8OWUD0JU&RQFHSWXDO2YHUYLHZ
UltraMgr is a personal computer-based suite of software programs designed to
work with the UltraSpec system of corrective technology products. This software
offers data archival and reporting functions. When used with the optional UltraPlot
software, tools are provided for display and analysis of dynamic data plots such as
spectral data, waveforms, time vs. amplitude based strip charts, and peak/phase/
RPM data. In addition to data archival, many of the applications supported by
UltraMgr also allow previous machine setups to be downloaded to an instrument.
This capability benefits the user in a number of ways:
It saves the user from re-entering the same descriptive information.
Notes that were attached to a job during a previous procedure can be
reviewed in the instrument before starting the new procedure, thus passing
along key information.
Allows data from a previous balance job to be used to reduce the number of
machine starts that may be required for a future balance procedure.
Allows data from a previous alignment job to be recalled along with previ-
ously determined thermal growth, soft foot, and movement constraint
information, saving the re-entry of vital data from paper records and
alerting the user to prior actions.
When using QC (Quality Control), previously defined machine acceptance
or quality tests can be downloaded for use as test templates whenever
needed.
UltraMgr can be installed to operate as a stand-alone program, or with other AMS
Machinery Manager software. When used with AMS Machinery Manager software,
you can quickly shift from analyzing data in one program to correlating conclu-
sions with key information contained in another. For example, if an analyst deter-
mined from route data in AMS Machinery Manager that a particular machine
needed to be balanced, the balancing history of the machine could be quickly
called up using UltraMgr. UltraMgr could then be used to determine the last time
the machine was balanced, who balanced the machine, how well it was balanced,
problems encountered, and how often it had been balanced.

 &RPPRQ)XQFWLRQV
UltraMgr enables all balancing, alignment, troubleshooting, acceptance, and
quality tests to be combined into a common system. Historically, these functions
have been mistakenly viewed as independent one-time events with little need for
systematic tracking or record keeping. In reality, hard dollar benefits from
improved machine reliability and operational and maintenance efficiency can be
derived from the ability to establish historical and current correlation, as well as
continuity from one job to the next.
The main menus of UltraMgr suite of applications contain some common func-
tionality. Those common functions are covered in this chapter. Common functions
cross individual application lines and apply to the database and user interface in
general.

The Assign Jobs function allows you to move stored jobs between the unassigned
area in the database to a piece of equipment, from a piece of equipment to the
unassigned area, and from a piece of equipment to a different piece of equipment.
The ability is provided because when a job is uploaded into the computer it is
placed in the Unassigned Area if a match is not found for the equipment informa-
tion.



Unassigned Area to Equipment: To move a job from the unassigned area to a


piece of equipment, you will first be prompted to select the job in the unassigned
area to move. Then you will be prompted to select the piece of equipment to move
the job to. The selected job will be moved to the selected piece of equipment.
Equipment to Unassigned Area: To move a job from a piece of equipment to the
unassigned area, you will first be prompted to select a job to move. You will only be
allowed to select jobs already attached to a piece of equipment. The selected job will
be moved to the unassigned area.
Equipment to Equipment: To move a job from a piece of equipment to a different
piece of equipment, you will first be prompted to select a job to move. You will only
be allowed to select jobs already attached to a piece of equipment. You will then be
prompted to select the piece of equipment to move the job to. The selected job will
be moved to the selected piece of equipment.

Special checks are performed prior to allowing the movement of an
alignment job to guarantee that the equipments alignment orienta-
tion (horizontal or vertical) and coupling setup agree with the infor-
mation stored in the job definition. In either case, if the setup
information does not agree, then the move may not be allowed.

For example, if a job is assigned coupling number two, and the


selected equipment is defined as having only one coupling, then the
move will not be allowed. Also, if the job is defined on a jackshaft cou-
pling and the corresponding machine coupling is normal, then the
move will not be allowed.

1RWH
Moving alignment jobs may change the alignment results. It will not
change the stored laser-head readings or calculated moves, however
it may change the alignment tolerances. If the alignment tolerance
change as a result of a job move, then the alignment results may be
different than the results displayed in the meter. This may also impact
the accuracy of the alarms stored in the RBMview database. This is
because of the way that alignment tolerances are associated with a job.
For a detailed discussion of alignment tolerances and their implica-
tions, see Alignment Module (UltraAlg) on page 2-1.

(GLW6WRUHG-REV
The function allows you to change the job number stored in a job definition. This
option may be used to change the job numbers to your own tracking systems num-
bering scheme (e.g., work order numbers). You must first select the job to edit from
the tree, then you are allowed to edit the job number for the selected job.

In the Alignment application you will also be given the option to edit
a jobs efficiency parameters. See Edit Efficiency Parameters on
page 2-27.

In the Motor application you will also be given the option to edit a
jobs motor measurement labels. See Edit Stored Jobs on page 7-13.

'HOHWH-REV
This function allows specific jobs to be located and deleted. All setup information
and data will be deleted for the selected job. When this option is selected, you will
be prompted to select a job for deletion. You will be allowed to select jobs from
either equipment or the unassigned area. You will be asked to confirm that you
want to delete the selected job. Deleted data cannot be recovered! Once a job is
deleted, it is gone forever. It cannot be recovered.

&DXWLRQ
Deleted data cannot be recovered! Once a job is deleted, it is gone forever. It
cannot be recovered.

CSI strongly recommends that you backup your database on a regular basis.

This chapter deals with the storage and management of alignment data. Storing
alignment information in a database provides many advantages that include:
The ability to quickly retrieve and review the alignment status of all the
equipment in an entire plant. This helps to plan the maintenance priorities
and scheduling.
The ability to retrieve and review the alignment history of a particular tech-
nician to determine if more training is needed.
The ability to quickly retrieve and review the alignment history of a partic-
ular piece of equipment to determine if the equipment is going out of align-
ment too frequently.
The ability to use previously entered and stored equipment-specific data and
setup information in the present alignment of the same equipment.
The ability to use previously entered and stored equipment-specific data and
setup information in the present alignment of similar equipment, thus
requiring only minor changes in the setup.
The ability to recall the complete alignment job previously performed on
the present equipment (including notes) to see peculiarities that might
affect alignment. Also, the name of the technician that performed the pre-
vious alignment is available in case there are any questions.
Since UltraMgr is also compatible with CSIs AMS Machinery Manager, when both
products are installed, you can quickly switch from vibration spectra to check the
alignment status of the equipment under investigation.

 $OLJQPHQW0RGXOH 8OWUD$OJ


After selecting Alignment Jobs from the Document/Report tab in the AMS
Machinery Manager main menu, the Alignment main menu is displayed.

Alignment Reports: Allows you to generate a variety of alignment reports ranging

In order to judge the quality of an alignment job, CSI has supplied some guidelines
on the amount of misalignment that can be tolerated. These guidelines are in the
form of the maximum offset and angle that can be considered Excellent and
Acceptable. The numbers are functions of RPM because the higher the RPM the
smaller amount of misalignment that can be tolerated.
Misalignment limits are treated as the major and minor axes of an ellipse. If plotted,
actual misalignment values that fall inside the Excellent ellipse will be considered
Excellent. Values that fall outside the Excellent ellipse but inside the Acceptable
ellipse will be considered Acceptable. Values outside the Acceptable ellipse will be
considered Out-Of-Tolerance.
As an aid to the analyst, the reports will include a rough measure of how far out
of tolerance the equipment is after each move. The software derives this rough
measure by completing the following steps:
1. . . Plot the offset misalignment on the abscissa (x-axis).
2. . . Plot the angle misalignment on the ordinate (y-axis).
3. . . Plot the excellent and acceptable ellipses.
4. . . Connect the origin and misalignment data points.
5. . . Calculate the length of this segment (the misalignment length).

$OLJQPHQW5HSRUWV 
1RWH
The preceding steps are for an alignment job using a standard (offset
and angle) tolerance. An alignment job using a jackshaft (angle and
angle) tolerance would use the same steps, but the abscissa (x-axis),
in Step 1, would be an angle misalignment.

6. . . If the alignment condition is Out-Of-Tolerance, calculate the length of the


segment from the origin to where the line intercepts the acceptable ellipse
(the acceptable length). The ratio of the misalignment length to the
acceptable length (multiplied by 100 to change it to percentage) will provide
a rough indication of how far the alignment condition is from being
acceptable (see following figure).

7. . . If the alignment condition is acceptable, calculate the length of the segment


from the origin to where the line intercepts the excellent ellipse (the
excellent length). The ratio of misalignment length to the excellent length
(multiplied by 100 to change it to percentage) will provide a rough
indication of how far the alignment condition is from being excellent (see
following figure).

 $OLJQPHQW0RGXOH 8OWUD$OJ




8. . . If the alignment condition is excellent, calculate the length of the segment


from the origin to where the line would intercept the excellent ellipse (if
extended). This is the excellent length. The ratio of the misalignment length
to the excellent length (multiplied by 100 to change it to percentage) will
provide a rough indication of how much better the alignment condition is
as compared to the excellent tolerance values (see following figure).

This option allows you to edit the values in the selected tolerance table. The CSI
Default values cannot be edited. You will be presented with the entire alignment tol-
erance table. An alignment tolerance table consists of between 1 to 10 RPM ranges
in ascending order. Only the ending RPM range is displayed. The last RPM range
is not displayed because it encompasses all RPM values greater than the previous
ending RPM range. Associated with each RPM range are Excellent and Acceptable
tolerance value(s). The Standard and Vertical Alignment Tolerance table type will
have an excellent offset and angle and an acceptable offset and angle. The Jack-
shaft Alignment Tolerance table type will have only an excellent and acceptable
angle.

This chapter deals with the storage and management of balance data. The storage
of balance information in a database provides many advantages that include:
The ability to quickly retrieve and review the balance status of all equipment
in an entire plant to help plan the maintenance priorities and scheduling.
The ability to retrieve and review the balancing history of a particular tech-
nician to determine if more training is needed.
The ability to quickly retrieve and review the balance history of a particular
piece of equipment to determine if the equipment is going out of balance
too frequently.
The ability to use previously entered and stored equipment-specific data and
setup information in the present balance job on the same equipment,
thereby reducing setup time and required number of balance runs.
The ability to use previously entered and stored equipment-specific data and
setup information in the present balance job on a similar piece of equip-
ment, thus requiring only minor changes in the field and possibly reducing
the number of balance runs.
The ability to recall the complete balance job previously performed on the
present equipment, including notes, to see peculiarities that might affect
balance. Also, the name of the technician that performed the previous bal-
ance is available in case there are any questions.
UltraMgr is also compatible with CSIs AMS Machinery Manager. If you have both
products, you can quickly switch from vibration spectra to check the balance status
of the piece of equipment under investigation.

This chapter deals with the storage and management of Quality Control (QC) or
acceptance test data. The purpose of the UltraSpec QC program is to allow the
application of predefined vibration-based specifications to new or rebuilt
machinery for the purposes of quality control or acceptance. UltraMgr allows this
data to be transferred to a computer providing a number of advantages, including:
Long term archival of test data.
Access to data by other modules for viewing of dynamic data.
Report generation.
The ability to download to the UltraSpec instrument previously defined test
setups, thereby allowing standardization of procedures and minimum setup
time.
The basic UltraMgr QC function is designed primarily for test template storage,
data archival, and report generation. It does not provide tools for the analysis of
vibration spectra or strip charts. However, the optional UltraPlot module, used for
the viewing and analysis of UltraSpec Analyze data, will extend the UltraMgr QC
functionality.

This chapter deals with the storage and management of data taken with the
UltraSpec Analyze application. Dynamic data which may be displayed for analysis
or printing includes:
Spectra (FFTs)
Waveforms
Strip Chart Plots of dynamic data such as overall amplitudes, DC voltages, or
temperature.
Peak Phase data including RPM vs. Synchronous Amplitude, RPM vs. Phase,
or Nyquist Plot.
The storage of dynamic data in the personal computer offers many advantages
which include:
Allows longer term storage of important data, freeing up data storage space
in the analyzer.
The ability to quickly retrieve, review, and print the vibration record of a par-
ticular machine for purposes of comparing before and after data, reporting,
etc.
The ability to review field notes attached to a data set or a job, to assist in anal-
ysis, or check on items needing follow-up.
The ability to manipulate and label data on-screen for fault analysis or as
custom plots highlighting specific data of interest.
The ability to export the data to a printout, or to a file, in ASCII format, for
importing into spreadsheets, other databases, or special graphics programs.

Spectral Plot

5RWRU%DU'HWDLO5HSRUW 6SHFWUDO3ORW

The spectral plot included in the Rotor Bar Analysis report is displayed in dB. A
dashed line is displayed to mark the Line Frequency (LF) peak. A dashed line is
drawn parallel to the horizontal axis, at an amplitude 50 dB below the amplitude of
the LF peak. If there are no sideband peaks penetrating this threshold then there
is little or no rotor damage detected. The cursor is initially located at the estimated
Lower Slip Sideband (LSSB). The user can locate the LSSB by moving the cursor
to a new location.
As the cursor is moved to the LSSB, or to the RPM sideband (RPMSB) below the
line frequency peak, a calculated RPM is determined and displayed as CRPM. If the
CRPM is unreasonable for this motor then the user has probably selected the
wrong sideband peak. If the LSSB has a corresponding RPM sideband peak then
this increases the confidence level that the correct LSSB has been selected. This
RPM sideband peak is not usually detectable for 3600 RPM equipment.
The tools available for analysis of a Rotor Bar spectral plot, located on the Graphics
Function Bar, are shown below.

6DPSOH0RWRU-RE5HSRUWV E\0HDVXUHPHQW7\SH 


LSSB/RPMSB - toggles the cursor location between the Lower Slip Side-
band (LSSB) and the RPM Sideband (RPMSB).
Peak List - displays a list of the highest peaks located on the spectrum.

Locate - this key provides a more accurate indication of the frequency of a


spectral peak. It can be used to more accurately determine the frequency
and amplitude of a peak. If you have identified the spectral peak corre-
sponding to the LSSB, you can use the locate button to better locate the fre-
quency of the peak by first moving the cursor to the point nearest the
spectral peak, and then pressing the Locate key. The LSSB and Calculated
RPM, displayed at the lower right of the spectrum, will then be updated
with more accurate values.
OK - accepts the analysis. The current cursor location is assumed to be the
user located LSSB. If the cursor location is not at the initial LSSB location
the following message will be displayed.

If the new cursor location is the intended user located LSSB then click on the Yes
button. This will update the stored information, and future analysis will show the
new LSSB as the initial cursor location. If the new cursor location is not the
intended user located LSSB then click the No button.

Percentage Broken Rotor Bars : 0.68

5RWRU%DU'HWDLO5HSRUW $QDO\VLV

It is essential to accurate analysis that the correct LSSB peak is determined. The
surest means is to make an accurate speed measurement at the time the rotor bar
data is acquired.
If no peak other than the line frequency (LF) peak is above the dashed horizontal
line at 50 dB down from the LF peak amplitude, the machines test results are OK
regardless of the correct LSSB frequency.
The program calculates load based on both RPM slip from synchronous speed and
on the measured amperage. If these two calculations differ by more than 20%,
then a cautionary warning is displayed. The user should verify the selected RPM.

The Corrective Data Transfer program allows supported applications to upload
information from the analyzer to the computer, and download it from the com-
puter to the analyzer.
However, not all data transfer options are available to every program. The following
table shows the communications functions that are available for each AMS
Machinery Manager corrective program.

When using Alignment or Balance, all job setup information and data can be trans-
ferred to and from the computer.
Although the analyzer can transfer setup information (test templates) from QC
jobs to or from the computer, data is only transferred to the computer (not back to
the analyzer). At this time, Analyze and Motor will only accept jobs from the
UltraSpec analyzer.
The storage of dynamic data in the personal computer offers many advantages
including:
Longer term storage of important data, freeing up data storage space in the
analyzer.
The ability to quickly retrieve, review, and print the jobs performed on a par-
ticular piece of equipment for purposes of comparing before and after data,
reporting, etc.
The ability to review field notes attached to a data set or a job in order to
assist in analysis or to check on items needing follow-up.
The ability to manipulate and label data on screen for fault analysis or as
custom plots that highlight specific data of interest.

 &RUUHFWLYH'DWD7UDQVIHU
The ability to export the data to a printout, or to an ASCII file, for importing
into spreadsheets, other databases, or special graphics programs.

1RWH
Since all applications transfer data in the same manner, the following
sections apply to all Corrective application modules.

1RWH
Motor does not communicate with any UltraSpec Motor versions
prior to v1.10.

Global parameters that apply to the data transfer program may be
defined by selecting the Global Param button in the Function Bar, or
by choosing the Global Param F2 key in the Tools menu.

Load Balance Job Option: Toggle between Keep Trim Data and
Remove Trim Data. When loading balance jobs into the analyzer,
this enables you to either load trim data with the job, or remove the
trim data.
Maximum Analyze Data Duration: This defines the maximum number of days
that an Analyze Data Set date can deviate from the job definition date and still be
stored in the database.

&RPPXQLFDWLRQ6HWXS
To enable communications, you must make sure that certain options selected in
the meter match options set in the Corrective Data Transfer application. To access
these options, select the Comm Setup button in the function bar, or hit the Comm
Setup F7 key in the Tools menu.

 &RUUHFWLYH'DWD7UDQVIHU
Communication Port: Select the serial port (COM1 or COM2) that will be used for
communications between the computer and the analyzer.
Stop Bit Selection: Select the number of stop bits to be used in communications
between the computer and the analyzer. This must match setting in analyzer.
Baud Rate Selection: Select the Baud Rate at which the computer and the analyzer
are going to communicate. This must match setting in analyzer.
Number of Retries:
Transmit: (Default = 5) Enter the number of times the computer is to retry
to communicate when the analyzer does not respond or does not respond
correctly to a transmission. This does not have to match setting in analyzer.
Receive: (Default = 5) Enter the number of times the computer is to retry
to communicate when the computer can not receive or can not receive cor-
rectly, information from the alignment analyzer. This does not have to
match setting in analyzer.
Timeout Delay (Seconds):
Transmit: (Default = 2.0) Enter the amount of time the computer is to wait
for a response from the alignment analyzer after a transmission before
timing out. This does not have to match setting in analyzer.
Receive: (Default = 0.5) Enter the amount of time the computer is to wait
to receive information from the alignment analyzer before timing out. This
does not have to match the setting in analyzer.

1RWH
Make sure that the analyzer timeout setting is long enough to allow
you to go through selection menus and answer questions. In other
words, set the UltraSpec or 2120 analyzer timeout long enough to
allow you to complete the selection process. Typically, 15 to 20 sec-
onds will provide enough time.

1RWH
Data is transferred from only one application at a time. To have suc-
cessful communications, the same application must be active (must
match) in both the analyzer and computer.


$QDO\]HU6HWXS
Before attempting to transfer data, make sure your communications cable is con-
nected to the COM port selected in Communication Setup on page 8-4.

1RWH
The transfer is performed via direct computer to analyzer hook-up
using a Model 639 communications cable. This cable is supplied as
standard equipment with the analyzer (no modem is required).
When Host PC Load/Dump is selected, the analyzer automatically
awaits signals from the computer to begin transferring stored job(s)
data. A screen stating that the analyzer is awaiting host commands will
be displayed. This screen will be displayed until the time needed for
all retries has been used up. At that point, a communications error
message will be displayed.

Press the Utility button on the analyzer and select the Communications option.

Communications - The Communications menu is used to establish communica-
tions with the host computer and to provide utilities for controlling communica-
tion parameters of the analyzer as well as an external modem. Select the Host PC
Load/Dump option.

&RPPXQLFDWLRQV)XQFWLRQ0HQX

Host PC Load/Dump - The Load function is used to transfer one or more jobs
from the computer database into the analyzer. The Dump function is used to
transfer the modified jobs in storage to the computer database.
When Host PC Load/Dump is selected, the analyzer automatically awaits signals
from the computer to begin transferring stored job(s) data. A screen stating that
the analyzer is awaiting host commands will be displayed. This screen will be dis-
played until the time needed for all retries has been used up. At that point, a com-
munications error message will be displayed. Otherwise, you are ready to transmit
data.

After selecting the Corrective Data Transfer application from the AMS Machinery
Manager main menu, the Corrective Data Transfer main menu is displayed.

Upload Jobs to Database: Allows you to load jobs stored in the analyzer to the cur-
rently selected AMS Machinery Manager database.
To facilitate communications, the corrective data transfer program reads all stored
jobs in the active application in the analyzer. Jobs that were loaded from the data-
base to the analyzer and which have not been modified will be ignored. Modified
jobs that came from the database, including default jobs, will be stored in the equip-
ment they came from. Jobs that were created in the analyzer will be stored in the
unassigned job area. These jobs can then be assigned to a defined piece of equip-
ment or held in the unassigned area until a new piece of equipment is defined.

 &RUUHFWLYH'DWD7UDQVIHU
When uploading jobs that were originally downloaded from the database to the
analyzer, they will be declared as locally created (unassigned) if one of the following
parameters is changed: Equipment ID, Equipment Description, Area Description,
Coupling Number, Physical Dimensions, or RPM.
After all the jobs have been read into the database, a summary will be presented so
you can see where each job was stored. This summary is also available in a file called,
AMDUMP.SUM located in the default AMS Machinery Manager Users directory.
If the default directory structure was used during the installation of AMS
Machinery Manager, the Users directory is located in the RBMsuite directory. This
file is overwritten each time jobs are read in from the analyzer; therefore, the con-
tents of the file only reflect the latest transactions.
Download Jobs to Analyzer: This option is only available on the Alignment, Bal-
ance, and QC tabs. It allows you to download jobs stored in the AMS Machinery
Manager database to the analyzer.


After selecting the Download Jobs to Analyzer option, transferring jobs from the
database into the analyzer involves selecting each job to be loaded. From the dis-
played tree, select an Area and a piece of Equipment. The Jobs defined under that
piece of Equipment will be displayed on the right side of the window. As you select
a Job, it will be displayed in the Multiple Selection List at the bottom of the window.
When the desired Jobs have been chosen, select the Ok button. Note that before
each Job is loaded, you will be given a chance to change the job number.

As the download begins, a message screen is quickly displayed with some relevant
information such as the date and time, the number of stored jobs, number of User
Defined Notes, etc. If Alignment jobs are being downloaded, additional message
screens are quickly displayed as the tolerance tables are downloaded. These toler-
ance tables are downloaded by default any time an Alignment job is sent to an ana-
lyzer.

 &RUUHFWLYH'DWD7UDQVIHU
Download Default Job: This option is only available on the Alignment, Balance,
and QC tab. It allows you to download a job from a piece of equipment in the cur-
rently selected database to the analyzer. The default job is essentially a template, it
will have all the equipment and area information, but no job data. This prevents
you from having to reenter existing information as a Local Job on the analyzer.
Downloading a default job enables the job to be uploaded directly to the equip-
ment it was downloaded from at a later date.
After selecting the Download Default Job option, you must select a piece of Equip-
ment from the displayed tree. Select the Ok button when the Equipment is high-
lighted. Before each Job is downloaded, you must supply a job number.

The alignment tolerance for the job will be set based on the coupling number
selected for the downloaded job and the tolerances assigned to that equipments
coupling in the AMS Machinery Manager database. You assign tolerances to equip-
ment couplings through the Alignment Jobs application.


1RWH
If the selected equipment contains more than one coupling, you will
be prompted for the coupling number when downloading a default
alignment job.

Download Tolerance Table: This option is only available on the Alignment Tab. It
allows you to download the current default alignment tolerances tables from the
AMS Machinery Manager database without downloading in any job setup informa-
tion or job data.
Both the Standard and Jackshaft Tolerance tables are downloaded.
