The VSA-1212 Vibration Spectrum Analyzer is billed as the first PDA-based vibration analyzer to provide open, non-proprietary desktop PC software built on a foundation of Microsoft Excel.
The system includes the VSA-1212 module that attaches to select PDAs running Palm OS; new Spectrum handheld software that collects and stores vibration measurements while displaying in time waveforms and FFT spectra complete with alarm levels; and Reporting System software for PCs, which is based on Microsoft Excel. Vibration data from the PDA exports to the PC with a single press of a button and loads into the Reporting System workbook on the PC with two mouse clicks. The VSA-1212 module is designed to use standard ICP-type industrial accelerometers. The VSA-1212 supports these handhelds: Palm Tungsten T, T2, T3, C, Palm m-500 series, Garmin iQue 3200 and Garmin iQue 3600.
