Datastick® InSpect makes it easy to set up an inspection route on a PC, download it to the handheld computer, and upload the collected data to the PC.
To begin, start the InSpect RouteMaker application on your PC and build a hierarchical route. You can copy and paste entire machine setups to make the route-building even faster. In addition to vibration data, InSpect RouteMaker software enables you to build checklists and set up simple yes/no questions. (For example: simple questions that are sometimes overlooked, such as, “Is the machine running?” Yes/No.) If you wish, you can also include instructions to the operator on what to do if technician on the route spots trouble. When you've finished creating the route, click the mouse and the route loads onto the handheld computer.
As the technician runs the route, he simply taps NEXT on the handheld computer's touchscreen and takes the read. (A built-in safeguard prevents attempts to get a read from a sensor that hasn't settled.) If he needs to deviate from the route sequence, he can choose the next available inspection station from a list.
When the technician is finished running the route, he hands you the device and you upload the data to your PC and import it into a special version of Datastick Reporting System software for InSpect, where you can trend the data and create reports.
If you see that a machine needs full vibration analysis, you can open its vibration data in Datastick Reporting System for VSA or DAART (Datastick Advanced Analysis and Reporting Toolkit) software.
