1. INTRODUCTION
The MR3000 is a family of compact vibration and motion measurement system. As such it meets all
user expectations in a state-of-the-art device and thus is a highly reliable and efficient instrument
for various application fields.
The main instrument is the MR3000C, which is the first system that has been developed and the
most known among the customers all over the world. For this reason, in the user manual, its name
will appear many times. The MR3000TR is a product directly derived from the MR3000C with the
addition of 2 relay outputs and 1 trigger input.
The instruments of the MR3000 family are equipped with a newest generation of electronic
components, which allows a strong reduction in power consumption while increasing the computing
power. The MR3000 keeps the best features of the MR2002, with many new features, namely a
reduced size and lighter weight, high-speed communication (Ethernet and Wi-Fi) and an integrated
3G modem device (optional).
No special hardware or software is needed to communicate with the MR3000C – any device with a
Web browser and Internet connectivity (such as a Laptop or a Tablet) will do the job. The user can
set-up the unit, download files via any type of network connection (LAN, Wi-Fi or via 2G, 3G
network). The famous alerting feature of the MR2002 has been enhanced – alarm messages can
be sent as text-message (SMS) or E-Mail.
It is possible to connect the MR3000C/TR to the SCS cloud software (scs.bartec-syscom.com), in
order to visualize and post-process data coming from different devices. It is also possible to
remotely change the most important parameters of the instruments. In this way, it is possible to
manage many vibration surveys directly from the personal office.
The memory storage capacity of the MR3000 has been increased using off-the-shelf SD Flashcard.
The data-storage is managed by a file-system.
The MR3000 systems are pre-configured for the use with internal or external sensor. The
configuration presented in this document corresponds to the option with internal sensor.
The 3 orthogonally oriented sensors pick up the vibration and transform it into an electrical signal
which is proportional to velocity or acceleration. The signals of the sensors are continuously
digitized and stored in the ring-buffer memory. If the vibration exceeds the threshold level (trigger
criteria are fulfilled), the contents of the ring-buffer memory is written to the internal SD Flashcard.
The MR3000 may optionally be equipped with an external GPS antenna for a precise timing. By
default, the internal clock is synchronized by an NTP time-server using the Internet connection.
MR3000 devices may optionally be interconnected in a network with other MR3000 instruments.
The Master device provides additional network functionality, such as common trigger (simultaneous
recording in all MRs in the network) and common alarm (alarm voting logic, e.g. 2 out of ).
The MR3000 is water and shock resistant. An external rechargeable lead-acid battery ensures
continuous operation during power interruptions.
The MR3000C/TR, that sometimes will be called simply MR, is very easy to operate and requires
minimal maintenance. Routine maintenance and operation does not require a specialist.

information on it.
MR3000CMR3000C_TR_v2.0_rev1.odt subject to technical change without notice 16

2.5.5 Sensors
The MR3000C and the MR3000TR can be equipped with:
•an internal triaxial velocity sensor (as presented in Figure 2.5.5)
•an external triaxial velocity sensor
•three external uniaxial velocity sensors
Moreover, the MR3000C can also equipped with
•an internal triaxial accelerometer,
•an external triaxial accelerometer
Concerning the orientation, the MR3000 and the external sensors can be ordered for horizontal
mounting (typically on the ground) or for vertical mounting (on the walls).
Figure 2.5.5 The internal triaxial velocity sensor is located at the rear end of the housing.
2.6 Battery pack (optional)
An external battery can be used together with the MR3000C/TR. It is a lead-acid gel cell 5 Ah with

3. SET-UP o the MR3000
Connect a power source to the MR3000 (Battery pack, AC/DC converter to the power socket or a
PoE source to the LAN socket).
All 3 LEDs (green, yellow, red) are on and the 1st and 3rd line of the LCD become black during start-
up of the MR3000. Then all the 3 LEDs go off. The green LED is blinking while the MR3000
updates the database of the files on the SD card.
Once the unit is started, only the green POWER LED remains on. Now you can establish
communication with the MR3000 using any of the 3 methods described below.
3.1 Connecting to the MR3000 or the irst time (direct connection)
To communicate with the MR3000 you do not need any special software: any Web browser will do
the job. We assume that the MR3000 is in our workshop and we would like to set-up the
parameters for later field use. There are 3 methods for direct connection:
Wireless (Wi-Fi): You can establish connection using your PC or your tablet. This method is
intended to set-up the parameters or to look at some files if you are out in the field. You
don’t need a cable to talk to the MR3000. The disadvantage is that you can only talk to a
single MR3000 at a time.
Wired connection (via router): This method offers the most possibilities and needs no
configuration at start-up, but you need a router. If the router has access to the Internet, you
can do everything with your MR3000, including firmware upgrades. If you have a router with
PoE (Power over Ethernet) feature the MR3000 is powered through the LAN cable. You can
attach many MRs to the router and talk to all of them simultaneously. The disadvantage of
this method is that you need an additional device that you probably won’t carry out in the
field...
Wired connection (direct): As there is no router involved you will have to adjust the network
settings of the PC. Obviously, you can talk only to one MR3000 at a time.
Depending on the method you choose, the IP address of the MR will be different. The following
paragraphs describe these methods in detail.
3.1.1 Wireless connection
The MR3000 acts as a Wi-Fi access point. The procedure to establish Wi-Fi connection to the MR
is the same as connecting your PC or tablet to a Wi-Fi hot-spot. Scan the available Wi-Fi networks
for a network named “MR3000”, followed by a dash and the serial number. By default WPA2
encryption is enabled, the password is swissmade.
The following step by step instruction shows how to establish a Wi-Fi connection to the MR using a
WINDOWS PC or a smartphone.
MR3000CMR3000C_TR_v2.0_rev1.odt subject to technical change without notice 19

Click with the right mouse
button on the network icon on
the lower right edge of your
screen and select Connect to a
network – If you are already
connected to another network
you will have to disconnect
from this network first.
Select the MR3000 network
and click connect and….
.. enter the passphrase and
click connect.
