value, you can turn off averaging to discard the previous values and read a true value
more quickly.
6.
When the speed, vibration, and phase values are stable, press <STORE>. This
completes the plane 1 measurement and begins the plane 2 measurement.
7.
The dataPAC automatically measures the speed, vibration, and phase in the second
plane. The values are constantly updated on the screen. Allow these values to stabilize
before continuing to the next step.
8.
Press <STORE> to complete the measurement.
9.
Shut down the machine and attach the trim weights whose weights and positions are
indicated on the dataPAC display.
Note:
Do not remove the original correction weights.
10. Continue to trim-balance the machine as required. After securing the trim weights,
bring the rotor up to balance speed and take a measurement. The dataPAC takes
vibration readings, calculates new trim weights, and displays them as described above.
If the vibration has been reduced to an acceptable level, balancing is complete. Save
your balancing data, if necessary, by pressing <SHIFT><F5>. The Save Balancing
Data window appears. Enter the file name. When your entry is complete, press
<DONE>, or press <SHIFT><F5> (Abort) to cancel the entry.
However, if the rotor is still out of balance, repeat adding the correction weight and
taking residual measurements as many times as are necessary until the rotor is properly
balanced. If the balance never improves, check to see if you entered the correct trial
weight size and location, or check other factors such as misalignment or a faulty
bearing.
Unloading Balancing Runs using a Modem
Model 1500 only
Using the dataPAC 1500 V5 Remote Transfer program, you can connect the dataPAC to a
Hayes-compatible modem and load and unload to a host computer. This allows you to copy
routes and balancing runs to and from a host computer.
The Remote Transfer program also allows you to place an external modem attached to the
dataPAC into auto answer mode, so that the remote host computer can “call” the dataPAC in
order to transfer files and information. This external modem is connected to the dataPAC
with a special cable which you can order from Entek IRD. The external modem must have a
25-pin connector to connect to the dataPAC with the special cable.
This section discusses loading route files to the dataPAC from a host computer, using lists
created in EMONITOR Odyssey or Enshare. You can also load and unload balancing
information.
The host computer must be running the dataPAC Utility program in server mode in order to
allow connections.
