Prosig have a number of years experience in Signal Processing and also in the use of Linux, Ethernet, X-Windows, embedded processing and similar technologies. Look here for a number of articles, documents and notes on a variety of topics associated with PROTOR and the use of Linux for remote monitoring applications within industrial environments. Use the links below to view or download the various notes and documents.
PROTOR includes displays for viewing the movement of a shaft within in bearing in the form of a shaft gap display. This display requires orthogonally mounted shaft proximity probes. This tutorial describes the displays available in general but with specific reference to the PROTOR historic module.
PROTOR includes displays for viewing shaft orbits. This display requires orthogonally mounted shaft proximity probes. This tutorial describes the displays available in general but with specific reference to the PROTOR historic module.
PROTOR utilises magneto-optical disks for data archive and storage. This procedure describes the steps necessary to change an archive disk when one become full.
PROTOR provides a large number of vibration alarm detection algorithms. This tutorial is specifically concerned with the sudden change or "step change" vector alarm.
PROTOR provides a number of features for the internationalisation of display screens. This includes the development of a language database for word and phrase translation. This document describes the process and the languages supported.
The keyphasor or tachometer signal is of vital importance to any system analysing data for rotating machines. This note describes the conditioning provided by PROTOR for tachometer signals and its effect on phase readings.
PROTOR incorporates facilities for resolving vibration into its vertical and horizontal components even when the transducers may not be physically mounted in these planes. This tutorial describes the transformation and the configuration setup.
This tutorial deals with the setup and configuration of transducer sensitivities within PROTOR for both dynamic and plant analogue channels.
PROTOR include facilities for user input text annotation used to identify an event in time or an observation. This tutorial describes the facility and it uses.
