FTEditor
4.1 Philosophy of use
As stated in the previous chapter, the analysis of vibrational problems with FTAnalyzer allows to
define the cause-fault relation affecting the machine vibrational signature.
For the best use of your software and to provide instruments improving your service, Sequoia IT
has developed the FTEditor module of FTAnalyzer.
FTEditor has been designed for diagnostics applications and its purpose is to help vibration experts
to define diagnostics “paths” based on pre-established tests which can also be used by less skilled
users.
Before explaining how to use FTEditor, it is necessary to outline the involved professional figures
and the way they can directly or indirectly interact with Sequoia IT software.
Architecture for use of Sequoia IT software
First, it is necessary to make a distinction between the vibration expert user (master) who will
define the diagnostics paths for the different machines (according to a documented experience) and
the maintenance operator who will implement the established models with FTEditor through the
Esplora 3D software.
In other words, the expert user will set up an archive with the different tests and related guidelines
through FTEditor, while the maintenance operator will implement these tests for the machine state
monitoring through the Esplora 3D software.
