Sensor automatic

 
1. Sensor automatic
 
The measurements for whole-body vibrations are carried out in three axes. The allocation of the axes plays an important role because they are weighted differently in some measurement modes. The coordinate system refers to humans and is constant. The triaxial sensor has its own coordinate system, which - depending on the sensor positioning - does not always correspond to the body's coordinate system.
 
If you activate the automatic assignment of axes, VM-SHIP correctly assigns the sensor axes to the body's coordinate system. It also shows the correct sensor positioning in graphical drawings. If you follow these graphical instructions you avoid positioning errors.

To work correctly, the sensor automatic requires assigned sensors. In the drop-down list, you can choose among all sensors from the sensor management.
