VCMOnline ® - the complete surveillance system The VCMOnline ® monitoring system is built on a foundation of data acquisition modules measuring between 2 and 16 channels. This provides a flexible, customizable solution, designed to suit each and every requirement. Additional channels can be activated electronically as your needs expand. LED indicators provide a easily interpretable visual display of the current status of the VCMOnline ® module. Each module provides two configurable relay outputs, providing the ability to activate audible alarms, warning lights or machine shutdowns when a particular alarm state is detected. Speed reference is acquired by up to 2 tachometer inputs. The tachometer inputs are connected to the analog inputs of the VCMOnline ® module, ensuring accurate order tracking when needed. Pulse-type speed input gives you the capability to configure the number of tachometer pulses per revolution. Each VCMOnline ® module utilizes an Ethernet connection or 900MHz wireless modem to transfer the data to the host computer. Simply connect the remote module directly into your plant’s existing wired network, or for that difficult to monitor machine or wind turbine, simply integrate the remote module(s) into a wireless mesh network.

Continuous online surveillance is the most effective way to implement a vibration analysis program that will most dramatically minimize production losses and drive down the overall cost of maintenance. In order to provide you the clearest possible picture of your machine operating condition, the VCMOnline ® system can measure and record many different process parameters. This gives you the ability to trend and trigger alarms providing you the capability to assess not only vibration related faults, but also to analyzed how your machines are performing on a continuous basis. VCManager ® – advanced software The powerful VCManager ® vibration analysis software is the cornerstone of Monitek’s online systems. Configured for a single user PC or as a network accessible application, VCManager ® provides evaluation of problems. View the plant status at a glance – VCManager ® and VCMBreeze ® provide visual notification of the current alarm levels. VCMServer ® utilizes the data within the network database, which has been updated by VCManager ®, to manage the VCMOnline ® system in a network configuration. Monitek will assist you to set up measurement parameters and alarm values using Monitek’s Smart Alarm System, then fine-tune alarm limits with statistical analysis based on each machine’s historical data. VCManager ® or VCMServer ® will notify plant personnel by text message and/or e-mail when your machine develops a problem, dependant on system configuration. Time waveforms, FFT, overall vibration values, bearing demodulation, phase, speed and interactive charting are some of the VCManager ®’s software’s diagnostic capabilities, allowing you to investigate specific machine problems with ease. The VCMOnline ® system can be configured to collect data when specified operating conditions exist. For example, running speed is measured during data collection to ensure suitability of data. The VCMOnline ® system can also collect additional data, and increase the data collection frequency, when alarm conditions occur. The VCManager ® and VCMServer ® software packages are OPC data acquisition compliant which makes integration with your plant’s DCS or SCADA system seamless. VCManager ® provides the following key benefits, through our key applications • Information Networking – through VCManager ® (Network License) • View machine status anywhere anytime – through VCMBreeze ® • Receive alarm notifications at any location 24/7 Revision Date: 1 July 2011 3 of 6 ©Monitek, Inc. 2011 • Enhance your existing plant monitoring system – through VCManager’s ® and VCMServer’s ® OPC functionality • Minimize man power allocated for routine data collection by utilizing the stand alone collection and analysis capabilities of VCMOnline ® • Automated database file management with built in routine backups and data thinning VCMOnline ® data acquisition modules The VCManager ® software package is utilized to establish application configuration settings such as, time intervals that data is to be measured, data acquisition parameters and any additional criteria which must be met before a measurement is taken. These settings are then communicated to the VCMOnline ® data acquisition module allowing it to operate autonomously. The VCMOnline ® data acquisition module communicates the data it collects back to the centralized database as measurements are taken. If the communications link is broken, the VCMOnline ® data acquisition module will retain the data until the communications link is restored and the data has successfully been archived. When the VCMOnline ® data acquisition module returns the data to the network database, VCManager ® or VCMServer ®, dependant on system configuration, will process the data, check the data for alarm conditions, report alarm status and write the data and processed information into the centralized database. VCMOnline ® System Configuration Simplicity and ease of use are important attributes of the VCMOnline ® System. This makes configuring and maintaining the online system trouble free.
