During the speed measurement, the tachometer records the measured speed
values. After the speed measurement, the statistics of the measurement are
available (min, max and average). You can toggle between these values by
pressing the right button "next" (2).
The Mode can be changed by pressing the left button "mode" (1).to switch
from Rotational Speed, Linear Speed, Distance and Settings.
4.1.1 Laser mode
The laser mode allows the tachometer to determine the speed remotely. The
laser requires a reflective surface mounted on the rotating machine such as
the supplied reflective tape.
Using the laser helps to quickly determine the speed of the rotating object
and record the measured speeds.
A laser symbol on the screen indicates that the laser is active.
W A R N I N G :
Never point the laser at people, animals or mirror surfaces. The laser beam
can damage eyes.
In order to make a proper measurement, attach small reflective target to
machine shaft (typically 6 mm x 25 mm).
•
Start machine and point the tachometer towards the target.
•
Press and/or hold the centre button "measure" (3) to suit application
and/or hold it continuously during measurement.
•
Aim laser beam onto target
•
Read off rpm or Hz, pressing "stop" (3) or releasing button (3) will hold
last reading.
•
Last rpm or Hz reading will be held in display.
