Data Collection Scheduling
With Device Manager installed, connected to the gateway and operational, refer to the
Wireless Sensor Device Manager User Manual
for details on continuing to build the
wireless system’s hierarchy, configuring the sensors and scheduling data collection.
This Service Manual presents some recommended setup guidelines for data collection
scheduling and examples for your convenience.
Coordination between settings on various setup tabs is required to properly set up your
wireless sensor data collection. Setup guidelines are provided in the following table,
which indicates the recommended wireless sensor setup for monitoring standard
machinery running at standard speeds (between 1500 and 3600 RPM).
The recommended setup shown in the table assumes that you
are collecting vibration overalls, temperature, and battery
measurements using burst mode. Recall that with burst mode
the sensor publishes data at regular intervals and burst data are
saved in gateway memory. When queried by the host software,
the gateway returns the cache data.
The figure following the table illustrates the recommended
