Balancing Extension Module Chapter 2

Specific differences exist between single and two-plane balancing measurement
field settings. Setup options specific to two-plane procedures are detailed below.

See

Single Plane Balancing on page 26

section for all other settings that apply to

both single and two-plane balancing.

Set-up Options Specific to Two-plane Balancing

Adjust these settings on the Balance Setup screen for a two-plane procedure.
See

Balance Extension Module Parameters on page 22

for descriptions.

1.

Enter 2 for Num. of Planes to specify a two-plane balancing procedure.

Other setup fields may adjust to display options specific to two-plane
balancing.

2.

Select whether or not you are using one or two transducers in the Num.
Transducers field.
Select one if you are moving a single transducer between channel 1 and

channel 2 to collect the measurements.

Select 2 to affix a transducer to each plane (using Connector A and

Connector 2 on the data collector) and take both measurements
simultaneously.

3.

In the Solutions field, select whether or not you are using a Dynamic or
Static-Couple
Select Dynamic to compute two correction weight solutions for a

two-plane balancing procedure.

A Static-Couple option is available for situations where you wish to

compute three correction weights, one to correct the static unbalance,
and two to correct the couple unbalance (static-couple balancing).

See

Static-couple Balancing on page 18

for more information about the

Static Couple parameter.

4.

Select Plane 1/Plane 2 – When setting up two planes, the Balance - Setup
screen expands to include a section for Plane 2 settings.
When two-plane balancing with one transducer, the Input Channel,

Coupling, Sensitivity, and Input Range are set on Plane 1 and apply to
both planes.

IMPORTANT

If using only one transducer, you must also specify the same input
channels for both Plane 1 and Plane 2 sections.

For two transducer balancing, you must also specify X and Y input
channels for Plane 1 and Plane 2 sections.
