Product catalog summary
Overview: The A3800 is a compact, on-line vibration monitoring and diagnostic system designed to enhance machine reliability. It can be mounted directly on a DIN rail and supports various channel configurations (4, 8, 12, 16), determined by a license file. The system can function as a multichannel analyzer, controlled via Virtual Unit software.
Front Panel Indicators: The front panel includes several LEDs indicating the status of channels, groups, DSP board, control board, HDD operations, and power. Each LED color signifies different operational states, such as green for normal operation and red for errors.
Top Panel Connections: The top panel houses connectors for sensors, divided into groups A, B, C, and D, each supporting AC and DC channels and TACHO inputs. Input ranges for AC, DC, and TACHO are specified.
Bottom Panel Features: The bottom panel includes optional WiFi input, audio I/O, USB ports, Ethernet socket, HDMI port, and power socket for 12-24 V DC.
Sensor Connections: Detailed instructions are provided for connecting acceleration and temperature sensors, as well as Tacho triggers.
Power Supply: The unit operates on 12-24 V DC with a maximum power consumption of 10 W.
Network Configuration: Each unit has a unique serial number used for naming and IP address assignment. Instructions are provided for changing the IP address using a remote desktop connection.
Data Reading and Setup: The A3800 uses OPC protocol for data reading and requires DDS and Adash Server software for setup. Instructions for database creation and unit assignment in the OnLine Database are detailed.
Operational Controls: The document outlines how to start, stop, and manage data collection, including setting up measurement points and using the local menu for device management.

A3800 - Vibration Monitoring System The A3800 unit is the compact size on-line monitoring and diagnostic system. It is designed to increase machine reliability. The small size of the A3800 enables to mount it directly on the DIN rail. The optional number of channels (4, 8, 12, 16) is available on the A3800 unit. The same number of AC and DC channels are always available. The 4 tacho sensors can be used in 16 channel option. The number of channels is determined by the license file. When the user wants to increase the number of channels, then only the new license file is written to unit memory....
