Measure using Continuous sweep
Measuring units that can be used: XT50, XT60 and XT70
Automatic recording of measurement values during continuous sweeping of the shaft.
There is no limit on the number of points.
Preparations
Before you start measuring, make sure you have done the preparations you need.
- Mount the measuring units. "Continuous sweep" is available when you use XT60 measuring units.
- To calculate results, you need to enter at least the distance between the measuring units, go to Enter distances.
- Tap a target to connect measuring units. Go to Select measuring units.
- If needed, perform a rough alignment.
-
If needed, measure Softfoot. Go to Softfoot
Measure
It is possible to switch measuring method before you have registered a value. Filter is not available when you measure with Sweep.
- Tap
on the tab to select the method Continuous sweep.
- Adjust laser to the center of the targets. If needed, adjust the units on the rods, then use laser adjustments knobs.
- Tap
to start the measurement.
- Turn the shafts. Turn the shafts as much as possible for a more accurate result.
- Tap
to stop the measurement.
- Tap
to go to the Result view, or tap
to measure again.
The registered values are saved when you leave the Measure view. If you return to the Measure view, it is possible to do a new measurement.
- Tap to select detector.
- Yellow area is where points have been registered.
- Measurement direction. If you change direction during the measurement, the arrow turns red.
- Quality assessment.
- Tap

- Vertical values for angle A and B
- Horizontal values for angle A and B
Edge warning
When the laser beam is close to the edge, the edge is “lit up” as a warning. It is still possible to register values when the edge warning is active.
Zero inclinometer
If the machine is mounted on an inclined base plane, you can manually set the inclinometer to a new 12 o'clock position. The following measurements will then use the new inclinometer settings.
- Choose the measuring method you want to use.
- Turn the measuring units so that the rods are perpendicular to the base plane.
- Tap
and
.
- Confirm the desired position for the measuring units by tapping
. The inclinometer will now be set to zero.
Your inclinometer adjustment will be applied during the whole measurement session, but will be restored when you start a new measurement from the start menu.
