Adding Sensors

Note that a Shaft Trigger and Shaft Trigger Marker do not have a Location to set;

• The Shaft Trigger Position is set as normal.
• The Shaft Trigger Marker is set according to the pole on which the marker is installed.

Note:
The Shaft Trigger setup is shared between the EV sensor editor and
the Flux sensor editor; changes in one will affect the other.

5.1.2. Define EV Sensor Axes
The third page of the EV sensor editor shows the axis (or axes) that each sensor
monitors. Each axis that a sensor can monitor (referred to as ‘signal’) is listed in a table;
dual-axis sensors will be listed twice (once for each signal).
• Each signal is assigned a name that is a combination of the sensor name from (page
2) and the axis that the signal represents. For example, the radial signal from a dual-
axis sensor mounted on the phase lead at slot 42 would be called ‘PL Slot 42-R’; the
‘-R’ indicates ‘radial’. The Location and Position are shown for reference.
• Select the orientation of each signal.

• If multiple signals should be analyzed together as vectors, select the signals that will
be linked with each other. Only signals that have the same Location and Position
with different Orientations can be linked.
• Invert can be checked to compensate for mounting discrepancies. This only affects
the ODS analysis in EVView, and you may not know if it is required until seeing data
in EVView (refer to Section 9.1.6 for details).

• A warning icon is shown if there are any issues such as multiple signals that are
identical.
