Synchronize a vibration control system with another controller to increase channel count or for independent verification of a sine test. Sine Data Reduction is a Sine software add-on.

Sine reduction (also called sine processing or sine data reduction) uses the COLA output of any VR controller to configure shaker control with a second instance of VibrationVIEW or a third-party product.
The main controller runs a sine sweep test, likely with user-defined tracking filters. The COLA signal tracks the drive frequency and instantly calculates the amplitude and phase at the frequency value. The VR I/O unit runs the same sine sweep using the COLA signal as the frequency reference, so the tracking filters are applied the same.
Accurate frequency tracking ensures the identification of resonant frequencies for product development and qualification.
The VibrationVIEW software displays the sine sweep results for independent verification of the test results. Generate reports with graphs such as:
Run sequences of fixed-frequency sinusoids of a specified acceleration, velocity, or displacement. Test duration options include the length of time, number of sine wave cycles, or number of sweeps.
Many test items in aerospace and other industries are of high value, and close monitoring during testing is crucial. Technicians can configure abort limits for all channels or individual ones.
Vibration force limiting prevents over-testing due to large base reaction forces or other responses at a structure’s fixed-base resonant frequencies.
In VibrationVIEW’s Sine test mode, you can apply a force limit to one or multiple axes during a sine sweep.
The VR10500 is Vibration Research’s high channel count control hardware for vibration and shock testing. Scalable to 512 channels and compatible with all electrodynamic and servo-hydraulic shakers. Features include up to 256kHz sample rate and 4 outputs for multi-shaker testing.
