System responsive to machine vibrations and method of use

摘要

A first embodiment of a system for measuring and analyzing a machine property comprises a vibration detector; power source; data transmitter, and first data processor which can obtain and convert sensed vibration data into digital data to be transmitted through the data transmitter to a system server which comprises software for processing and analyzing data comprising the received sensed vibration data. In a second embodiment, the system comprises a vibration sensor and a terminal used to obtain sensed vibration data from the sensor and convert it into digital data to be transmitted through the first data transceiver, and, optionally, to a system server. In this embodiment, data may be presented visually on the user display area and user input received input from the user input area.
