MEASUREMENTS WITH CONTACT
The mechanical adaptor is an accessory which is placed in front of the sighting
window of the optical sensor. It transforms the optical measurement without
contact into a measurement with contact on the moving part.
There are three different accessories available :
- a rubber cone with a tip allowing measurements at the end of shafts on axles
down to 5 mm diameter.
- a rubber cylinder for measurement at the end of a flat shaft or with axles less than
5 mm diameter due to hollowing.
- a rubber wheel for measurement of the linear speed
(1 revolution of the wheel = 0.1 m).
MEASUREMENTS WITH EXTERNAL INPUT
The instrument has a 4 contact plug for connection to an alternative external source
for measurement of the speed, frequency, periodicity, duty %...
In order to inform the tachometer that the measurement is being made at the
external input it is necesary to short circuit pins 1 and 4.
Operation on external input is indicated on the display by the suppression of the
emission symbol
