RL-C25

Vibration control and data acquisition system

Advanced highly-accurate vibration control and data acquisition system designed for multichannel applications.

Scalable architecture allows the user to expand the system up to 512 channels in a synchronized data acquisition set.

The modular principle of hardware configuration provides flexibility to suit different user demands.

The following variants of configuration are available: 24/0, 16/4, 8/8 (in/out channels per controller).

Two advanced software packages – TestUp and VisAnalyser – power the system to fulfill the vibration control and data acquisition functionality.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

TestUp does not see the device. There is a message saying that the device has not been found.

Check the connection of the Ethernet cable to the device and PC. Check if the device is loading. Another thing to check in case TestUp does not see the device is whether Windows Firewall is enabled and whether there is an antivirus installed. They should be disabled.

Are the settings of channels and shakers, which I specify, saved?

The settings are saved to dedicated databases, and, having specified them once, you are able to use them in all tests.

Can any problems occur if an antivirus is installed on my PC?

We do not recommend using anti-virus programmes on your PC when working with RL-C21 or RL-C25. As the PC communicates with the devices through the network, the antivirus software may sometimes block data transfer. In case the antivirus software is installed and cannot be deleted, we recommend adding TestUp and the folder, to which it is installed, to the list of antivirus exceptions, or disable the protection.

There is high noise level on the shaker caused by the product, which is operating on it outside the test range. How do I not take this noise into consideration during control?

If it is Sine test, you should set the “Synchronous detector” control algorithm for the control channel. In case of Random test, select the "in task spectrum" parameter from the drop-down menu “RMS is calculated in…” of the “Control” tab.

Education

Multishaker tests in RL-C21 and RL-C25. Theory and application.

Multishaker tests have recently gained popularity for tests of large objects, which cannot be placed on one shaker, or for simultaneous vibration impact on the object on several axes. This approach allows imitating the actual vibration conditions of operation more closely.

What is Kurtosis

Kurtosis is a parameter of any signal, which represents its “peakedness”. If kurtosis is high, there are more peaks in the signal and their amplitudes are greater. In the most commonly used random signal with Gaussian distribution the value of kurtosis is three.
