PRODUCT DATA

Generator, Input/Output Module LAN-XI 51.2 kHz Type 3160

A combination of inputs and generator outputs make a completestand-alone analyzer test system. Type 3056 is ideal forapplications where system excitation is required – such as audioand electroacoustic test applications.

Type 3160 comes in two basic variants, offering the choice between2 inputs/2 outputs and 4 inputs/2 outputs. All input and outputchannels have a frequency range of DC to 51.2 kHz.

Type 3160 works equally well as a single-module test system, or asone part of a large LAN-XI measurement system. The combinationof inputs and output channels makes it one of the most versatiledata acquisition modules available, while interchangeable front-panels give the flexibility to use a wide range of transducers.

Input Channels

2

Independent ChannelsThe input channels on a module can be set up independently. You can set up the high-pass filters and inputgain separately and attach different types of transducer to different channels.

IEEE 1451.4 TransducersAll input modules support TEDS transducers. This allows automatic front-end and analyzer setup based onTEDS information stored in the transducer, for example, sensitivity, serial number, manufacturer andcalibration date. The individual frequency response of a transducer can be corrected for using PULSE’sTransducer Response Equalisation, REq-X, to achieve higher accuracy over extended frequency ranges.

OverloadConstant Current Line Drive (CCLD) conditioning monitors the supply voltage used by CCLD-compatibletransducers. Available CCLD transducers include:• Accelerometers• Charge amplifiers• Microphone preamplifiers• Tacho probes

If conditioning errors, such as a broken cable, are detected, an error is indicated as an overload on thespecific channel connector (using a ring-LED around the connector) and in the PC software.

Overload indications for input channels include (see Specifications for details): • Signal overload with adjustable detection level • CCLD overload: detection of cable break, short-circuit or CCLD transducer working point fault • Microphone preamplifier overload: detection of microphone preamplifier current consumption too high or

too low• Common mode voltage overload – relevant when input coupling is floating

Ground-loop Noise SuppressionThe module’s floating/grounded, differential input design and the fact that all external connections (LAN,power supply) are galvanically isolated in the module provide optimal ground-loop noise suppression.

Output Channels

Features• Two output channels: full generator functionality from 0 to 51.2 kHz• Output voltage up to 10 Vpeak and output current up to 40 mApeak in two output ranges only• Waveforms determined by software (see below)• High amplitude and frequency linearity• Extremely low noise floor• Selectable floating or grounded outputs• Capable of heavy complex loading without instability• Low out-of-band spurious noise• Overload detection on both channels individually (voltage and current) indicated by alternating red/blue

LEDs on front panel• Generator channel indicated by blue LED on front panel (active or not)• Automatic shutdown (muting) of both channels simultaneously at power failure• Full output phase control among LAN-XI modules*

The two output channels on Type 3160 can be used as high-quality signal generators with a frequency rangefrom 0 to 51.2 kHz and can supply the signals necessary for performing system analysis.

Type 3160 is designed around a powerful digital signal processor and a low-noise, 24-bit, D/A converter.Type 3160 has exceptional flexibility, stability and accuracy. Output levels are adjustable in hardware (tworanges) with maximum outputs of 316 mVpeak and 10 Vpeak. High-quality levels from 1 μV to 316 mV or 10 V

* Signal generators are not synchronized between LAN-XI and IDAe generator modules. This does not affect continuous signals (random, white- or pink-noise) but is not suitable for burst random signals and sine signals requiring phase control between generators.

are obtained. The output signal is provided by a BNC connector and can be referred to ground or floating. Itis possible to add a DC offset, but any unwanted DC offset is automatically removed.

When Type 3160 is powered by PoE, only the generator channels and two input channels can be used. If DCor mains power is available, the generator channels and all four input channels can be used.

WaveformsThe waveform types supported by PULSE are:

RangesThe fact that there are only two hardware ranges allows amplitude sweeping over a larger range without thepresence of disturbing transients from range-shifting attenuators. To avoid these transients, the range ofinterest can be locked.

Due to the large dynamic range, it is possible to generate very accurate low-level signals.

LinearityFrequency linearity is better than ±0.1 dB over the entire frequency range, and amplitude linearity is betterthan 0.1 dB over at least 100 dB amplitude range referred to full scale.

OverloadOutput voltages above 11 Vpeak or output currents above 40 mApeak are indicated as overloads by thecircular LEDs on the output channels.

SecurityAutomatic shutdown of both outputs is initiated in cases of heavy overload (shorted output) that could affectmodule functionality by drawing more current than available. The signal ramps up again when the overloadis removed.

• Single fixed sine (continuous or burst)• Single swept sine • Dual fixed sine • Dual swept sine • Fixed sine plus swept sine

• Stepped sine (with Steady State Response Analyzer)• Random (continuous or burst)• Pseudo-random • Periodic random • User-defined, arbitrary waveforms can be downloaded

PROTOCOLThe following standard protocols are used:• TCP• DHCP (incl. Auto-IP)• DNS (on top of UDP)• IEEE 1588–2002 (on top of UDP)• IP• Ethernet

ACQUISITION PERFORMANCEEach LAN-XI module generates data at almost 14 Mbit/s when measuring four channels at 51.2 kHz bandwidth. The modules are

capable of handling their own maximum traffic while the built-in switch in the frame’s backplane has more than sufficient capacity. This means that bottlenecks can only occur outside these, for example in:• External switches• PCFor convenience, it is possible to daisy-chain LAN-XI frames. However, it is not recommended to daisy-chain more than two frames. For larger configurations, a star configuration with a central switch is recommended. This must have a switch capacity well beyond N × 20 Mbit/s, where N is the total number of modules

PRODUCT DATA

4/6-ch. Input Module LAN-XI 51.2 kHz Type 3050

The core of the LAN-XI range of input modules, these modules aredesigned to cover as many sound and vibration measurementapplications as possible.

Type 3050 comes in two basic variants, offering the choicebetween four and six high-precision input channels with an inputrange from DC to 51.2 kHz Type 3050 works equally well as asingle-module system, or as part of a large LAN-XI measurementsystem – making it one of the most flexible data acquisitionsmodules on the market. In addition, interchangeable front panelsgive you the flexibility to use a wide range of transducers.

Uses and Features

Uses• General sound and vibration measurements • Measurement front-end module for PULSE™ measurement

and analysis software • Front-end for PC-based Data Recorder Type 7708 • Single-module measurements • Multi-module measurements/ distributed system • Stand-alone recording (no PC) using LAN-XI Notar™ software

One Cable OperationYou can use standard LAN cables for synchronous sampling between modules and system power, thanks toPower over Ethernet (PoE). This minimises the number of cables required and results in lower cost, lessdowntime, easier maintenance, and greater flexibility of installation.

Power over EthernetPoE is implemented according to IEEE 802.3af. PoE is wired Ethernet LAN technology that, with a suitablePoE LAN switch, allows the power needed for each module to be carried by screened shielded twisted pair(S/STP or S/FTP) CAT6 LAN cables rather than by separate power cables. This minimises the number ofcables required and results in lower cost, less downtime, easier maintenance and greater installationflexibility. PoE switches, such as 10-port Gigabit Managed Switch with PTP and PoE (8 ports) UL-0265, andPoE Injectors, such as ZyXEL® PoE-12 Power over Ethernet (a single-port PoE injector), can be used.

Built for Field and Lab UseThe modules and the detachable front plates are cast in magnesium for maximum stability, light weight, andtough field use.

Interchangeable Front PanelsThe modules allow front panels to be interchanged freely, with a variety of connectors for differenttransducers and applications. This results in fewer patch panels, less cable “spaghetti”, fewer cable adaptorsand faster system setup.

Independent ChannelsThe input channels on a module can be set up independently. You can set up the high-pass filters and inputgain separately and attach different types of transducer to different channels.

IEEE 1451.4 TransducersAll input modules support TEDS transducers. This allows automatic front-end and analyzer setup based onTEDS information stored in the transducer, for example, sensitivity, serial number, manufacturer andcalibration date. The individual frequency response of a transducer can be corrected for using PULSE’sTransducer Response Equalisation, REq-X, to achieve higher accuracy over extended frequency ranges.

OverloadConstant Current Line Drive (CCLD) conditioning monitors the supply voltage used by CCLD-compatibletransducers. Available CCLD transducers include:• Accelerometers• Charge amplifiers• Microphone preamplifiers• Tacho probes

If conditioning errors, such as a broken cable, are detected, an error is indicated as an overload on thespecific channel connector (using a ring-LED around the connector) and in the PC software.

Overload indications for input channels include (see Specifications for details): • Signal overload with adjustable detection level • CCLD overload: detection of cable break, short-circuit or CCLD transducer working point fault • Microphone preamplifier overload: detection of microphone preamplifier current consumption too high or

too low• Common mode voltage overload – relevant when input coupling is floating

Ground-loop Noise SuppressionThe module’s floating/grounded, differential input design and the fact that all external connections (LAN,power supply) are galvanically isolated in the module provide optimal ground-loop noise suppression.

PoE requires screened shielded twisted pair (S/STP or S/FTP) CAT6 LAN cables

PROTOCOLThe following standard protocols are used:• TCP• DHCP (incl. Auto-IP)• DNS (on top of UDP)• IEEE 1588–2002 (on top of UDP)• IP• Ethernet

ACQUISITION PERFORMANCEEach LAN-XI module generates data at almost 20 Mbit/s when measuring six channels at 51.2 kHz bandwidth. The modules are capable

of handling their own maximum traffic while the built-in switch in the frame’s backplane has more than sufficient capacity. This means that bottlenecks can only occur outside these, for example in:• External switches• PCFor convenience, it is possible to daisy-chain LAN-XI frames. However, it is not recommended to daisy-chain more than two frames. For larger configurations, a star configuration with a central switch is recommended. This must have a switch capacity well beyond N × 20 Mbit/s, where N is the total number of modules

PTP PERFORMANCEPTP Synchronisation (with 1 Gigabit LAN Switch): Typical sample synchronisation better that 200 ns (approx. ±0.07° @ 1 kHz, ±2° @ 25.6 kHz)Tested with:• Cisco® SG300-10MP, 10-port 10/100/1000 Managed Gigabit Switch

with Maximum PoE (8 ports)• Netgear® 5-port Gigabit Switch GS105Better performance can be expected with a dedicated PTP switch:• UL-0265: 10-port Gigabit Managed Switch with PTPv2 and PoE (8

ports).This is a dedicated PTP switch, preconfigured for optimal use with LAN-XI

PRODUCT DATAImpact Hammers — Types 8206, 8206-001, 8206-002 and 8206-003

USES• Impact-force measurements on small to medium

structures• Measurement of frequency response functions using

impact excitation techniques• As part of a dynamic structural testing system for

modal analysis and the prediction of structural response

FEATURES• Four types with sensitivity from 1 to 22 mV/N• Ergonomic handle• Negligible changes to dynamic properties of test

structure• Three replaceable tips• Acceleration compensated

DescriptionThis series of Impact Hammers has been designed toexcite and measure impact forces on small to mediumstructures such as engine blocks, car frames and automo-tive components. An accelerometer (or laser velocitytransducer) is used to measure the response of the struc-ture. By using a multichannel FFT analyzer, such as thePULSE™ system, the frequency response function andmode shapes of the test structure can then be derived.Contrary to using an electrodynamic exciter, an impacthammer does not apply additional mass loading to the testobject and it provides a very portable solution for excita-tion.

CharacteristicsThe Type 8206 series feature built-in electronics and theoutput sensitivity is expressed in terms of voltage per unitforce (mV/N or mV/lbf). The hammers also have built-inacceleration compensation that removes unwanted noisefrom the resonance of the hammer from the output signal.This results in a clean, smooth output signal representingthe excitation in both amplitude and phase.

The impact hammer is supplied with three interchangeableimpact tips of aluminium, plastic and rubber. The choiceof impact tip determines the impulse shape (amplitudeand duration) and the bandwidth of the excitation.

For increased head mass, a 40 gram head extender is avail-able.

The handle has been ergonomically designed for optimalcontrol of impact, thus reducing the risk of “double hits”.

CalibrationThe transducer is supplied with an individual calibrationof the sensitivity.

Description

Accelerometer Types 4507 and 4508 are specifically designed to withstand rough environments. Acombination of high sensitivity, low mass and small physical dimensions makes them ideal for modalmeasurements such as automotive body and power-train ones as well as for modal analysis on aircraft,trains and satellites. The main difference between the Types 4507 and 4508 is the position of the coaxialconnector, which is on the top surface perpendicular to the main axis for Type 4508 (top-mounted connector)and on the side surface parallel to the main axis for Type 4507 (side-mounted connector).

Design

Fig. 1 Exploded view of Miniature CCLD Accelerometer Type 4508 (top mounted connector) showing the ThetaShear design and built-in CCLD preamplifier

The 1032 UNF connector (1) is an integrated part of the top piece (2),which also contains the preamplifier (3) (not Type 4507-C or 4508-C).The slotted cylindrical stanchion holds a central seismic mass (4)flanked by two piezoelectric plates (5). This assembly is clampedrigidly by a ring (6). The parts are firmly held together without the use ofany bonding agent other than friction, a principle which has provedextremely reliable in Brüel & Kjær DeltaShear accelerometers. Thisassembly is hermetically welded to the titanium housing (7).

Mounting

Special effort has been put into making the mounting process as flexible as possible. The accelerometerhousing has slots that allow the use of mounting clips so that the accelerometers can be easily fitted to anumber of different test objects, or removed, for calibration. UA-1407, UA-1475 and UA-1478 are sets whicheach contain 100 plastic mounting clips. UA-1564 is a set of 5 high-temperature mounting clips.

Environmental Sensitivity

Some of the most troublesome environmental factors encountered when using piezoelectric accelerometersare temperature transients. By careful choice of materials, mechanical design and the shear concept,however, the influence of these factors has been reduced to a minimum. Special effort has also been madeto minimise interference from RF (Radio Frequency) electromagnetic fields.

High humidity is another environmental factor that can influence the accuracy of piezoelectric transducers.Careful design and manufacturing have reduced this effect to a minimum for the Type 4507 and 4508families. Furthermore, all CCLD members of the families (see Specifications) are equipped with hermeticallysealed (glass) connectors, that make them completely independent of humidity and aggressive gases.

Calibration

Fig. 11 Calibration Clip DV-0459

Each accelerometer is individually calibrated and supplied with acomprehensive calibration chart. Long-term stability and reliability areensured by artificial ageing during the production process.

Field checking and system calibration are straightforward usingBrüel & Kjær’s Hand-held Vibration Calibrator Type 4294.

For calibration of Types 4507/4508, Calibration Clip DV-0459 is available(Fig. 11).

CCLD Accelerometers

CCLD is a generic name identifying accelerometers and signal-conditioning products that operate on aconstant-current power supply and give output signals in the form of voltage modulation on the power supplyline. One of the advantages of this system is that it allows you to use inexpensive cables.

Accelerometers Types 4507 and 4508 can be used with all vibration setups with CCLD input modules.

The built-in, low-noise preamplifiers are made using thick film technology. They comprise ASICs including aspecial reference voltage that ensures very stable bias voltage over the entire operating temperature range.

Specifications: Weight: 0.8 gram (0.028 oz)Upper limiting frequency, 10% (mounted with grease):

The low-output impedance allows long cables connection of between the accelerometer and measurementequipment.

Charge Accelerometers

Accelerometer Types 4507-C and 4508-C can be used in high-temperature applications up to 250C(482F), and the use of an external conditioning amplifier allows variable amplification foroptimum signal-to-noise ratio. Brüel & Kjær has a wide range of equipment to support piezoelectric chargeaccelerometers, and Types 4507 and 4508 can be connected to the following:

• LAN-XI Front Panel UA-2105-060 – usable with Type 2647• Charge to CCLD Converter Type 2647 (with TEDS) – which enables the accelerometers to be used with

CCLD power supplies• NEXUS™ Charge Conditioning Amplifier Type 2692 – suitable for conditioning the signal• Measuring Amplifier Type 2525 – suitable for conditioning the signal• Charge Amplifier Type 2635 – suitable for conditioning the signal

Cables and Connectors

In order to distinguish the individual accelerometers in a multichannel measurement setup, coloured cablemarkers (UA-1243) are available to fit cables which are 1.6 mm and 2 mm in diameter.

Types 4507 and 4508 require cables with 10 32 UNF connectors. For general, non-critical use, standardcables AO-0463 and AO-0531 are recommended (not for Type 4507-C or 4508-C) since they are veryflexible and economic.

For Types 4507-C and 4508-C, low-noise or super low-noise cables AO-0038, AO-0122, AO-0406 or AO-1382 are recommended (see Ordering Information for details).

Maximum Cable Length (CCLD only)The maximum output voltage of a CCLD accelerometer when driving long cables depends on the supplycurrent at which it is operating and on the capacitive load due to the connecting cable.

The maximum cable length in metres (for distortion 1%) is given by:

where:Is = supply current (mA)f = frequency (kHz)Vo = output voltage (Vpeak)Cm = cable capacitance (pF/m)

Characteristics

Frequency ResponseThe following frequency response information is included on each accelerometer’s accompanying calibrationchart. However, certain accelerometers have this information built in electronically (TEDS) as well.

The upper frequency limits given in the specifications are the frequencies where the deviation from thereference sensitivity is less than 10%. It is approximately 30% of the mounted resonance frequency. Thismakes the assumption that the accelerometer is correctly mounted on the test structure a poor mountingcan have a marked effect on the mounted resonance frequency.

The lower frequency limits and phase response are determined by the built-in preamplifiers. The lowerfrequency limits are given in the specifications for deviations from reference sensitivity of less than 10%.

Increased measurement accuracy can be achieved by dividing the actual measurement by the individualfrequency response.

Frequency response curves generated from the individual TEDS values are given on the calibration chart forthe major part of the frequency range. At low frequencies, the curves given are typical.

The calibration chart also includes the individual TEDS values that, together with a general formula, best fitthe measured frequency response. The expression can be used for frequency response compensation inthe specified frequency range.

The relative frequency response, including amplitude and phase, is given by:

where:Sign = Polarity b = Temperature CoefficientT = Temperature Tref = Reference Temperaturef = Frequency fhp = High-pass Cut-off Frequencyflp = Low-pass Cut-off Frequency fres = Resonance Frequencyfref = Reference Frequency Q = Quality Factora = Amplitude Slope/Decade

Combining this equation with the amplitude sensitivity Sref, fref and Tref gives you:

Implementation of this formula in either real-time data acquisition systems or in post-processing will supportan automatic update of amplitude and/or phase.

Triaxial Measurements

Types 4507-B-004, -B-005, -B-006 and 4507-C are equipped with three sets of mounting slots. These makeit possible to perform triaxial measurements by successively mounting the accelerometer in three directionsperpendicular to each other. This is easily done when the accelerometer is mounted in one of the mountingclips. However, it requires that the measurements take place on a non-variant system.

Applications

The features of Types 4507 and 4508 make them ideal for modal analysis on ground vehicles, aircraft andsatellites. These applications often involve large, composite structures that require multiple measurementpoints. Types 4507 and 4508 excel in such situations, providing ease of handling, reliability and fastcalibration. With a rugged construction, Types 4507 and 4508 can also be used in a wide range ofmeasurement environments. They also have low sensitivity to temperature transients, which isadvantageous when it comes to making measurements at low frequencies.

Piezoelectric Accelerometer

Miniature Triaxial DeltaTron® Accelerometers Types 4524, 4524-B and 4524-B-001

Type 4524 series consists of lightweight triaxialpiezoelectric OrthoShear® accelerometers, eachwith three independent outputs for simultaneousmeasurements in three mutually perpendiculardirections. Type 4524 series utilise a 4-pin connector.

The clip mounting facility combined with the ability tomount the transducer on five of its six surfaces makesmounting on structures very flexible and quick and thusideal for structural and modal analysis measurements.

The light compact construction is an improved designcovered by the OrthoShear patent.

Characteristics

Fig. 1 Exploded view of Type 4524

The piezoelectric accelerometer features a built-inpreamplifier. The sensitivity is expressed in terms ofvoltage per unit acceleration (mV/g).

The OrthoShear design used in Type 4524 (Fig. 1) isbuilt around a common seismic mass. This uni-massdesign results in a very compact triaxialaccelerometer where all the axes have the same pointof reference and ensures accurate and consistentmeasurements, even when the accelerometer isexposed to complex vibration patterns. The seismicmass is surrounded by a piezoelectric ring, which issurrounded by three individually suspended, curvedarms. Because of the suspension pins, differentsections are exposed to shear forces for different

directions of acceleration. By appropriate summation of the signals, the outputs for the X-, Y-and Z-axes are obtained.

Housing

VersionsTypes 4524-B and 4524-B-001 include a Transducer Electronic Data Sheet (TEDS) containingsensor- and application-specific information, including frequency response compensation.

Mounting

Special effort has been put into making mounting as flexible as possible. The accelerometerhousing has slots that allow the use of mounting clips. The accelerometers can be easily fittedto or removed from a number of different test objects.

In addition to adhesive mounting directly on the test specimen, there are four clip-mountingpossibilities: A high-temperature mounting clip A thin, polycarbonate mounting clip for use on plane surfaces A mounting clip with a thick base can be modified, before use, to suit the mounting surface

on the test object A mounting clip with swivel base and a spirit level, which make it easy to align the

accelerometer in order to retain the coordinate system

Calibration

Fig. 7 Calibration Clip DV-0459 Specifications:Mounting-surface diameter: 21 mmMounting thread: 1032 UNFBase Material: Stainless steel (hardened)Spring Material: Stainless steel springWeight: 17 g

The transducers are individually calibrated and supplied with a comprehensive calibrationchart, using state-of-the art, random FFT technology, providing an 1600-point high-resolutioncalibration (magnitude and phase) ultimately giving a unique characterization and securing theintegrity of the vibration measurement.

The sensitivity given on the calibration chart has been measured at 159.2 Hz with a 95%confidence level, using a coverage factor k = 2.

Frequency Compensation REq-X

REq-X stands for Response Equalisation Extreme, which is a new technique that allows youto flatten the frequency response of a transducer in real-time. This flattening is done by filteringthe time signal of a transducer by the inverse of the frequency response.

The calibration chart also includes individual TEDS values that, together with a generalformula, best fit the measured frequency response. The expression can be used for frequencyresponse compensation in the specified frequency range. The relative frequency response,including amplitude and phase is:

3

Combining this equation with the amplitude sensitivity Sref and fref and Tref we have:

Implementation of this formula in either real-time data acquisition systems, such as the PULSEAnalyzer, or in post-processing will extend the usable frequency range, improve accuracy orallow a combination of the two.

Force Transducer

DeltaTron® Force Transducers Types 8230, 8230-001, 8230-002 and 8230-003

USES Measurements of tensile and compressive forces For modal or process applications

FEATURES Easily mounted Includes impact cap Low-impedance output Rigid construction with high stiffness

DescriptionTypes 8230, 8230-001, 8230-002 and 8230-003 are forcetransducers with integral electronics designed for dynam-ic, short-duration static and impact force measurements.The transducers are typically used for measuring appliedforces in modal applications, for example, inserted direct-ly between an exciter and the test structure or for general-purpose force measurements within process applications.

The transducers are mounted using the ¼″28 UNFtapped holes on the top and bottom of the body. Thetransducers feature a 1032 UNF side connector.

CharacteristicsThe transducers work on the piezoelectric effect of quartz,which when stressed, in this case compressed, gives anelectrical charge proportional to the compressing force.This charge is converted to a low-impedance voltage out-put and the sensitivity is therefore expressed in terms ofvoltage per unit force (mV/N). The housing material isstainless steel giving a very stiff and rigid construction.

CalibrationThe transducers are supplied with an individual calibrationof the sensitivity.

VersionsType 8230 has a sensitivity of 110 mV/N (500 mV/lbf).Type 8230-001 has a sensitivity of 22 mV/N (100 mV/lbf).Type 8230-002 has a sensitivity of 2.2 mV/N (10 mV/lbf).Type 8230-003 has a sensitivity of 0.2 mV/N (1 mV/lbf).

Transducer and Hardware Setup

Prerequisite SoftwareTo measure in BK Connect, you must have a BK Connect Hardware Setup Type 8401 licence installed inorder to connect to and set up your LAN‐XI data acquisition hardware.

With the Hardware Setup licence, you get the following tools and setup tasks:• Hardware Browser• Monitor• Transducer Manager• Transducer Verification• Accelerometer Mounting Check (with Type 8401‐A)

Data Acquisition SetupThe Hardware Browser displays your data acquisition hardware, graphically using the Hardware Matrixand as a list using the Hardware (HW) Setup Table.

The Hardware Matrix is an interactive graphical representation of the physical hardware that functions bothas a channel selector, for choosing channels of interest, and as a status indicator for the measurement system.It can provide useful information for troubleshooting error states such as overloads and cable breaks. The LEDrings on the physical LAN‐XI front end are reproduced in the Hardware Matrix to provide insight into thephysical state of the system. Transient overloads are latched to enable the root cause to be investigated.

The Transducer Manager comes with an established database of Brüel & Kjær transducer types. You caneasily create new transducer types and new devices of specific types, and add them to the database,making it simple to register your equipment for later use. Triaxial accelerometers are explicitly recognizedas a transducer type so that sensitivity data for the three axes is kept together in one device. Images ofeach transducer type make identification and selection much easier. A calibration history is stored witheach transducer making it easy for you to check when the next calibration is due.

When TEDS transducers are present, they are automatically detected. The HW Setup Table automaticallyupdates the hardware list with the TEDS information and the Hardware Matrix indicates, per channel,each transducer with a type‐specific symbol. Non‐TEDS transducers are not auto‐detected, but can easilybe assigned to individual channels by dragging and dropping them from the Transducer Manager to theHardware Matrix. This can be done one‐by‐one or collectively for a group of channels. If desired, you caninstrument a system of 1000 channels or more in one go using transducers of nominal sensitivity.

Simplifying Large System SetupWe know that setting up large systems can be cumbersome, so we have enabled both single or multiplechannel selection in the Hardware Matrix for setup, management and editing. You can even select one ormore front‐end modules. Channels can be displayed in an abstract, non‐physical view, sorted according tochannel state, transducer type, or error state. This enables, for example, grouping of overloaded channelsfor easy troubleshooting.

You can store HW Setup tables and reload them later to restore a known setup. The default file format isXML, but import and copy/paste from Microsoft® Excel® is also supported as well as Universal Datasetnumber 1808 (Channel Table), enabling offline setup outside BK Connect if desired.

Smart Setup of Transducers via AppBK Connect interfaces to Brüel & Kjær's Transducer Smart Setup app, making transducer setup as simple,safe and automated as possible. Using the camera on your iOS 8.0 device (or later), you can scan anyBrüel & Kjær transducer with a laser‐engraved data matrix code for quick and easy reading of transducerdata and orientation. If needed, the data matrix code can also give you instant access to specifications,documentation and calibration data. With the transducer information, you can start building a transducersetup project that can be seamlessly exported to the HW Setup table using a cloud service, an emailaccount or iTunes® (via wired transfer).

Fig. 1 Using the Transducer Smart Setup app to scan the data matrix code on the transducer and the label next to the transducer ensures fast and correct DOF information for the measurement

The app can also scan non‐Brüel & Kjær 2D matrix codes. This allows you to attach your own customizedlabels with transducer position (Component ID) and node ID that the app will read and add to a setup project.

If you do not have a transducer with a Brüel & Kjær data matrix code, you can still use the app to build atransducer setup project and transfer it to BK Connect. You can either select the transducer from a list ortype in the transducer data. You get the transducer orientation by aligning the drawing of the transducerin the app with the camera’s view.

Verification of TransducersThe Transducer Verification task can be used, together with a hand‐held calibrator, for checking theoperation of transducers and, optionally, to apply gain adjustment factors for transducers that deviatefrom their last calibrated sensitivities. More than one calibrator can be used at a time. The softwareautomatically detects the calibration signals and shows the result using a simple green‐yellow‐red colourcoding to indicate pass, in progress, or fail. The colours are latched in the HW Setup Table and theHardware Matrix to provide an overview of verification/calibration status.

BK Connect Structural Measurements – Hammer and Shaker Type 8411

Type 8411 adds the following tasks:• DOF Setup• Hammer Setup• Hammer Measurements• Shaker Setup• Shaker Measurements

These tasks are dedicated measurements of FRFs and related functions using either hammer or shakerexcitation. The setup and measurements can be performed either in BK Connect Modal Analysis or inBK Connect Data Processing.

Geometry‐guided MeasurementsHammer and shaker measurements can be performed based on:• DOF entries in the HW Setup Table and Auto Increment features in the measurement tasks• A DOF Sequence table created in the DOF Setup task

When a DOF sequence is defined, geometry‐guided measurements can be performed with indication onthe geometry which DOFs should be included in the next measurement, which DOFs are currently beingmeasured, which are already measured, and so on. Geometry‐guided measurement is, in particular,beneficial when roving excitation and/or response DOFs are used, for example, due to the limited numberof available transducers.

The DOF Setup TaskThe DOF Setup task lets you create a measurement sequence for both hammer and shaker testing. Using ageometry as guidance is generally recommended, but not mandatory. When a geometry is used,transducers from the Transducer Table can be dragged and clicked onto the geometry’s nodes. If ageometry is not present, the DOFs can be defined manually.

You can work with the transducers shown in the HW Setup Table, transducers you have defined asfavourites in the Transducer Manager or generic descriptions that are later mapped to the specifictransducers used.

The DOF sequence can be generated based on:• The chronological order the DOFs have been defined• Increasing node number• The path through the closest nodes (requires use of geometry)• Manual selection of DOFs

Fig. 3 DOF Setup:Creation of a measurement sequence is flexible and easily performed in the DOF Setup task

Structural Measurements Using an Impact HammerSingle impact as well as random impact testing is supported. With single impact testing, the structure is hitonce in a given DOF per FFT time record. With random impact testing, the structure is hit randomly in timemultiple times for a given DOF per FFT time record. Random impact testing allows for injecting moreenergy into the structure per time record. This is useful for large structures (long time records) giving abetter signal‐to‐noise ratio.

The Hammer Setup task helps you to set up hammer triggering and response weighting windows for optimalmeasurements, when doing single impact testing. For random impact testing, predefined values are used.

The trigger setup is performed by recording a series of typical hammer impacts and with them,interactively setting the signal trigger parameters using special cursors (Fig. 4) for best possibleconditioning of the trigger signal.

Response weighting windows help minimize noise and improve the accuracy of the measurement.Dedicated data displays enable you to fine‐tune the windows for both the force and the response bytyping in the parameters or using graphical grippers (Fig. 5).

Fig. 4 Hammer Setup: The trigger level and hysteresis are set up using a series of trial impacts (upper graph) and the effects of varying trigger settings, like pre‐delay, are observed interactively (lower graphs). The Auto Adjust functionality automatically sets the trigger level and hysteresis

Fig. 5 Hammer Setup: Time weighting can be set up interactively. Raw input force and acceleration response (upper graphs) are compared with weighted data (lower graphs)

5

Once the trigger parameters and weighting windows are set up, there is a pretest mode for verifying thatthe overall measurement setup is correct. You can store these measurements if desired.

The Hammer Measurements task inherits the settings from the Hammer Setup task and lets you makerepeated measurements. It includes a feature for undoing the last average, which can be very helpful whenmeasurement conditions are difficult. Using the Impact Validation monitor, you can easily detect potentialdouble hits, soft hits and unacceptable force level roll‐offs, so any unwanted measurements can be avoided.Voice feedback during setup and measurement is also supported with audible alerts such as “ready”,“triggered”, “double‐hit” and “overload”, that you keep you aware of measurement events even if you cannotsee the screen.

Fig. 6 Hammer Measurement task showing Coherence, FRF and the time signal of the response accelerometer

Structural Measurements Using One or More ShakersThe Shaker Setup task lets you prepare for shaker measurements by setting up one or more generators forfixed sine, continuous random, burst random, periodic random, pseudo‐random or periodic chirp excitation.For random excitation, the signals are automatically uncorrelated with one another. Key parameters for thegenerator signals are set using interactive graphical tools for easy adjustment and visualization.

Once the generator and analysis parameters are set up, there is a pretest mode for verifying that theoverall measurement setup is correct. You can store these measurements if desired.

The Shaker Measurements task inherits the settings from the Shaker Setup task and lets you makerepeated measurements. The generators are automatically ramped up before averaging starts andautomatically ramped down on completion of the last average. This minimizes exposure of the test item tounwanted excitation input.

BK Connect Advanced Sine Measurements Type 8412

Type 8412 adds the following tasks:• DOF Setup• Stepped Sine Setup• Stepped Sine Measurements

These tasks are dedicated measurements of FRFs and related functions using stepped sine excitation.Geometry‐guided measurements can be performed as seen with Hammer and Shaker Type 8411measurements. The setup and measurements can be performed either in BK Connect Modal Analysis or inBK Connect Data Processing.

Stepped Sine MeasurementsStepped sine measurement is a technique where sine excitation and corresponding measurements aremade at predefined fixed frequencies (step frequencies). After the measurement at each step frequency,the frequency is swept to the next step frequency. The step type, the step frequency interval and the stepdirection(s) are user‐defined.

Advantages of stepped sine testing includes:• High signal‐to‐noise ratio• Low crest factor of the excitation signal• Possibility to control excitation and response amplitude• Concentration of energy allowing smaller shakers to be used compared to broadband testing

Applications of stepped sine measurements include:• Leakage‐free FRF measurements as input to very accurate modal analysis• Resonance surveys• Forced response ODS analysis• Control and study of non‐linearities

Performing Stepped Sine MeasurementsWith Type 8412, stepped sine measurements can be performed with single‐shaker excitation (SIMO) andmulti‐shaker excitation (MIMO). For multi‐shaker excitation, the calculation of the MIMO FRFs requires morestepped sine sweeps, where the phases between the excitation forces are changed for each sweep.

Type 8412 can be set up to perform a classical full MIMO sweep series with N shakers consisting of 2(N‐1)independent sweeps, where the excitation phases are either in‐phase or out‐of‐phase. In addition, a moretime efficient optimal MIMO sweep series of only N sweeps can be performed using a more efficientphase distribution scheme.

Type 8412 supports software closed‐loop control. Each generator, with corresponding shaker, can be setup to attempt control of the amplitude and/or the phase of a selected control signal. The control signalcan be a force signal or a response signal. A target RMS and/or phase with corresponding tolerance isspecified. The phase to be controlled is the relative phase between the control signal and a selectedreference force signal. This allows for measurements where an excitation force or a response signal iscontrolled and attempted to be kept constant at a target RMS and/or phase at all frequencies during thestepped sine sweep (or sweeps in cases of multiple shakers).

In order to protect the test item and avoid high response levels during the measurements, alarm and abortlevels for each signal can be specified in the HW Setup table. The levels are taken directly from your LAN‐XIfront‐end hardware to avoid any software delays.

If alarm levels are exceeded, a warning is given in the Level Meter and, if an abort level is exceeded, themeasurement will stop and the generators will shut down.

BK Connect Geometry Type 8410

BK Connect measurement applications also provide you with the tools to quality‐check your measurementresults. With the Measurement Validation task (Fig. 7) you can animate the measured FRFs to validate the setupand troubleshoot errors in DOF assignment or transducer sensitivity. Often an error is immediately visible andyou can quickly correct it before performing the analysis. You can also select on the geometry the DOFs that youwant to use for the functions to be displayed. Data can be sorted and filtered to easily select individual functions.

Fig. 7 Measurement Validation: Animation of the amplitude and phase of measured FRFs at a cursor‐selected frequency

To perform the Measurement Validation task, you must have the BK Connect Geometry Type 8410 module.

With BK Connect Geometry, you can also create a geometry from scratch, import the geometry or extractthe test geometry by decimating an imported finite element model (UFF, Nastran, Ansys or Abaqus finiteelement model formats supported)*.

* Nastran (MSC, NX and NEi), Ansys and Abaqus finite element model import is supported with BK Connect FE Interface Types 8400‐D, ‐E and ‐F, respectively.

Introduction

BK Connect is the latest addition to Brüel & Kjær’s platform of software products. It provides real‐timemeasurements, analysis and test‐FEA integration in a modern, intuitive GUI environment and is theculmination of extensive customer surveys to resolve their most important issues when analysing soundand vibration data.

BK Connect provides:• Enhanced usability for high productivity with an intuitive user interface that puts the tools you need at your

fingertips. The graphical user interface is built around a workflow model that leads you easily through anytest setup, measurement and analysis process

• Open data policy that supports a wide range of native and third party formats for improved import andexport of data

• Consistent user interface throughout all applications encouraging faster learning of new applications

BK Connect Structural Dynamics allows you to observe, analyse and document the dynamic behaviour ofstructures using a single software platform covering setup, measurements, analysis and test‐FEAintegration. With BK Connect Structural Measurements, you can set up and perform single or poly‐reference hammer and shaker measurements, whereas BK Connect Modal Analysis provides accurate andreliable results even in the most demanding situations using a targeted set of best‐in‐class mode indicatorfunctions, curve‐fitters and analysis validation tools.

BK Connect Correlation Analysis adds the capability of correlating two modal models, for example, finiteelement model versus test model using tools such as Geometry Alignment, CrossMAC and Cross‐orthogonality calculations.

The open data policy behind the BK Connect Structural Dynamics suite also allows the post‐processingapplications to be used as stand‐alone applications together with your existing measurement and analysis system.

Measurement and Integration

BK Connect Structural Measurements – Hammer and Shaker Type 8411Type 8411 contains tasks for setup and measurement to perform hammer and shaker testing. And withthe addition of BK Connect Advanced Sine Measurements Type 8412, tasks for setup and measurementare available for stepped sine testing. The tasks are fully embedded into BK Connect Modal Analysis –creating a single application for modal setup, measurement and analysis. Measurement setup, executionand validation can be performed manually, table‐based or geometry‐guided.

Geometry Creation, Import and Decimation

With BK Connect Modal Analysis, geometries can be created from scratch using the embedded drawingtools. You can work with various elements like points, lines, triangular or quad surfaces and you can create2D and 3D CAD models and mesh them. The geometry can also be created from table entries.

Fig. 1 Geometry Editor.Geometries can be created using basic drawing elements, meshed CAD models or in tabular form

Alternatively, import a geometry in standard data formats like UFF and CSV. Measurement DOFs contained inthe imported measurement files are automatically added to and shown on the geometry in subsequent tasks.

Finite element (FE) models can be imported and used in BK Connect Modal Analysis for test planning and validation.• Animate FE models to investigate frequency range of interest, mode density/order, critical modes, etc.• Based on the animations, select optimal excitation and response locations for modal testing• Select test node locations on an FE model until a satisfactory finite element AutoMAC is created• Decimate FE models to test models for modal testing• Compare test results with FEA results

Fig. 2 Geometry Node Selection.By selecting nodes on a FE model, you can investigate how the AutoMAC builds up for the reduced geometry consisting of the selected nodes (highlighted)

Selecting nodes on a FE model helps determine which nodes on the FE model to include in a test geometry toidentify and separate the modes of interest. The geometry with highlighted nodes is automatically loaded intothe Geometry Decimation task for connecting the selected nodes with tracelines and/or elements.

Analysis and Reporting

By logically grouping features and display of results, BK Connect Modal Analysis allows you to do acomplete modal analysis in just four main steps: • Measurement Validation• Parameter Estimation Setup• Mode Selection• Analysis Validation

In addition, a User‐defined Displays task is available, and extensive live reporting can be done inMicrosoft® Word, Excel® or PowerPoint® at any time in the analysis using integrated reporting functions.

Measurement ValidationThe Measurement Validation task is used to check the quality of the measurement data prior toperforming the modal parameter extraction. Functions like ordinary and multiple coherence, reciprocityand driving point FRFs, or all FRFs from selected references can easily be shown by simply dragging thefunctions from the Project Browser.

The Geometry‐driven Function Display provides a graphical tool that allows you to select on the geometrythe DOFs that are to be used for the displayed function types. Data can also be sorted and filtered in atable to easily select individual functions to be displayed.

Fig. 3 Measurement Validation.In the Geometry‐driven Function Display, functions are selected by clicking on the desired excitation and response DOFs on the geometry. In this example, the FRFs are those related to the shaker at the front. You can easily scroll up and down to view all selected FRFs related to this shaker

For validation of test setups, such as identifying cable breaks and faulty and incorrectly mountedtransducers, animations can be done based on FRFs. For structures with lightly damped and well‐separated modes, the FRF shapes will resemble mode shapes.

Operating deflection shapes (ODS) from phase‐assigned spectra can also be shown and saved, forexample, to compare with mode shapes.

Parameter Estimation SetupThe Parameter Estimation Setup task is where you prepare and execute the curve‐fitting. FRF data toinclude in the analysis are easily filtered, sorted and then selected using the Data Matrix Selector table. Inthe same screen layout, the geometry with DOF information is shown together with a graph area forinvestigating potential modes using different mode indicator functions. Various SDOF and MDOF curve‐fitters can be selected and the frequency range of interest can be set, including the time range, whenusing time domain curve‐fitters. Both global and local solve curve‐fitters are available.

Previews of the stability diagram for the different curve‐fitters aid in the selection of the preferred curve‐fitterfor the task. To assist in this, powerful tools like cluster diagrams and pole density plots are also available.

The unique enhanced mode solution algorithm provides very clear stability diagrams, making it easy todiscriminate true physical modes from non‐physical modes.

Fig. 4 Parameter Estimation Setup. Prepare and preview curve‐fitting. This example shows the CMIF

The powerful set of mode indicator functions and curve‐fitters gives you the best possible tools in anygiven situation whether weakly excited modes, heavily damped modes, repeated roots or inconsistent FRFdata are present.

Mode SelectionIn the Mode Selection task, the modal results are shown in terms of natural frequency, damping ratio,mode shape animation and synthesis of FRFs. Once a mode is selected using one of the stability diagrams(with MDOF curve‐fitters) or FRFs (with SDOF curve‐fitters), it will immediately show up in the ModeTable, the mode will be animated and the synthesized FRFs will be compared to the measured ones.

Fig. 5 Mode Selection.Modes selected are shown in the mode table, animated, and the FRFs synthesized. In this example, automated mode selection was applied. The enhanced mode solution algorithm provides clear stability diagrams

Automated mode selection is supported for fast preliminary investigations of unknown structures or whenconducting repetitive testing. It also eliminates the potential risk of user‐dependent results. Automatedmode selection works for all MDOF curve‐fitters by indicating the modes in the stability diagrams,populating the Mode Table, animating the first mode and showing the synthesis functions.

The Mode Selection task provides full flexibility for selection and comparison of modes from differentcurve‐fitting methods for creation of the best possible modal model.

5

Analysis ValidationThe Analysis Validation task supplies you with a number of tools for further investigation of the obtainedmodal results for maximum confidence in your obtained modal model. This includes FRF Synthesis, ModeShape Animation, AutoMAC and CrossMAC tables and 3D plots, CoMAC geometry plots and Complexityplots. Modes can be normalized to non‐complex values (normal modes) for comparison with real‐valuedFE modes.

Fig. 7 Analysis Validation. CrossMAC comparing the mode shapes found using the Rational Fraction Polynomial‐Z and Polyreference Time curve‐fitters. The mode pair selected is automatically animated

The Analysis Validation task can also be used to animate FE models for test planning or validation.

ReportingThe Report task enables reports to be prepared in parallel with the analysis process, linking importantresults as they are produced. Store geometries, displays, tables and text in the Project Browser as reportelements and generate the report when you are ready. Reports can be based on standard embedded orcustomized templates you define, or on‐the‐spot. High‐quality, active or static reports are easily createddirectly in Microsoft® Word, Excel® or PowerPoint®.

User‐defined DisplaysThe User‐defined Displays task enables you to create customized layouts consisting of graphs, geometries(with or without animation), shape tables, MAC tables/plots and complexity plots. Data can be linkedbetween displays in the layout so that source data in one display is reflected in a result display. Forexample, when linking a mode table to a geometry, changes to the mode table will be automaticallyupdated in the geometry. This allows for fast and flexible data viewing and ad hoc analysis.

You can work with variouselements like points, lines, triangular and quad surfaces and you can create various 2D and 3D CAD modelsand mesh them. The geometry can also be created from table entries. Alternatively, test geometries canbe imported in standard data formats like UFF and CSV.

Finite element (FE) models can be imported as UFF files or from Nastran, Ansys and Abaqus. Import of FEmodels can include, apart from geometry data and modal data, also reduced mass matrices (Nastran orAbaqus). This allows for animation of the FE modes as well as correlation of Finite element analysis (FEA)results with test results.

Geometry DecimationImported FE geometries can be decimated to test geometries for use in, for example, BK Connect StructuralMeasurements or BK Connect Advanced Sine Measurements. The decimation can be done graphically byclicking on the nodes of the FE geometry to keep. Lines and optional surface elements like triangles or quadsconnecting the points, are automatically drawn on‐the‐fly.

You can also select nodes on a FE model and investigate how the AutoMAC builds up for the reducedgeometry consisting of the selected nodes. This helps determine which nodes on the FE model to includein a test geometry to identify and separate modes of interest.

Geometry AlignmentBefore two modal models can be correlated, their respective geometries must be aligned in space asregards orientation and scaling. This is obtained by selecting, graphically or using a table, three or morepairs of points to be aligned on the two geometries.

Fig. 2 Geometry Alignment.Alignment can be performed by selecting three or more point pairs on the two geometries

Analysis and Reporting

By logically grouping features and display of results, BK Connect Correlation Analysis allows you to do acomplete correlation analysis in just five main steps: • Geometry Alignment• DOF Mapping• Comparison• Vector Comparison• Mode Pairing

In addition, a User‐defined Displays task is available.

Extensive live reporting can be done at any time during the analysis process in Microsoft® Word, Excel® orPowerPoint® using integrated reporting functions.

DOF MappingThe nodes and directions of the two models are mapped based on the DOF information in the two modetables and the geometry alignment previously performed. The distance between the mapped pairs ofnodes and the relation between directions on the two models are displayed in a table. Also the twomodels’ geometries and mode tables are shown.

Fig. 3 DOF Mapping.Nodes and directions of the two models are mapped

ComparisonThe Comparison task allows you to further investigate the two modal models. This includes mode shapeanimation, where the two models can be shown in various layouts including side‐by‐side, top‐bottom,overlaid or differenced.

Fig. 4 Comparison. Comparing 1st torsional mode from FEA and test

Vector ComparisonVector comparison can be done by calculating AutoMAC, CrossMAC, Auto‐orthogonality and Cross‐orthogonality tables and 3D plots in reduced test space. The Auto‐orthogonality and Cross‐orthogonalityresults are calculated using a reduced mass matrix. If a reduced mass matrix does not exist, the SEREPalgorithm can be used for orthogonality calculations. Expansion of test modal vectors to FE space can be doneusing the SEREP algorithm.

Mode PairingModes can be paired according to their degree of frequency correlation, mode shape correlation based onCrossMAC or Cross‐orthogonality calculations or manually.

ReportingThe Report task enables reports to be prepared in parallel with the analysis process, linking importantresults as they are produced. Store geometries, displays, tables and text in the Project Browser as reportelements so when you are ready, you only need to generate and save the report. Generated reports can bebased on standard embedded templates, customised templates you define, or on‐the‐spot.

High‐quality, active or static reports are easily created directly in Microsoft® Word, Excel® or PowerPoint®.

User‐defined DisplaysThe User‐defined Displays task enables you to create customized layouts consisting of graphs, geometries(with or without animation), shape tables, MAC tables/plots and complexity plots. Data can be linkedbetween displays in the layout so that source data in one display is reflected in a result display. Forexample linking a mode table to a geometry – changes to the mode table will be automatically updated inthe geometry. This allows for fast and flexible data viewing and ad hoc analysis.
