If the asset already has a stable operating history, you can set manual alerts directly on the charts in the Analytics tab. These alerts are triggered when a value exceeds the set threshold, helping identify potential failures before they become real problems. Below, see how to configure each alert type in each chart on the platform.
1. RMS Velocity Chart
This chart displays machine vibration in velocity. Data is collected on the Horizontal (X), Vertical (Y), and Axial (Z) axes.
Accessing the chart:
Go to the Analytics tab;
Select the desired asset;
Locate the RMS Velocity chart;
Click "Manual Alert."
1.1. Global Limit
Sets a single alert value for all three axes (X, Y, Z); useful for general vibration standards.
Select the Global tab in the alert window;
Enter the threshold value in mm/s;
Set the minimum time (how long the value must remain above the threshold to trigger the alert);
Click "Enable and Save."
1.2. By Axis Limit
Allows setting individual limits for Horizontal, Vertical, and Axial axes; ideal for machines with different vibration patterns per direction.
Select the By Axis tab;
Enter the threshold values for each axis (X, Y, Z);
Set the minimum time;
Click "Enable and Save."
1.3. ISO Limit (20816)
Uses automatic thresholds based on ISO 20816, no manual values needed.
Select the ISO tab;
Click "Enable";
Click "Save."
2. RMS Acceleration Chart
This chart displays vibration in acceleration and it is used to detect mechanical impacts and shocks.
Accessing the chart:
In the Analytics tab, scroll to the RMS Acceleration chart;
Click "Manual Alert."
2.1. Global Limit
One alert value for all axes.
Select the Global tab;
Enter the threshold value;
Set the minimum time;
Click "Enable and Save."
2.2. By Axis Limit
Separate limits for Horizontal, Vertical, and Axial.
Select the By Axis tab;
Enter alert values for each axis;
Set the minimum time;
Click "Activate and Save."
The Acceleration chart does not support ISO limits.
3. Temperature Chart
This chart shows the temperature evolution over time.
Accessing the chart:
In the Analytics tab, find the Temperature chart;
Click "Manual Alert."
3.1. Limit
Sets a fixed temperature value that triggers an alert when exceeded.
Enable Manual Limit;
Enter the maximum allowed temperature;
Click "Activate."
3.2. Max Variation
Detects sudden increases or drops over a specific time interval.
Enable Max Variation;
Define variation value and interval;
Indicate whether it's a positive, negative, or both variations;
Click "Save."
4. Hour Meter Chart
This chart shows the asset's runtime and downtime periods.
Important note: To activate this alert, the asset's operation window must be registered.
Accessing the chart:
In the Analytics tab, scroll to the Hour Meter chart;
Click "Operational Alerts."
4.1. Downtime Alert
Detects when the asset is stopped outside the scheduled operation window.
Enable Downtime Alert;
Set the time tolerance (e.g., 2h30);
Click "Save."
4.2. Uptime Alert
Detects when the asset is running outside the programmed schedule.
Enable Uptime Alert;
Click "Save."
5. Replicate Alert to Other Assets
After configuring any type of alert:
Click Replicate alerts to other assets in the configuration window;
Select the assets from the displayed asset tree;
Confirm.
6. Edit or Disable an Existing Alert
Click Manual Alert again on the corresponding chart;
Adjust the values or disable the alert;
Click "Save."
