5.2.2 Setting up measuring point database

• In the OMNITREND Machinery Manager, set up the tree struc-

ture for the machine park to be monitored, including a measu-

ring point hierarchy.

• Select measuring point type ‘Online’.

Note

If a sensor is to measure both vibration and temperature, you must

set up two separate measuring points* for this sensor. To facilitate

the assignment of the measuring channels, we suggest that you in-

clude the type of measurement in the name of the measuring point

(see screenshot). For more information on how to create a measur-

ing point database, please refer to the OMNITREND online help.
