Safety
General safety notesThe following notes must be carefully read and completely under-
stood before the device is put into service. During measurement on machines with rotating parts exposed,
ensure that no brackets, cables etc. can become caught in rotat-ing machine parts. Danger of injury!
The measurement device may only be operated if it is undam-aged, dry and clean.
Operation and maintenance are to be performed only by properlytrained personnel.
Repairs to the device may be carried out only by a PRFTECHNIK-authorized service technician. Only original spare parts and accessories may be used.
Only properly functioning, regularly-maintained electrical equip-ment may be used. Any defects such as broken plugs or loosesockets must be corrected immediately. Damaged cables must bereplaced by an authorized service technician.
Any alterations that affect device design or operating safety arenot permitted.
Environmental influences Portable radio-based devices can interfere with proper function-
ing of the device when operated nearby. In case of doubt, checkthe connecting cable between the device and its transducer.
Avoid exposing the device, its transducers and cables to environ-mental conditions that exceed the tolerances listed in the Techni-
cal Data sheets. Keep the protective caps on the connector sockets when they are
not in use to keep them clean.

Power supplyVIBXPERT is supplied with energy by a Lithium-Ion rechargeable bat-
tery. With the power on the battery icon on the display indicates theresidual charge of the battery.
Follow the safety notes enclosed with the charger.
Connect the VIBXPERT charger eitherto channel A or to channel B.
Description
Attention!
If the battery is almost empty, a message appears on the displayand the blue LED flashes. The battery can be charged either in thedevice or in the external charging station (option, VIB 5.324) usingthe VIBXPERT charger (VIB 5.320-INT).

Description
Generating a report
VIBXPERT can generate the following report types:
Screenshot: Contains the content of the current screen.Measurement report:Contains the measurement results and infor-
mation on the operator and measurement.Route/template report:Contains the results and, if applicable, the
exceeded thresholds of a route/template and general data on themeasurement tasks.
The reports can be printed directly to a USB-printer or to a PDF file.The PDF file can be stored on a USB pendrive. Using the VIBXPERTutility tool the PDF file can be copied to a PC and printed fromthere.
Details on configuring the measurement report in the device,selecting the PDF printer and transferring PDF files to a PCcan be found in the VIBXPERT operating manual (art. no.: LIT53.201.EN).
Measurement report in Excel format
With the VIBXPERT utility from version 1.4.2, all results can be ex-ported to Excel format. The results are documented as numericalvalue and shown graphically in a diagram.
