Measurement Computing eZ-TOMAS rev.11.0 - Manual (Page 79)

Reports are created using the option settings that are defined in the project. Among the options available
you have your choice to include:
• Specific channels.
• Specific Spectral Bands.
• Choice of Reference Tach.
• Starting and Ending data block range.
• The Maximum, Minimum or Average data value associated with a specific Spectral Band.
• Inclusion of the Limits settings in the report and the selection of which limits to include.
• A Pass/Fail indication. A Pass condition exists if the Spectral Band data never exceeds the
selected limit(s).
• Machine and operator information, and a project comment.
• Report formatting option.
• Speed Ranges. You can choose one of five options via radio button (see following figure). A
brief description of each follows shortly.
Speed Range Options
Note that the Limits Configuration dialog (discussed in chapter 4) allows you to configure two
sets of Ranges [and their associated Range Limits] in addition to the range independent Default
Limits. One set of Ranges and Limits are for the Alarms. The alarm settings are used during your
monitoring session and provide range sensitive limits that, if exceeded, will cause an alarm
condition. The other set of Ranges and Limits have no bearing on the data acquisition and are
used by the Microsoft Excel report generator in post-acquisition.
When you run your Excel report, the five different Speed Range options are as follows. The
Limits section of chapter 4 includes information pertaining to the actual setting of limits.
1. Default Limits. Selects the default limits. These are range independent. When this option is
selected all of the data [for each selected channel and gage] is compared against the default
limits.
2. Alarm RPM Range Limits. All of the data for each selected channel & gage is compared
against this set of ranges & limits. Up to 5 ranges can be selected from the resulting range list
(see following figure). The ranges are set in the Limits Configuration dialog, discussed in
chapter 4.
