Route measurement (PCE-VT 3900 only)
With the help of the route measurement, a regular check is made possible by measuring
numerous measuring spots in a certain sequence. The configuration of a route must be done via
the PC softw are, which is described in detail in the corresponding manual.
A route has a tree structure: Thus, up to 100 machines can be assigned to a single route in the
first level and up to 100 measuring spots to each individual machine in the second level. In total,
up to 100 different routes can be configured. The names of the individual route elements can be
freely assigned in the PC softw are. For each measuring spot, up to 1000 measured values can
be saved to enable a trend display.
