanical
damages. If there is any dirt, wipe the display and the housing of the device with a clean
cloth.
Before using the device, make sure that there is sufficient charge in the Vibration Meter
Pen. When the low battery indicator appears, which is located on the right side of the display,
you need to connect the device to a PC using a USB cable or to a charger
Note - When using the Vibration Meter Pen for the first time, it is necessary to conduct an
external examination of the device and, without turning it on, recharge it until the charge indicator is
full by connecting it to a PC using a USB cable. The battery charge level is shown on the right side of
the display. After that, 2-3 complete charge and discharge cycles of the battery should be performed.
Prepare the surface of the controlled object, it should be as clean, smooth, and free of
contamination as possible.
2.3 Using the device
2.3.1 Turning on
The device is switched on by short-term pressing of the " " button, after which you
can select the required operating mode of the Vibration Meter Pen.
2.3.2 Measurement modes
Switching between modes is carried out by pressing the " " key. The device operates
in the following modes: vibration acceleration measurement mode (m / s2); vibration speed
measurement mode (mm / s); vibration displacement measurement mode (mm); mode of the
ratio of peak acceleration and vibration speed.
Vibration acceleration measurement mode
Acceleration measurement is especially useful for localizing high frequency vibrations
and is therefore suitable for detecting faults in bearings and gearboxes. Acceleration is
measured in m / s².
Vibration velocity measurement mode

Velocity is the most commonly used parameter and is used to measure vibration in
accordance with ISO 2372, BS 4675, VDI 2056 and ISO 10816. Velocity is measured in mm / s.
Vibration displacement measurement mode
Due to its good low frequency response, this parameter is usually used in low speed
applications. The unit for this parameter is mm.
2.3.3 Measurements
Switch on the device and set the operating mode by pressing the " " key several
times until the desired mode is displayed. The modes are set in the following order:
"acceleration" (m / s2) - "speed" (mm / s) - "displacement" (mm) - "ratio of peak and
root-mean-square vibration values".
Place the Vibration Meter Pen on the object of measurement and press it perpendicularly
to the surface of the product with a force of 2 to 5 kg, ensuring reliable contact of the sensor
with the object, press and hold the " " key - the device will start measuring vibration.
The measurement result is displayed on the LCD.
During of measuring vibration, the device makes cyclic measurements at intervals of one
second. The vibration value is shown on the display until the end of the next measurement.
For more accurate measurement results, it is recommended to measure two or three times. If
the readings are unstable, check that the force is applied and the instrument is positioned
correctly.
When machines (mechanisms) are operating under the same conditions, you can use a
Vibration Meter Pen to carry out comparative measurements. By analyzing the data obtained,
it is possible to detect possible malfunctions of individual machines at an early stage. To
achieve high accuracy with the instrument, you must make sure that these measurements are
always taken at the same points.
Note - The device uses the power saving mode. If the device is left on, it will turn off automatically
after 20 seconds.
