CSI XP32 Operating environment

0 - 95% R. Humidity
Maximum Ambient Temperature: 40C / 104F
CSI XP32 Power input and consumption
120 - 240 VAC, 50 - 60 Hz input

80 watts consumption
Note
A 500W UPS is recommended.
The CSI XP32 offers either 32 or 16 sensor channels. Connection is through the
BNC connectors on the front of the CSI XP32.
In addition, the CSI XP32 offers 16 tach channel connections (4 or which are designated for transient), 16 digital relay channel connections, and 1 Ethernet HUB
and 1 NIC.
The CSI XP32 can accept any sensor type with AC component 10Vpk-pk & DC
component < +/-24V, AC+DC not to exceed +/-24V. Constant current is available
for those sensors that require it.
Warning!
Make sure that the constant current source, that is, the power for
accelerometers is disabled when connecting to a protection system
with unbuffered BNC outputs.
Tachometers should provide 1/rev pulses of >0.5v pk-pk with tach pulse 2x noise.
Before turning on the CSI XP32

... connect the sensors, tachometers, and relays to the BNC panel before plugging
the CSI XP32 into a standard 120 - 240 VAC input.
1-6
Caution!
Whenever making connections to unbuffered sensor signals, ensure that physical contact with these signals will not perturb other monitoring or protection systems.
If connecting the laptop to the CSI XP32 for the first time, you will need to use the
crossover RS-232 serial connection cable for HyperTerminal in order to properly
program and initialize the CSI XP32.
To turn on (the first time)

... press the toggle switch to On. The host laptop\server must already be powered
up, configured with downloadable firmware, and connected to the CSI XP32.
HyperTerminal is used to monitor/modify CSI XP32 boot. HyperTerminal should
be pre-configured at 9600 N 8 1.
Monitoring communications
... between the CSI XP32 and the laptop is done by way of NIC port on the front of
the CSI XP32. This is an Ethernet connection and requires a crossover cable. Alternately, you can use the NIC port with an external HUB.
Once the CSI XP32 is running

... you can disconnect the laptop. With the laptop disconneted, the CSI XP32 runs
in dat recorder mode optimized for turbomachinery transient data. That is, waveform from up to 32 channels and 4 tachs is recorded continuously and simultaneously at 40 MB/hr per channel for up to 60 GB. Once the laptop is reconnected,
portions of this recorded data can be extracted for use with the AMS Machinery
Manager Diagnostic Plotting Transient Analysis Tools.
Field based processing of multiplexed predictive data will continue, but this type of
data is optimized for a laptop being connected. With the laptop disconnected, the
data is buffered in an 8 MB memory, and depends on settings as to how long it will
take for this buffer to fill. Data will not be recorded to the database in the laptop's
computer and once the storage capacity of the CSI XP32 is reached, it will automatically start recording over the oldest data.
CSI XP32 Operating environment
1-7
For example, each transient signal connection will store approximately 40 MB of

data per hour, and will transfer up to one hour of transient information to the
laptop when a predefined transient event occurs (i.e. machine trip). If the laptop is
not connected, loss of data or data overwrite may occur.
To turn off the CSI XP32

... turn the toggle switch to OFF on the front of the CSI XP32. After the CSI XP32
has powered down, remove the cables connected to the BNC panel. Disconnect
the external hard drive (if one is connected). Disconnect the laptop. Unplug the
CSI XP32. If the CSI XP32 has been removed from its case, using the grips on the
sides of the CSI XP32, lift it up, and then lower it back into the case.
Caution!
Whenever making connections to unbuffered sensor signals, ensure that physical contact with these signals will not perturb other monitoring or protection systems.
1-8
Connecting an external NAS hard drive

The NAS drive should be connected to the same port that is used to connect to the
hub that is between the CSI XP32 and the server. The NAS drive should be housed
in a location acceptable to the NAS drive manufacturer. The NAS drive should be
capable of continuous write at >20 MB / sec. 100base-T minimum. Power supplied
to the NAS drive should be supplied according the NAS drive requirements.
Storing data on the NAS hard drive

A 60 GB hard drive can store around 1400 channel hours of Transient data, based
on an average of 40 MB an hour of data, per transient channel. The CSI XP32 has
up to 32 transient channels.
If the 60 GB hard drive is storing data from 32 transient channels, then it can store
approximately 50 hours per channel of data before it begins to overwrite the oldest
measurements. If 16 channels are connected, about 100 hours can be stored.

Chapter 2
The CSI XP32 System
Introduction
The CSI XP32 portable transient monitoring includes:
Field wiring to installed sensors
Connection points (usually a buffered output panel) for cabling to CSI
XP32 monitoring unit
CSI XP32 monitoring unit
laptop*
CSI XP32 firmware (loaded on Online server, downloaded into CSI XP32
monitoring unit)
Machinery Health Manager online software
Online Database
Ethernet cable.
* A common misconception is the difference between a laptop and an online
server. Emerson Process Management requires CSI XP32 users to purchase a highpowered laptop, because the laptop needs to be capable of acting as a server. A configuration service is needed to modify the laptop so it will operate as an online
server. While the word laptop is used throughout this manual, it is a high-powered
laptop properly configured for use as a server.
2-1
The following diagram shows an overview of how the various hardware and software components of the system connect and work together.
Overview Diagram
This system is fairly complex when viewed as a whole, but becomes easier to understand when each component is regarded individually. In the following list of definitions, two terms are used: applications and services.
Applications are programs which are accessed from within the AMS Machinery
Manager tool set.
AMS Machinery Manager tool set
Services are programs that run in the background on the CSI XP32 laptop, permitting the Operating System and applications, to manage online measurements and
reporting. Services may be viewed by using the following sequence:
2-2
The CSI XP32 System
Step 1: Right click on My Computer and select Manage.
Step 2: In the left hand panel, expand the Services and Applications folder
Step 3: In the left hand panel, select the Services subfolder.
Services used in XP32 operation include: CSI_MhmRemote, CsiMtdbMgr, CsiNetAdmin, CsiO_server, and FTP Publishing. These services were initialized when the
laptop was configured as an online server. They automatically startup whenever the
laptop is powered up (note column Startup Type in previous figure. Therefore,
their status should always be Started.)
CSI XP32
This is the hardware portion of the monitoring system. It is a portable unit which is
connected to the server via Ethernet.
2-3
O_server
This service is the central process which handles all non-transient activity on the
online system. It is responsible for processing most requests from the client,
sending configuration information to and receiving data from the CSI XP32.
NetAdmin
This service is responsible for handling the user's access to the various programs
within the AMS Machinery Manager software.
MtDbMgr
This is the database server service which handles most of the reading and writing
operations performed on databases stored on the server. It also indexes and verifies
the integrity of databases. On the laptop, this is a service running under Computer
Management --> Services and Applications --> Services list.
MHMRemote
This service handles transient data generated by the CSI XP32 as well as the database access required by the Diagnostic Analysis program. On the laptop, this is a service running under Computer Management --> Services and Applications -->
Services list.
Online Configuration
Also referred to as O_config, this program allows the user to create new and modify
existing databases for use with the online system. System commissioning is also handled via O_config. On the laptop, this is an application inside the AMS Machinery
Manager Tools tab.
Online Watch
Also known as O_watch, this program provides the user with a graphic interface
that allows the viewing of data sent to the server by the CSI XP32, management of
transient acquisition and auto-extraction, adjustment of alarm levels and ondemand data acquisition. On the laptop, this is an application inside the AMS
Machinery Manager Tools tab.
Diagnostic Analysis
This application allows the user to request and save transient data, view live
streaming data and provides a variety of analysis functions necessary for analyzing
the data generated by the CSI XP32. On the laptop, this is an application inside the
AMS Machinery Manager Tools tab.
2-4
The CSI XP32 System
IIS FTP
Microsoft's IIS includes an FTP server which needs to be installed in order to allow
the CSI XP32 to load firmware from the server. On the laptop, this is a service running under Computer Management --> Services and Applications --> Services list.
Firmware
The firmware is a set of three files, which are loaded from the laptop during the
boot up of the CSI XP32. This allows most system updates to be installed on the
laptop like any other program update without the requirement of any special interaction with the CSI XP32 beyond rebooting it to allow it to load the new version.
The firmware files are stored in the directory C:\Inetpub\ftproot\bin.

Database Structure for prediction side processing

The structure of an online database is designed to mirror the real world structure
of the equipment being monitored. The following diagram shows the relationships
of the various elements of an online database.
Database Structure for prediction processing
Collection Criteria
AP Set - The analysis parameter set defines a particular way to collect spectral data.
The AP Set specifies the number of lines of resolution; any averaging modes and
windowing; whether to be order-based, what FMax to use, and what parameters are
to be collected.
AL Set - A collection of Alarm Limits. Each AL Set is associated with a specific AP
Set. There may be multiple AL Sets defined for any given AP Set to accommodate
changing monitoring conditions. The alarm limit definition determines when
alarms occur, data is stored and output relays are set.
Collection Predicate - A predicate is an expression that compares relay, vibration
and/or input relay states to determine when data is collected and transient autoarchives are extracted.
2-6
The CSI XP32 System
Logical Hierarchy
Area - A user-defined grouping of equipment. An Area often corresponds to a

building or section of a process line within a plant.
Equipment - A group of coupled devices that logically should be monitored
together. Most often a machine train made up of a driver component (such as a
motor) and one or more driven components (such as a pump or fan).
Component - A specific, single asset to be monitored, possibly with multiple sensors. Usually a driver or driven piece of machinery. Motors, engines, turbines,
pumps, fans, etc. are examples of components.
Measurement Point - Corresponds to a single physical sensor. Groups together all
the data from all the collections that have been defined for a particular sensor. Any
Gross Scan data collected on the sensor and reported for storage is logically associated with the Measurement Point in the database.
Data Collection Sets (DCS) - The DCS is a grouping item that allows multiple collections to occur on a single Measurement Point. The DCS combines a particular
predicate (when to collect) with a particular AP Set (what and how to collect) and
a specific AL Set (limit bands and set points.)
Physical Hierarchy
CSI XP32 - The physical monitoring unit.

Signal Channel - An AC vibration or DC process input
Tachometer Channel - A speed measurement input.
Digital I/O Channel - A discrete relay, input or output.
2-7
Field Wiring
In addition to predictive monitoring, the CSI XP32 is also a portable transient monitoring system, which means in most applications it is being connected to already
installed sensors, normally through existing patch panels or monitoring modules,
as shown below.
Installed Field Sensors and Wiring
Portable transient monitoring has two important application distinctions, when

compared to a fixed, permanently connected system. These are:
The portable application includes actions of connecting and disconnecting
cables between the CSI XP32 monitoring unit, and installed modules or
even junction boxes. It will be critical to ensure that these actions do not perturb signals, in such a manner that any permanently installed monitoring
systems, interpret temporary signal fluctuations as trip conditions. This is
not a concern when connecting to module buffered outputs.
Modules may condition the input signal, and present a modified version to
their own output connections (which are the input connections to the CSI
XP32). For instance, some modules connect to a proximity probe sensor,
which provides a DC output equivalent to gap voltage (usually about -10
Volts) and an AC voltage equivalent to vibration (millivolt signal). These
modules are configured or programmed to provide a version of the input
signal, at an output connection. The output signal could be a 0 to 10V version of the input.
2-8
The CSI XP32 System
An analyst must know the sensitivity and offset of signals connected to the CSI
XP32, which may be the same (or different) as signals connected to existing modules. An Analyst must also know if the CSI XP32 connections are to buffered or
unbuffered field wiring or module outputs.
Field Wiring
2-9
Operation: Overview
A later section of this manual describes the CSI XP32 operation in detail. However,
a quick description of the system is as follows:
Database is built for a monitoring application. Signal\sensor connections are
commissioned for normal data collection. Database includes sensor definitions, how often to store predictive measurements, and the configuration of transient.
Selected signal\sensor connections are commissioned for transient data
collection.
Note
A channel commissioned for transient signal collection (and
storage) is also commissioned for predictive signal collection (and
storage)
Configuration is downloaded into the CSI XP32 from the laptop

Waveform measurements from the transient channels are stored, continuously in the CSI XP32.
Waveform measurements from the predictive channels are constantly
measured and analyzed, sent to the display program (Online Watch), stored
in the database (.rbm file) on the laptop, as programmed
A transient event occurs, normally a speed change on a tachometer input
2-10
The CSI XP32 System
This sequence is shown in the following figures.
Commissioned System

2-12
The CSI XP32 System
Configuration: Network
A typical, complete CSI XP32 system is as shown in the following figure. Note the
IP addresses shown in the figure. IP addresses are unique addresses which systems
on a network use to communicate with each other. Three are shown:
laptop (192.168.0.1)
CSI XP32 Prediction Processor (192.168.0.10)
CSI XP32 Transient Processor (192.168.0.11).
The laptop has an Ethernet port, which is connected to the CSI XP32. The port has
an address. The CSI XP32 has two processing boards, both of which communicate
using the same physical Ethernet connection on the CSI XP32 front panel. These
boards have IP addresses, which are stored in non-volatile memory (memory that
doesnt get cleared when you turn the unit off). For a CSI XP32 system to communicate:
IP address of the laptop must match a value stored in non-volatile memory
in each CSI XP32 processing board
IP address of the CSI XP32 CPU board must match a value listed in AMS
Machinery Manager software, as belonging to the database in use.
Configuration: Network
2-13
Later sections of this manual describe how to read IP addresses, and even how to
change them. But the key point is that the CSI XP32 must know its server address,
and the laptop must know IP addresses of its CSI XP32s.
CSI XP32 system
2-14
The CSI XP32 System
Configuration: Memory
The CSI XP32 is a continuous online monitoring system. Once configured, and
until stopped, it will collect both predictive and transient measurements,
storing them in an AMS Machinery Manager database and archives respectively.
Configuration: memory
Once configured, the CSI XP32 continuously writes waveform measurements for
transient channels to the Hard Disk Drive (HDD). When the drive fills up, the
system will begin writing over the oldest measurements.
2-15
A rule of thumb to use for a 60 GByte HDD, when estimating how deep the HDD
is (in hours) is to divide 1450 by the number of channels commissioned for transient operation. For example, consider a 4-bearing boiler feed pump monitoring
system which has a total of 14 sensors. This could include 4-radial pairs (proximity
probes), 2 thrust, 1 case expansion, 1 eccentricity, two horizontal accelerometers.
The eight proximity probes are commissioned for transient and normal operation.
A 60 GByte HDD will hold the most recent 1450/8 hours of information for each
transient channel; or approximately 180 hours (7.5 days).
The CSI XP32 is both a continuous monitoring system, and a portable monitoring
system. It can be moved from one equipment to another, and measurements can
be stored in one database (for the first equipment) and then in another (for a
second equipment).
In the previous figure, an CSI XP32 is connected to a set of protection modules,
which are wired to sensors on a boiler feed pump. A database has been built, and is
receiving measurements from the CSI XP32 monitoring unit. Transient waveform
measurements are stored in a Hard Disk Drive (HDD), until a transient event
occurs.
However, this is also a portable system. The CSI XP32 and laptop may be disconnected from the Boiler Feed Pump monitoring rack, and moved to a rack of modules monitoring a turbine. This requires an intermediate step, between
disconnection from the feed pump rack, and connection to the turbine rack. Data
collection must be stopped into the feed pump database, the turbine database
must be loaded into the laptop, and the turbine database configuration must be
downloaded into the CSI XP32 monitoring unit. This prevents measurements
(predictive and transient) from the turbine, from being accidentally loaded into
the feed pump database.
In this same example, one more intermediate step may also need to be performed.
An archive of measurements is created by a trigger event on the feed pump. This
archive is automatically sent to the laptop. However, there are a lot of other measurements stored on the CSI XP32. In the example, about 180 hours of information per transient channel is on the CSI XP32 for the boiler feed pump
configuration. Machinery Health Manager software permits an analyst to view and
extract some / all of these measurements, storing them on the laptop. If an analyst
wishes to do this, he / she must remove the measurements from the CSI XP32,
before starting up the turbine database on the laptop and downloading it into the
CSI XP32.
2-16
The CSI XP32 System
Changing databases, and extracting transient data from the CSI XP32 is described
in the next chapter of this manual.
2-17
CSI XP32
The CSI XP32 monitoring unit consists of:
an AC-power connection (110V - 220V, 50/60 Hz)
an Ethernet connection
Signal connections for 1-32 sensors
Tachometer connections for 1-16 sensors
Digital I/O relay connections for 1-16 relays
an LCD status display, with navigation keys,
System power status LEDs
a 24V/0.6A DC output power connector
an attached and cabled cooling fan.
Power Input
The AC power connection has a North American 3-prong receptacle. The unit
may be powered with either 110V/60Hz or 220V/50Hz input power. No internal
switches need to be adjusted to select power type.
Ethernet ports on the CSI XP32
The top port is usually used for connecting directly to the server and to hubs. The
only difference is that without a hub, and Ethernet crossover cable is required.
Two Ethernet ports are provided, however only one may be used at a time.
The CSI XP32 front panel has BNC connections for up to 32 sensors or signals.
Note that there are two versions of the CSI XP32; a 16-channel and a 32-channel,
although both products include the same 32 BNC connectors.
2-18
The CSI XP32 System
The CSI XP32 is designed to receive voltage signals from sensors or external modules. The online database will include voltage-to-vibration conversion specifics, such
as sensitivity, DC and AC alarm levels, offsets (if any). But the system expects voltage
signals. Signals such as 4-20mA, RTDs, Thermocouples require external conditioning electronics (normally a programming or terminal option with installed
modules to which the CSI XP32 connects).
The 16 tachometer inputs on the CSI XP32 front panel also provides BNC connections for up to 16 tachometer signals. The transient tachometers must be at location
13, 14, 15, or 16 of the tachometer input BNCs. This same tachometer can be used
for both prediction and transient signal collection.
Note
Not all signals connected to an CSI XP32 need to be designated as
transient. Some signals do not carry unique transient information,
and an analyst does not wish to include high speed sample of these
signals in transient archives. These are referred to in this manual as
prediction signals. Others, such as radially mounted pairs of proximity probes, do carry significant transient information. These are
referred to in this manual as transient signals.
Optional 16 channel relay inputs/outputs

The CSI XP32 includes 16 Digital I/O relay connections. These are mapped to
transistor-type, digital, OPTO22 relay modules internal to the CSI XP32. The connections are compatible with voltages in the range of 4V to 28V DC. The CSI XP32
analyst must know the internal relay types which are mapped to each BNC connection, when building a database and connecting to external field wiring. It is likely
that temporary/portable transient monitoring systems will not include connections to external relays, however this feature is available. Typical relay usage in
online monitoring system includes:
(input) Transient event indicator, perhaps from a switch, DCS, external
module
(output) Bad / failed sensor indication
(output) Alarm level indication
(output) Speed level indication
CSI XP32
2-19
(output) Radial Trip Predicate state

(output) Axial Thrust Predicate state.
In most applications, the CSI XP32 will connect to buffered output protection systems. These modules normally have relay outputs which indicate alarm levels, or
bad / failed sensors. However, the CSI XP32 relays are different in that:
a CSI XP32 alarm relay state may be based upon either overall vibration
value (i.e. the attached module), or Analysis parameter signal level (i.e.
energy at 1 x turning speed, energy at 2 x turning speed)
all, some, or one of the alarm indicators may be mapped to the same CSI
XP32 alarm relay output. In other words, all of the Bad\Failed sensor
signal levels may be (internally) connected to a single relay. All of the High
alarm signal levels may be (internally) connected to a single relay.
Radial Trip and Axial Thrust predicates are special methods of configuring voting
logic for relay closures and is explained in Emerson Machinery Health Manager
manuals, such as the Online Software guide (P/N 97460). These are innovations
provided by the CSI XP32 system, which have value in turbomachinery applications.
LCD Display on Processor Module

The CSI XP32 LCD display is used to show status items including:
boot parameters; initial network addresses
Internal temperature
Results of POST tests (Power On Self Tests)
Gross Scan AC values.
LCD display
2-20
The CSI XP32 System
A set of navigation keys is used to navigate through LCD menus and sub-menus.
The display includes both text and ICON indicators of system status. The keys are
not used to enter configuration information into the CSI XP32.
Output Status LEDs
The CSI XP32 receives AC-power, and converts it to voltages used by internal electronics, and also provides an auxiliary 24V DC output. LEDs on the CSI XP32
power supply front panel show status of internal voltages. When the unit is both
connected to a power source and turned on, the vertical column of LEDs should
all be green. The top LED (FAIL) is not illuminated during normal operation. If
the system detects an internal power failure, this LED will be lit and RED.
The unit also provides 24V DC, 0.6A of output power. This may be used to power
external modules or even proximity probe drivers. Output current load should not
be exceeded, as this will eventually cause the supply to fail.
CSI XP32
2-21
Accelerometer sensors do not need a connection to this power output. The CSI
XP32 may be configured through the Online Config software to provide bias
voltage and current (+24V/4mA) to accelerometers using the channel BNC signal
connection. It may also be configured to receive the accelerometer signal only,
without providing bias voltage / current. This will be the configuration used when
connecting to modules which power accelerometers.
2-22
The CSI XP32 System
Online Server
A laptop is a computer which has been configured to include:
4 background services (See page 2 - 3.)
Modification to default operating system local security policies
CSI XP32 firmware (three files), loaded at a specific directory location
AMS Machinery Manager online and transient software modules
Network connection, with addresses expected by CSI XP32.
An analyst will normally interact with the laptop through AMS Machinery Manager
software interfaces. This is described in Emerson Machinery Health Manager manuals and training courses. Other laptop operations are described in this section,
and in Chapter 4 of this manual.
When a laptop is purchased from Emerson, it will have 4 background services
installed, configured, and initialized. System O/S policies will have been modified
to permit data movement and control required by AMS Machinery Manager software. Software and firmware will be loaded, the network connection will be initialized.
During the product life of a CSI XP32 system, an analyst will periodically need to
load new firmware
update AMS Machinery Manager software
change the network connection
Firmware is installed in directory C:\Inetpub\ftproot\bin. Each time an CSI XP32
powers up, it scans its network connection (looking for the laptop address which
matches an address stored in internal CSI XP32 memory), and then for firmware
at this directory location. If firmware is found, its version is read and compared to
a copy of firmware stored in internal CSI XP32 memory. If the firmware is the same
revision, then the CSI XP32 boots from its internal copy. If it has a different revision,
then the CSI XP32 downloads newer firmware, boots using it, and stores a copy of
this newer firmware in internal memory.
This means that when new firmware is loaded onto a laptop:
it must be loaded at directory C:\Inetpub\ftproot\bin\, and
Online Server
2-23
the CSI XP32 must be rebooted to cause it to detect and use the new firmware.
It is likely that an CSI XP32 server will be multi-purpose, and may be connected to
a customer internal LAN, even for non-online usages. If this occurs, the Ethernet
address assigned to the computer Ethernet port, will need to be changed. Therefore an analyst needs to know how to change an address, and return it to the
address expected by an CSI XP32.
Computer network port addresses are assigned using the Control Panel and
Network Connections facility. Changing addresses involves the following
sequence:
Step 1: Select Control Panel
Step 2: Select Network Connections
Step 3: Select the Ethernet port
Step 4: Select Properties
Step 5: Scroll down in the text window at the center of the Local Area
Connection Properties pop-up screen, and select Internet Protocol (TCP/
IP)
Step 6: Click the Properties button
Step 7: Change IP address

IP Address value
It is expected that the laptop will sometimes be connected to an existing plant /

mill LAN. Existing LANs normally assign, dynamically, addresses to devices on the
network. To permit this, click the Obtain an IP address automatically radio
button shown in the previous figure.
However when connecting the laptop to the CSI XP32, it needs to have the address
which the CSI XP32 expects, that is, it must match the server address stored in CSI
XP32 memory. For the previous example, the CSI XP32 expects its online server to
have an address of 192.168.0.1. To set this address in the laptop, perform the steps
described above, and select Use the following IP address button in the last step.
Then enter the IP address and appropriate subnet mask, as shown above.
2-26
The CSI XP32 System
There are several ways to determine what laptop address is stored inside the CSI
XP32. The simplest way is to power-up the CSI XP32, and use the LCD and keypad
to display the expected server address. This involves the following sequence:
Step 1: Start the CSI XP32. When it has completed its boot sequence, it will
show a menu titled DCMII-T.

Chapter 3
Operating the CSI XP32
Introduction
The heart of a CSI XP32 system is a database. Database construction is described in
other AMS Machinery Manager manuals, and is taught during an Emerson online
training course.
This section identifies steps and sequences of steps, which are particularly important during CSI XP32 operation. Three fundamental system characteristics need to
be understood, when using the CSI XP32 system.
The CSI XP32 is a network-based system. The CSI XP32 monitoring unit communicates with a server, through an Ethernet connection. Both must have addresses,
known to each other, for successful communication to take place. The addresses
can be changed, but the laptop must know address of its CSI XP32, and the CSI
XP32 must know the address of its laptop.
The CSI XP32 is a continuous monitoring system. It is always recording transient
information that remains in the CSI XP32 system and can be manually extracted,
or will be extracted based on a preconfigured transient event.
And the CSI XP32 is a portable monitoring system. It can be moved from one set
of signal connections to another.
3-1
Definitions, terms
Several terms will be used to describe CSI XP32 operation, some of which are
unique to the Emerson system. These include:
Archive:
A folder which includes several files (one per transient channel, one
per transient tachometer). There are two types of archives; manually
created, and automatically created. In both cases, the archive is a
folder which is collected from measurements on a CSI XP32 HDD,
and sent to the online server.
Archive predicate: A collection predicate used to trigger automatic creation of an

archive. Automatically created archives are automatically sent to the
online server, without any operator / analyst actions.
Bearing clearance: The difference in diameters, between the inner surface of a
bearing, and the outer surface of a shaft. This is the distance a shaft
may move, without rubbing against the bearing surface.
Extract:
To move transient measurements from one location to another. First

(starting) location may be the CSI XP32 HDD, or an archive (information from one archive may be extracted into a second, usually
smaller, archive).
HDD (Hard Disk Drive): The disk drive used to store transient waveforms. This is not
the same HDD as the one mounted inside the online server. HDD will
eventually overwrite the oldest measurements. CSI XP32 system may
be configured with two HDDs; a primary drive, and a failover drive. At
least one of these is external to the CSI XP32 monitoring unit.
Resting DC Voltage: Voltage measurement taken from a proximity probe, when a
shaft is at rest (against bearing surface). This corresponds to an initial
shaft position, and is used to create shaft centerline plots
Transient channel: A monitored input, which has been designated for both normal
and transient data collection. Measurements and operation are
simultaneous. Normal signal measurements are stored in a database
on the online server (.rbm file). Transient archives are stored in a
directory (archives) on the online server.
3-2
Verifying Network Addresses

Network addresses of both Ethernet connections should be verified. The LCD display and keypad may be used to show what addresses are stored in the CSI XP32.
This sequence was described in the previous chapter of this manual, and is listed
below:
Step 1: Turn on the CSI XP32 monitoring unit, wait until it completely boots
up
Step 2: Use the navigation buttons to scroll to System Status on the top
menu
Step 3: Press the Enter button (bent-down arrow button)
Step 4: Scroll down to Online BootParms, press the Enter button
Step 5: Scroll down in the Online BootParms submenu until the server
and CSI XP32 IP addresses are listed.
Online server
The network address of the online server may be verified by the following
sequence:
Step 1: Select Control Panel
Step 2: Select Network Connections
Step 3: Select the Ethernet port which is used to communicate with the CSI
XP32 monitoring unit
Step 4: Select Properties
Step 5: In the Properties screen, scroll down to Internet Protocol (TCP/
IP), and then click the Properties button
Verifying Network Addresses
3-3
Verifying or Editing IP addresses

The CSI XP32 database must know IP addresses of assigned monitoring units
(CSI XP32s). To verify or edit addresses assigned to an CSI XP32 database, perform
the following sequence of steps:
Step 1: Log into Machinery Health Manager software using an Administrator account.
Step 2: locate the Network Administration ICON, and click on it.
Step 3: In the Network Administration screen, select the Online Server

listed in the bottom center panel
Network Administration Screen
3-4
Step 4: If the system is configured to store data into a database, the database
will be listed, the two Edit buttons will be greyed-out, and the bottom left
button will be labeled Stop Data Collection. In the center panel, CSI XP32
addresses are listed. These are the units which are available for the online
server. The IP address of the CSI XP32 CPU board (read from the LCD display), should be listed in this panel.
Online Server Setup window
Step 5: Reboot your laptop.
3-5
Adding CSI XP32 addresses to the laptop

To change the IP address of the laptop, use the Control Panel > Network Connections > sequence described earlier. To add a CSI XP32 IP address to the online
server configuration, use the sequence described above, with the following additional steps:
Step 6: Click the Stop Data Collection button. The button label will
change to Start Data Collection, and while the system is stopped, online
server setup can be changed. Click the Edit button beside the Active
Units panel.
Step 7: in the Online Servers Active Unit List screen, type the IP address
of a (new) CSI XP32 in the New Unit field.
Step 8: Click the Add New button.
Step 9: Click the OK button.
Step 10: In the Online Server Setup window, click the Start Data Collection button.
Once a CSI XP32 IP address is listed in Network Administration, that address may
be used for any existing or future database built with the online server. This task
does not need to be performed each time a new database is built.
Online Server Active Units screen
3-6
Changing Network Addresses in the CSI XP32 via Hyperterm

To change IP addresses stored in the CSI XP32, a cross-over RS232 cable is connected between the laptop serial port and the CSI XP32 9-pin front connector. The
cable will need a male\plug connector on one end, and a female\receptacle connector on the other (CSI XP32) end.
CSI XP32 9-pin connection
Configure the online server serial port as follows:

9600 baud
8 data bits
1 stop bit
No parity
No flow control
Connect the serial cable to both the CSI XP32 9-pin connection, and the laptop.
Open operating system utility Hyperterm. This is usually selected from Programs -> Accessories -> Communications -> Hyperterm, as shown in the following
figure.
Hyperterm utility
3-7
When connected to a CSI XP32, an analyst will use five commands or key strokes to
interact with the boot settings stored in each processing board (CPU, Transient).
These are:
bootChange - (case sensitive). This will cause the boot parameters for the
specific circuit board to be listed, one at a time. To change a parameter, type
the new value beside the stored value.
Caution!
Do not attempt to backspace\delete the stored parameters.
Ctrl-B - (Hold down Ctrl key and press the B key). This will toggle from one
board to the other (if serial port is connected to CPU board, will toggle to
the Transient board)
Ctrl-T - will cause the board to display an identifier (tell you which board you
are communicating with)
reboot - (case sensitive, all lower case). This will cause the board to reboot,
using new boot settings
. - the period key. Type a period at the end of a stored value, to clear this
value.
Important rules when changing boot parameters.
Rule 1: No boot parameters take effect until the unit is rebooted.
Rule 2: Do not attempt to delete stored values. Type a new value beside the
stored value
Rule 3: Only change the IP address values. Do not change FTP password,
boot file name, flags, etc. If a unit boots up with incorrect values, the system
will probably not operate and in some cases, the unit may need to be
returned to Emerson.
Rule 4: In most cases, changes will need to be made to both processing
boards. Both the CPU and Transient boards will need to be updated. They
have separate boot parameters, changing one set does not change the other.
Rule 5: Review changes, before using the reboot command.
Rule 6: If network addresses are changed, update any drawings or documents which use the old addresses.
3-8
To change IP addresses stored in the CSI XP32, perform the following sequence:
Step 1: Write down the IP addresses which need to be changed. Normally
this will be either the online server address, or the CPU address.
Step 2: Connect to the CSI XP32, start a hyperterm session.
Step 3: Type the command bootChange (note this is case-sensitive; all lower
case letters except for the C in Change).
Step 4: Use the Enter key to advance down the list of parameters, until
inet on ethernet (e): 192.168.0.10 or other parameter to be changed is in
view.
Step 5: Type the new parameter value beside the old value.
Step 6: Use the Enter key to advance through the list of parameters.
Example CSI XP32 CPU board settings
Step 7: At the command prompt, type Ctrl-B (hold Ctrl key down, press
the B key) to toggle to the other circuit board.
Step 8: Use the Enter key to advance through the list of parameters on the
other circuit board, making changes as necessary.
Step 9: Press the Enter key until at the end of the parameter list.
3-9
Step 10: On the second board, type the command bootChange a second
time, press the Enter key to review settings.
Example Transient board boot settings
Step 11: Type Ctrl-B (hold Ctrl key down, press the B key) to switch to
the other (first) circuit board.
Step 12: Type bootChange a second time, review boot settings
When settings have been changed, type the command reboot to cause the CSI
XP32 to boot up using the new settings. Disconnect and store the serial cable.
When the CSI XP32 has rebooted, you can view IP addresses on the LCD display,
using the sequence described earlier.
3-10
Changing Network Addresses in the CSI XP32 via Telnet

There is a second way to change boot parameters which are stored in the CSI XP32.
To use this method, the CSI XP32 and online server must already be able to communicate. This method does not use a serial connection to the CSI XP32, rather it
uses an Ethernet connection between the server and CSI XP32. There are two
major differences between a telnet access, and serial port access with the CSI
XP32.
Telnet access is to one circuit board only (CPU or Transient). With Hyperterm, an analyst may toggle between the two circuit boards With Telnet, an
analyst must individually access each circuit board
Analyst must log onto the board using a name and password with Telnet,
but not with Hyperterm
The user name and password are csi and csiSupport. Both are case sensitive. A telnet
sequence is as follows:
Step 1: Determine the present IP addresses of both CSI XP32 circuit boards.
The LCD display and keypad may be used to read stored values. For the following example, a CSI XP32 with addresses of 192.168.0.10 (CPU) and
192.168.0.11 (Transient) was used.
Step 2: Select Run from the server Start Menu, and type the command
telnet followed by the IP address of the circuit board.
Telnet to CSI XP32 CPU board that has address 192.168.0.10
Step 3: Click the OK button on the Run window.
3-11
Step 4: type csi at the login prompt, and csiSupport at the Password prompt.
Telnet login
Step 5: Type the command bootChange (note: case sensitive). Scroll through
the existing boot parameters using the Enter key, change values as necessary.
Step 6: Type the command bootChange a second time, review settings.
Step 7: Type exit or close the telnet window when you are done. New boot
settings will not take effect yet, not until the CSI XP32 is rebooted.
Example CSI XP32 CPU board boot settings
Step 8. Select Run from the server Start Menu, and open a telnet session
with the other circuit board. Make changes as necessary, review changes,
close the telnet window
Step 9: reboot the CSI XP32. Either toggle the power on and off, or telnet
to the CPU board and type the command reboot.
3-12
Note
While the CSI XP32 is rebooting, it will not initially respond to a telnet
command. Internal memory and processors must be initialized (late
in the boot sequence) before the system will respond to Ethernet
commands (i.e. telnet, reboot, bootChange).
3-13
Description of Boot Parameters

The CSI XP32 boot parameters are stored in non-volatile memory (memory that
keeps its contents even when power is removed). Parameters for a CSI XP32 system
are shown in the following figure, and explained as follows.
CSI XP32 CPU board boot parameters
Item 1 is the boot device and processor number.

Warning!
Only the IP addresses should be changed. If the other values are
changed, the unit will not successfully boot.
The 4500HOST name is normally the name assigned to the online server in Network Administration.
Item 2 is the boot file name. The CPU and transient boards use different boot files.
These files are stored on the online server at directory C:\Inetpub\ftproot\bin.
When the CSI XP32 boots up, it will search for the server, and in directory
C:\Inetpub\ftproot, it will look for subdirectory bin, and then the boot files
within that subdirectory.
Item 3 is the IP address of this circuit board (CPU board in this example). This
address must be listed in Machinery Health Manager Network Administration,
Online Server Setup, to make the unit available for databases.
3-14
Item 4 is the IP address of the server. Note that this address is stored in memory in
both the CPU board, and in the Transient board. If the server address is changed,
then both this boot parameter must be updated in both boards.
Item 5 (user, ftp password) are the file transfer name and password which the CSI
XP32 will use when downloading firmware from the server into the CSI XP32.
Item 6 is a specific set of flags, which should not need to be changed.

The CSI XP32 database

The process of building an online database is described in manual part number
97460, and in the Emerson Online monitoring product course.
Before building a CSI XP32 database

CSI XP32 applications will normally need the following information, while
building a database:
Sensors connected to each CSI XP32 signal channel; sensitivity, offset (proximity probes, thrust probes), signal range
Source of sensor power for accelerometers
Definition of the transient event; speed drops below 3585, input relay from
external control system changes state, etc.
Sensors for which transient measurements are desired
IP address of CSI XP32(s)
Bearing clearances (radial proximity probes)
Resting DC voltage measurements for radially mounted proximity probes.
3-16
This series of tasks is different for a CSI XP32 application, than for other online
monitoring applications. In most cases, the CSI XP32 is not connected directly to
sensors (proximity probe drivers, accelerometers, etc.). Rather, it is connected via
coax cable with BNC terminations to a panel of monitoring modules. These modules are connected to field wiring.
CSI XP32 Module Outputs, Sensor Outputs
Therefore one of the most important items, when building a database, is a drawing
or listing which shows what sensors are connected to which monitoring modules.
In addition, an analyst who builds a CSI XP32 database, needs to know if the monitoring modules perform any signal conditioning on the input signals, before
passing them through to their output connectors.
The CSI XP32 monitoring unit has the capability to provide bias voltage and current (+24V/4mA) for accelerometers, and must be in this configuration if connecting directly to accelerometers. However, if connecting to a module, it is likely
that the module powers/biases the accelerometers, and sensor power should not
be turned on at each CSI XP32 signal connection.
3-17
When Building a CSI XP32 database

The program used to build a CSI XP32 database is Online Configuration. This
program includes conditional statements, called Collection Predicates, used to
define machine events. The collection predicate is defined for the purpose of auto
archiving transient data from the CSI XP32 to a permanent location on the laptop.
The transient event is defined by a collection predicate. The predicate has a true
or false value, depending upon its definition.
A typical collection predicate for CSI XP32 transient operation would be Speed
below 3585 RPM. This predicate will have a value of False if speed is above 3585
RPM. It would have a value of True if speed is below 3585. This could be the transient event.
The collection predicate is used by the CSI XP32 to automatically collect transient
waveforms from the CSI XP32, and send them in a (large) folder to the laptop.
Once on the laptop, the measurements are saved and they may be examined by the
CSI XP32 analyst.
To create this (example) transient collection predicate, the following sequence
would be used in Online Configuration:
Step 1: Right click on the Predicates folder beneath the CSI XP32 and
select Add Collection Predicate.
Transient Event Collection Predicate
Step 2: Enter a name for the predicate, do not include any blanks in the
name.
Step 3: Click the down arrow button beside the Tach field, and select the
tachometer to be used during transient acquisition. This will be a tachometer connected to CSI XP32 tach location 13, 14, 15, or 16.
3-18
Step 4: Click the arrow button beside the tach Comparison field, and
select the equation to be used for the predicate.
Select predicate equation
Step 5: Enter a value in the Speed1 field, in this example 3585.
Transient Collection Predicate
Step 6: Click OK.
3-19
Sensor (or module) characteristics are also described to a database with

Online Configuration.
Sensor (Module) sensitivity and range
The CSI XP32 will frequently be used to monitor turbomachinery, and in this environment, specific plots and measurements are used. These include:
Shaft centerline plots; displays of the shaft position within a bearing area,
Orbits; displays of shaft vibration from a pair of probes
Bode\Nyquist plots, which show phase and signal amplitude.
Information is built into the CSI XP32 database, so that software program Diagnostic Analysis can create these plots. Details of database construction are described
in other Emerson manuals. However, the following information summarizes
important sensor mounting characteristics.
Proximity Probe Initial Position
Two values are entered in a CSI XP32 database, which are used by both the shaft
centerline and orbit plots for pairs of proximity probes. These are:
Resting DC voltage
Bearing clearance
3-20
The resting DC voltage is a measurement taken when a shaft is not turning, and is
resting at the bottom of the bearing. Bearing clearance is the difference in diameters between the rotating shaft, and the internal area of the bearing. These are
shown in the following figure, although the clearances are exaggerated for the purposes of illustration.
Resting DC voltage, Bearing clearance
As the shaft rotates, it rises up in the bearing clearance area, as shown in the following figure.
At speed centerline location
3-21
The resting DC voltage and bearing clearance values are used to calculate this
change in position. The Diagnostic Analysis program uses these stored values, and
values measured while the shaft is rotating, to show how the shaft is moving.
Prox Probe initial (resting) DC voltage, bearing clearance
3-22
The following figure is an actual shaft centerline plot. The bearing clearance is the
circle which surrounds the measurements. A cursor has been placed on the running speed (1802.7 RPM) location. The plot shows a series of measurements, taken
at different speeds for the pair of probes. The first position plotted corresponds to
161 RPM (not labeled on the plot). The shaft has moved up in the bearing area as
speed increased.
Diagnostic Analysis shaft centerline plot
3-23
Probe mounting geometry is described to the CSI XP32 database using a screen
associated with a component. This information includes the convention used to
define clockwise and counter clockwise (from driven or driver end), probe
mounting angles, and tachometer (phase reference) mounting angle.
Probe mounting geometry
Commissioning a database for Transient Operation
The CSI XP32 system may simultaneously be used to monitor machinery under
normal operating conditions, and also to create a large archive of information for
those signals which are designated (while building the database) as transient. All
sensor connections to the CSI XP32 are commissioned for normal operation.
Some (or all) of these are designated as transient, and are commissioned for
transient operation as well.
Commissioning for transient operation involves three steps:
Step 1: Create collection predicate for transient auto archive operation
Step 2: Commission transient channels
Step 3: Create an Autoarchive definition
3-24
Step 1 is to create a collection predicate for transient operation. Often this will be a
Trip event; such as speed for tachometer channel 13 drops below 3585 RPM.
This collection predicate will be used (in Step 3) to cause the CSI XP32 to automatically transfer a large folder (an archive) of transient measurements to the online
server. Once on the server, they may be viewed and studied by an analyst. And measurements on the server are not affected by CSI XP32 HDD operation (i.e. old
measurements on HDD will eventually be written over by new measurements)
Step 2 is to commission transient channels. This is a quick process, and unlike prediction channel commissioning, can be done all at once for all of the transient
channels. An analyst may designate some or all of the already commissioned predictive channels, for transient operation. Some signals (i.e. case expansion, motor
horizontal outboard) may not include valuable transient information. In this case,
they do not need to be commissioned as transient, only as predictive signals.
To commission channels for transient operation, select the CSI XP32 in the left
hand panel (in Online Configuration) and right click on it.
Commission Transient channels (1)
Note
In the previous figure channels 1-6 are already commissioned for
normal operation, as indicated by the green circle and check mark
at each channel connection.
3-25
A pop-up window will appear. Signals which are commissioned for predictive operation are listed in the window. Left click in each box, to designate the channel as
transient.
Measurements for the entire set of signals will be shown. A vertical scroll bar at the
right side of the waveform display may be used to view signals not shown in the popup window. At the bottom of the waveform display window, is a single Commission button. Left click on this button to commission the channels for transient
operation.
Designate transient channels
3-26
View signals, Commission for Transient
Channels which are commissioned as transient will be indicated in several places in

the database. When viewing the Unit image, these will have a letter T inside the
green commissioned signal indicator
Note T: channel is transient
3-27
Measurement Point Transient Indicator
The Online Configuration program may be used to create a report which lists an
overview of connections to a CSI XP32. This report is described later, however one
column in the report shows which channels have been commissioned for transient
operation.
Transient Channels in Unit Report
After the channels are commissioned as transient, the system will begin writing
information from those channels onto the CSI XP32 HDD (assuming the database
was downloaded into the CSI XP32). However, one step remains. This step tells the
CSI XP32 when to automatically send an archive of measurements from the CSI
XP32 to the online server. This is step 3 of the transient commissioning sequence.
3-28
To tell the system when to automatically send transient information to the online
server, right click on the transient tachometer (location 13, 14, 15, or 16), and select
Transient Autoarchive Properties.
Define Transient Autoarchive
A pop-up window will appear. In this window, three characteristics of the automatically generated archive are described. First, a name is assigned. In the following
figure a name of RANGE 1500_2985 has been assigned. All automatically created
archives will use this text, and will add to it a date-time indicator, to create individual
(and unique, different date-times) archive folder names.
Autoarchive Properties
The second autoarchive characteristic is the collection predicate which is to be

used, to trigger the archive creation. In the previous figure, a collection predicate
which will be TRUE when speed at tachometer connection 13 is above 1500
RPM, and below 2985 RPM.
3-29
The third and final autoarchive characteristic is the window of time, around the
transient predicate change. In the previous example, an autoarchive will include 5
minutes of measurements (already in the CSI XP32) before the collection predicate changes to TRUE, and then 2 minutes of measurements which follow the
predicate change. When all 7 (seven) minutes of measurements have been collected, the archive will be sent from the CSI XP32 to the online server.
Note that only one archive is created when the predicate changes to TRUE. For
instance, if at 0130 AM, speed drops below 2985 RPM. The five minutes of measurements already in the CSI XP32 are grabbed and put in a folder (still on the HDD).
Two additional minutes of measurements are collected, put in the folder, and that
folder is sent to the online server, at about 0132 AM. The collection predicate may
still be TRUE at 0132. However, a second archive will not be started, and sent to the
server. Automatic archives are created when the collection predicate changes to
TRUE.
An Automatic archive may include up to one hour of measurements, which is a tremendous amount (remember, about 40 MByte/channel/hour). Archives may also
be manually created (described later in this section), these can have more than one
hour of information in them.
Reviewing and Saving a Transient Database
After building an CSI XP32 database, an analyst should review it. Mounting probe
angles, rotation direction, resting DC voltages, bearing clearances, etc. A brief summary of an CSI XP32 database may be listed by right clicking the CSI XP32 in the
left hand panel, and then selecting Report. A large listing of CSI XP32 characteristics and physical connections will be shown.
CSI XP32 report
3-30
This report includes:

Firmware revision used by the CSI XP32
Calibration information for the CSI XP32
Predicates and their definitions
Signal connections, which are transient, which are not
Tachometer definitions
Relay definitions
A CSI XP32 report
After a transient database is built and verified, go to File --> Online server --> Save to
save the report. This causes the database configuration to be downloaded into the
CSI XP32.
3-31
CSI XP32 Operation: Online Watch

Machinery Health Manager program Online Watch is used to monitor system
status, and view latest measurements. Transient system status includes:
Streaming\not streaming to HDD (and which HDD)
Time of oldest recorded information
Progress of archive creation.
When a database is downloaded into the CSI XP32, the unit reorganizes internal
software and schedules to conform to the database definition. While it is doing this,
the unit status will be Acknowledged.
Transient Status: acknowledged
When the unit is ready to monitor using the database definition, status will change
to Node(Unit)Up.
3-32
A single Online Watch screen displays CSI XP32 status, and the status of any
archives. This display has two tabs, Transient status and Transient Archive
Status. The Transient Status tab is shown in the following figure.
Online Watch: Transient Status tab
CSI XP32 unit status is shown at the top. It should be Node(Unit)Up, unless a
database was just downloaded into the unit (status will be Acknowledged for a
minute or two). The Current Acquisition State is normally Transient Acquisition
has started. If a database was just downloaded, this field will temporarily have the
value of Unknown. If an analyst has manually stopped recording transient measurements to the CSI XP32, it will have a status of Transient Acquisition has
stopped. The Active Streaming Location field is new to software version 5.0. Software version 5.0 permits a transient system to record to one of two destinations, one
of which is external to the CSI XP32. One location is designated as the Primary
drive, the one which transient measurements are normally written. The second is
designated as the Failover drive, which will be written to if the system detects a
problem with the primary drive. The Primary drive may be the CSI XP32, or it may
be external. The system may be configured to use only one drive, which is the case
in the previous figure.
3-33
Note
The transient drive is the location where transient data is recorded
during normal/constant CSI XP32 operation. Measurements from
this drive are extracted when an archive is created, and sent as a folder
(archive) to the online server.
The Transient Status tab also shows the time of oldest and newest measurements
currently stored in the CSI XP32 for a specific database configuration. These fields
may be updated by clicking the Refresh button.
The final status indicator is the state of transient autoarchive predicate. For the previous figure, the database is using a collection predicate which is TRUE if speed is
above 1500 RPM and below 2985 RPM. Actual speed for tachometer signal 13 is
shown, it is 187 RPM. Therefore the collection predicate is FALSE, as shown in the
last column.
When the autoarchive predicate changes to TRUE, an analyst may select the
second tab Transient Archive Status to monitor progress of archive creation.
3-34
For the following figures, the autoarchive definition created in Online Configuration is to create archives with a name of RANGE 1500_2985 (plus date-time stamp),
and to include 5 minutes of measurements before the predicate changes to TRUE,
and then 2 minutes of measurements that follow. For the sequence shown in the
following figures, speed was increased from 187 RPM, causing the predicate to
change to TRUE.
Autoarchive Predicate = TRUE
The Transient Archive Status tab shows that an archive is being created. Initially, it
has a status of Pending. This is because the system is adding two more minutes of
measurements to a folder. When it has the complete set of measurements (5 minutes before the predicate changed to TRUE, 2 minutes after), it will send this folder
to the online server. While it is doing this, the archive status is Archiving, and
transmission progress is shown in the last column.
Autoarchive status = Archiving
3-35
The autoarchive has the name assigned in Online Configuration (RANGE

1500_2985) with a date time stamp (05-30-2007 10.17.07). This means that every
automatically created archive has a unique name. If the Transient archive predicate
changes to FALSE, and then changes back to TRUE, a new archive will be created, but it will have a different name since the date-time is different.
Once all of the measurements are sent to the online server, archive status changes
to Complete
Autoarchive status = Complete
Archives are stored in folders in the server \CustData directory. Two items will
be created in that directory, having the same name as the CSI XP32 database. One
is the actual database (.rbm file). The other is a folder. The following figure shows
these two items for a database named CSI XP32.rbm.
CustData directory, CSI XP32 database CSI XP32
3-36
Inside folder CSI XP32 there are a collection of other folders. One of these, the
archives folder, is where archives of transient information are stored. In the earlier
example, an archive was created named Range 1500_2985_05-30-2007 10.17.07
Archive folders
Three specific transient operations may also be performed using Online Watch.
These are:
Manual archives may be created
Archive predicates may be disabled
Transient streaming (to the CSI XP32) may be stopped
Manual archives are created in Online Watch by a two step process:
Step 1: Select a component which has transient signals.
Step 2: Right click and select Start Transient Archive.
Step 3: Define the manual archive characteristics.
Steps 1 and 2, Manual Archive Creation
3-37
Step 3, Manual Archive Characteristics
Archive progress may be observed using the Transient Archive Status tab for the
CSI XP32 unit.
Manual Archive Status
There are three major differences between a manually created archive, and an
automatically created archive. These are:
Manual archives only include information already in the CSI XP32. Transient archives can include information which is received after the transient
collection predicate = TRUE.
Manual archives do not automatically have a date-time stamp appended to
them. Ensure that unique names are assigned.
Manual archives may have more than one hour of measurements in them.
Automatically generated archives have a maximum of 60 minutes (one
hour) of measurements.
3-38
Three other operations may be performed using Online Watch. First, automatic
archive creation can be disabled. An analyst may wish to do this during startup, or
if the machine is being cycled, and multiple archives are not desired. To disable
automatic archive creation, right click on the archive predicate on the Transient
Status tab and select Disable Archive Predicate.
Disable Archive Predicate
A pop-up, caution window will be displayed, asking the analyst to verify the disable
command.
The predicate state will be Disabled in Online Watch until it is re-enabled. It may
be manually re-enabled by right-clicking and selecting Enable Archive Predicate.
Disabled Archive Predicate
It is important to note that when an archive predicate changes from Disabled to

True, no archive is created. Consider the following sequence:
1. . . Archive predicate is false.
2. . . Archive predicate is disabled, prior to machinery start-up.
3. . . Machine starts up, goes to speed of 1800 RPM.
4. . . Archive predicate is re-enabled.
5. . . Archive predicate immediately changes to value of TRUE.
6. . . No archive is created.
7. . . Machine speed continues to rise, goes to a speed of 3000 RPM.
8. . . Archive predicate changes to value of FALSE.
9. . . Machine trips, speed drops below 2985 RPM.
10. . Archive predicate changes to value of TRUE.
11. . Archive is automatically created and sent to online server.
3-39
It is also important to note that disabling\re-enabling archive predicates only determine if the CSI XP32 will send an archive to the online server, or not. This does not
stop measurements from being recorded by the CSI XP32. In the previous
sequence, a manual archive could be extracted, starting at the time when the
archive predicate was initially false, and ending at the time that the machine was at
3000 RPM.
However, an analyst may command the CSI XP32 to stop recording transient information using a single command. To stop transient acquisition, right click on the
CSI XP32 and select Stop Transient Acquisition. A pop-up window will indicate
that this has happened, and the status indicator will be:
Stop Transient Acquisition
Transient Status = Stopped
3-40
Analysts may remove items from the Transient Archive Status screen. This does
not delete archives from the online server, it only removes them from the list shown
on the Transient Archive Status tab. To remove an archive from the listing, right
click on it and select Acknowledge Transient Archive.
Acknowledging Transient Archives
3-41
Managing Archives
Typical CSI XP32 operation will involve moving around, and examining, extremely
large amounts of transient information. A one hour archive for an CSI XP32 which
has 10 channels commissioned for transient operation, will be approximately 400
Mbytes in size. The CSI XP32 will permit an analyst to manually extract 10, 20, 30,
etc. hours of measurements from the CSI XP32. Obviously these files can be
extremely large. Even an online server with an extremely large HDD will eventually
fill up.
Efficient CSI XP32 system operation will be achieved if the analyst regularly reviews
extracted archives (automatic, manual), and keeps only those of interest, or keeps
only the portions of interest in each archive. Other Emerson documentation
describes how to extract a smaller archive from a large one, using program Diagnostic Analysis.
Archive movement and display is significantly affected by characteristics of the
laptop. An archive consists of a continuos waveform, the length of the archive. Laptops have a finite amount of video display memory that may limit the amount of
graphic data viewed in an archive. If an analyst wants to extract and view large
amounts of information from the CSI XP32, individual archives of 1 - 2 hours of
measurements should be sequentially extracted.
3-42
Changing from one database to another

The CSI XP32 is a continuous but portable monitoring system. Because it is continuous, it normally has an active database into which it stores measurements from a
CSI XP32 monitoring unit. Because it is portable, it may be moved from one piece
of rotating machinery to another. This portability places one significant requirement on analysts; ensure that measurements from one machine do not become
stored in a database or archive folder for a different one.
Warning!
Ensure that the following sequence is observed, whenever moving
the CSI XP32 from one monitoring rack\machine to another. Incorrect performance of this sequence could result in the storage of one
(the second machine) in the database of another (the first machine)
To move the XP32 from one machine to another, which has a different database,
the analyst must perform the following sequence:
1. . . Before disconnecting from the first machine, open program Network
Administration.
Note
You will need to logon to AMS Machinery Health Manager as an
Administrator to access this program.
3-43
2. . . Click on the Online Server listed in the bottom center panel. This panel is
named Online Servers and the entry listed in the panel is normally
4500Host, or localhost, or the laptops name.
3. . . In the Online Server pop-up window, click the Stop Data Collection
button.
4. . . Disconnect the CSI XP32 from the first machine, move to the second
machine.
5. . . Click the Edit button (not shown in above figure), which is to the right of
the Machinery Health Manager Database field. Select the second
machines database from the pop-up window.
6. . . Click the Start Data Collection button at the bottom of the Online Server
Setup machine. This is the same button that was labeled Stop Data
Collection when this sequence was begun (Dual purpose button; label
3-44
shows the operation which can be commanded). The system will now store
any measurements or archives in the second database.

Chapter 4
Basic Maintenance and Troubleshooting
Introduction
During the lifetime of a CSI XP32 system, an analyst can expect to perform both of
the following maintenance tasks:
Installing new firmware
Installing new software
Change CSI XP32 boot settings
Also during the lifetime of a CSI XP32 system, an analyst may need to troubleshoot
one of the following situations:
Measurements in Online Watch and/or Diagnostic Analysis appear incorrect
Online Watch CSI XP32 status is Node(Unit)Down
Heart ICON on LCD is broken
CSI XP32 does not communicate with online server
Automatic archive was not created
Archive was truncated
Unable to make changes to a database
4-1

Periodically Emerson will revise firmware used by the CSI XP32 (and companion
products). This may be downloaded from the CSI web site, and it often is included
in a folder with a software update CD.
Each time the CSI XP32 starts up, it steps through the following sequence:
Verifies firmware revision of firmware image copy stored in local (CSI XP32)
memory
Using the server address stored in local memory, contacts the server, and
looks for firmware in server directory C:\Inetpub\ftproot\bin.
Checks firmware revision of files on the server, compares to revision of
image stored in local memory
If firmware revision on server is different, it downloads that firmware using
a server O/S service utility (not software written by Emerson)
Updates image stored in local memory with the new files, boots up using the
new files.
An important point to note in the above sequence is that the CSI XP32 loads firmware when it boots up. The CSI XP32 will not use new firmware on the online
server, unless the unit is rebooted after the new firmware was loaded on the server.
To correctly load new firmware into an CSI XP32, perform the following steps:
Step 1: Before loading new firmware, use the CSI XP32 LCD keys to display
the firmware revision currently loaded in the CSI XP32.
Step 2: copy new firmware to server directory C:\Inetpub\ftproot\bin\. At
least three files need to be in this folder: 4500dcmII, 4500T, csi4500sym.
Step 3: reboot the CSI XP32 (toggle power off and then on).
Step 4: After the unit has rebooted, use the CSI XP32 LCD keys to display
the firmware revision loaded in the CSI XP32. It should be an updated version.
4-2
The firmware revision loaded in an CSI XP32 may be viewed by selecting System
Status from the top level LCD menu. The System Status submenu will be displayed. There are four entries for an CSI XP32 system.
System Status submenu
The Online Status submenu will list the CPU board firmware revision (server file
4500dcmII revision). The Trans Status submenu will list the Transient board firmware revision (server file 4500T).

It is strongly recommended that databases and accompanying transient archives
which were created and managed by one software revision, be copied to a safe
folder location, prior to updating software. Major software changes (i.e. version
4.90 to 5.0) will re-index a database when it is opened in the new software. The reindexed database cannot be opened with the earlier software revision. Software will
always notify an analyst before it re-indexes a database.
Copying databases and archives to a safe folder is an easy operation, performed
using the online server operating system tools (click and drag, etc.), with one
exception. If the CSI XP32 is prepared to store data in a specific database, the operating system will not let you make a copy of that database. In this case, you must stop
data collection first.
To stop data collection, perform the following sequence of steps:
Step 1: Log on to Machinery Health Manager software using an administrator account.
Step 2: Open program Network Administration.
Step 3: Right-click the online server from the bottom center panel and
select Online Server Setup.
Netadmin Online Server Setup
4-4
Step 4: Click the Stop Data Collection button. Note that this is a multipurpose selector and not a status indicator. It is used to both stop and start data
collection. The button is labeled with the operation which an analyst may
command. For instance, if the system is currently storing data in database
XP32.rbm, the button will be labeled Stop Data Collection.
Stopping data collection
Step 5: Click the Done button and then exit Network Administration.
It is important to note that both the database, and accompanying archives, should
be at least temporarily copied prior to updating software. Archives are located in a
folder which has the same name as the CSI XP32 transient database. Both are in
the \RBMNet\RBMSuite\CustData directory.
Periodically Emerson will revise software used by the CSI XP32 (and companion
products). This may be downloaded from the CSI web site, and is sometimes
received on a CD. Firmware on the CD may include a Setup file, which will install
the software, performing all necessary background steps (such as halting online
server operation). If a setup file is supplied, simply run the setup file.
Software patches
If software patches (changes to one or more of the Machinery Health Manager
software programs, but not to all of them) are supplied, the following sequence
should be used.
Step 1: Stop data collection (Network Administration)
4-5
Step 2: Stop CSI XP32 services (see next paragraph)

Step 3: Copy patches to appropriate folder. Machinery Health Manager software executable files are normally located at directory ...\RBMNet\RBMSuite\sys.
Step 4: Restart CSI XP32 services.
CSI XP32 software uses five services. Services are programs, running in the background on the server. These specific programs are configured to start up automatically, whenever the online server starts up. To access these, use the following
sequence:
Step 1: Right click on My Computer and select Manage.
Under My Computer select Manage
Step 2: Select Services in the left hand panel.

Step 3: Scroll down in the service listing in the right hand panel, right click
over service CsiO_Server. Right click and select Stop.

Stopping service CsiO_Server
Step 4: In this order, stop services CsiNetAdmin, CsiMtdbMgr,

Csi_MhmRemote.

Maintenance: change CSI XP32 boot settings

During normal usage, it is unlikely that boot settings initially programmed into the
CSI XP32 CPU and Transient circuit boards, will ever need to be changed. However at least two unusual situations may require that these settings be changed.
These are:
CPU or Transient board is being replaced, if replacement board has different boot settings
CSI XP32 is added to an existing Ethernet network, not directly connected
to the online server through a dedicated cable.
Note
Do not add a CSI XP32 to an existing Ethernet network until its IP
addresses (CPU board, Transient board) have been verified and
changed if necessary, to be compatible with addresses already in use
on the existing network.
Default\factory boot settings may be correct for an CSI XP32 system. Normally, a
CPU board will be programmed with address 192.168.0.10, a Transient board with
192.168.0.11, and both will expect the server to be at address 192.168.0.1. These
may be the exact values for your CSI XP32 system. To determine the initial settings
for a replaced board, insert the board in the CSI XP32, and power it up. When it
has finished its boot cycle, use the LCD keypad to interrogate the unit, and determine its addresses.
The recommended method of changing CSI XP32 boot settings is via a hyperterm session. This was described in Chapter 3 of this manual, and is repeated here.
To change IP addresses stored in the CSI XP32, a cross-over RS232 cable is
needed, connected between the online server serial port, and the CSI XP32 9-pin
front connector. The cable will need a male\plug connector on one end, and a
female\receptacle connector on the other (CSI XP32) end.
Configure the online server serial port as follows:
9600 baud
8 data bits
4-8
1 stop bit
No parity
No flow control
Connect the serial cable to both the CSI XP32 9-pin connection, and the laptop.
Open operating system utility Hyperterm. This is usually selected from Programs -> Accessories -> Communications -> Hyperterm, as shown in the following
figure.
Hyperterm utility
When connected to an CSI XP32, an analyst will use four commands or key strokes
to interact with the boot settings stored in each processing board (CPU, Transient).
These are:
bootChange - (case sensitive). This will cause the boot parameters for the
specific circuit board to be listed, one at a time. To change a parameter, type
the new value beside the stored value. DO NOT ATTEMPT TO BACKSPACE\DELETE THE STORED PARAMETERS
Ctrl-B - (Hold down Ctrl key and press the B key). This will toggle from one
board to the other (if serial port is communicating with the CPU board, CtrlB will toggle to the Transient board)
Ctrl-T - will cause the board to display an identifier (tell you which board you
are communicating with)
reboot - (case sensitive, all lower case). This will cause the board to reboot,
using new boot settings
. - the period key. Type a period at the end of a stored value, to clear this
value.
Important rules when changing boot parameters
Rule 1: no boot parameters take effect, until the unit is rebooted.

Rule 2: Do not attempt to delete stored values. Type a new value beside the
stored value.
Maintenance: change CSI XP32 boot settings
4-9
Rule 3: Only change the IP address values.

Caution!
Do not change ftp password, boot file name, flags, etc. If a unit boots up with
incorrect values for these parameters, the system will probably not operate and in
some cases, the unit may need to be returned to Emerson.
Rule 4: In most cases, changes will need to be made to both processing boards.
Both the CPU and Transient boards will need to be updated. They have separate boot parameters, changing one set does not change the other.
Rule 5: Review changes, before using the reboot command.
Rule 6: If network addresses are changed, update any drawings or documents
which use the old addresses.
4-10
To change IP addresses stored in the CSI XP32

Perform the following sequence:
Step 1: Write down the IP addresses which need to be changed. Normally
this will be either the online server address, or the CPU address or Transient
board address.
Step 2: Connect to the CSI XP32, start a hyperterm session.
Step 3: Type the command bootChange (note this is case-sensitive; all lower
case letters except for the C in Change)
Step 4: Use the Enter key to advance down the list of parameters, until the
specific parameter is listed.
Step 5: Type the new parameter value beside the old value
Step 6: Use the Enter key to advance through the list of parameters
Example of CSI XP32 CPU board settings
Step 7: At the end of the list, type Ctrl-B (hold Ctrl key down, press the B
key) to toggle to the other circuit board.
Step 8: Type bootChange for this board.
Step 9: Use the Enter key to advance through the list of parameters on the
other circuit board, making changes as necessary
Step 10: Press the Enter key until at the end of the parameter list
To change IP addresses stored in the CSI XP32
4-11
Step 11: On the second board, type the command bootChange a second time,
press the Enter key to review settings.
An example of Transient board boot settings
Step 12: Type Ctrl-B (hold Ctrl key down, press the B key) to switch to the
other (first) circuit board.
Step 13: Type bootChange a second time, review boot settings
When settings have been changed and reviewed, type the command reboot to
cause the CSI XP32 to boot up using the new settings, or power cycle the unit. Disconnect and store the serial cable. When the CSI XP32 has rebooted, you can view
IP addresses on the LCD display, using the sequence described earlier.
4-12
General
There are other maintenance activities which may need to be performed during
the product life of the CSI XP32. These can include:
Recalibration
Board replacement.
These activities should be coordinated with the appropriate Emerson Product Support office.
Troubleshooting: Measurements in Online Watch and/or Diagnostic

Analysis appear incorrect
Since the CSI XP32 is a portable system using existing field wiring, it is likely that
CSI XP32 values will be compared to values measured by some other instrument
(i.e. the monitor rack which the CSI XP32 connects to, or a hand-held vibration
monitoring instrument such as the CSI 2130).
If two instruments are showing different measurements for the same signal, it is
likely that
Different units are being used by the two instruments
The monitoring rack output signal is not an exact replica of the input signal,
rather it is a conditioned version
The monitoring rack output signal is a current-level signal (i.e. 4-20mA) not
a voltage signal.
General
4-13
The CSI XP32 can display measurements in acceleration, velocity, or displacement.

In addition, spectral displays can be in peak-to-peak, peak, or RMS. Displayed values
may be changed on the appropriate display by right-clicking over the vertical axis
in most displays and selecting desired units.
Online Watch, changing display units
Another possible cause for incorrect measurements, is a mismatch between the

sensitivity programmed into an CSI XP32 database, and the sensitivity (and offset)
of the value which is actually being supplied to the CSI XP32. Note that the CSI
XP32 is normally not connected directly to sensors, but rather to the output of a
module. If the module is conditioning the sensor input, and presenting a modified
value to the CSI XP32, the database must be aware of this and compensate for it.
4-14
To determine if this is happening, examine the Gross Scan DC readings in Online

Watch. For accelerometers, the Gross Scan DC should be in a range of 8-12 Volts
DC. This value should be shown in Online Watch. Proximity probes are normally
gapped at about -10.0 volts, Gross Scan DC should display approximately this level.
In the following figure, signals POH and PIH are accelerometers. Notice the Gross
Scan DC values of 9.442 V and 10.325V. Signals CH1Y1, CH2X1, CH3Y2, and
CY4X2 are proximity probes, which were gapped in a range of -6.77 to -6.896 V DC.
As mentioned earlier, a more typical setting would be about -10.0 Volts. The values
shown in the figure are for proximity probes mounted on a rotor kit, which because
of small shaft and bearing pedestal size, are mounted close to the shaft.
Online Watch Gross Scan DC values
If Gross Scan DC values shown in Online Watch are not typical for the type of
sensor in use, the module which the CSI XP32 is attached to is probably conditioning the output signal. In this case, the CSI XP32 database must be updated
(using program Online Configuration).
General
4-15
The CSI XP32 product expects sensor signals whose voltage is proportional to
vibration or position. This is not the case with a 4-20mA output from a monitoring
module (current is proportional to vibration or position). If 4-20mA signals are provided to the CSI XP32, then a suitable sized resistor needs to be placed in parallel
with sensor BNC inputs (across ground and signal), to convert the current to
voltage, as shown in the following figure.
4 - 20mA conversion and compensation
In the example shown in the following figure, a 500 ohm resistor converts signals
in the range of 4-20mA to 2-10 Volts. After the conversion, the database must be
configured so that it interprets a 2 volt input as a zero value (offset), and each 1 volt
change in input signal as corresponding to 2 ips of vibration change (sensitivity).
4-16
Troubleshooting: CSI XP32 Status is Node(Unit)Down

This can be a temporary condition, or it may be an indicator of a communication
configuration problem.
When the CSI XP32 is powering up, and has not yet identified itself to the online
server, its status (in Online Watch and in Online Configuration) is
Node(Unit)Down. This is a temporary condition.
An online server periodically (every 15 minutes) interrogates its CSI XP32 network
connection, to see if any assigned units are available. Within 15 minutes of powerup, a temporary communication problem will be resolved. An analyst may shortcircuit this 15 minute interval by performing the following steps:
Step 1: Right click on My Computer, select Manage.
Step 2: In the left hand panel, click on Services and Applications to
expand this folder.
Step 3: Select Services in the Services and Applications folder.
Step 4: In the right hand panel, right click on CsiO_Server and select
Restart. This causes service O_server to stop and start. It will immediately
interrogate the CSI XP32 network port and connect to any CSI XP32s
which are assigned to it.
Restarting Csi_O_Server
A status of Node(Unit)Down may also be an indicator of a communication configuration problem. Successful communication between an online server and CSI
XP32 requires:
IP address of CSI XP32 matches IP addresses assigned to the online server
(Network Administration, Online Server Setup)
IP address of server matches server IP address stored in CSI XP32 boot
memory
General
4-17
CSI XP32 configuration must match configuration created in Online

Watch for the unit
Ethernet connection between online server and CSI XP32 must be functioning
Other CSI XP32 boot parameters must be correct
Any online server firewalls have been configured to permit CSI XP32 and
online server communication, or have been disabled.
IP Addresses stored in the CSI XP32 may be displayed on the CSI XP32 LCD
by:
Step 1: From the top level menu, select System Status.

Step 2: On the System Status submenu, select Online BootParms.
Step 3: Scroll down in the Online BootParms listing until IP addresses stored
in the CPU board are shown.
Step 4: Return to System Status submenu, select Trans BootParms.
Step 5: Scroll down in the Trans BootParms listing until IP addresses stored
in the Transient board are shown.
IP address of the Online Server may be set / viewed by:
Step 1: Select Control Panel.

Step 2: Select Network Connections.
Step 3: Select the Ethernet port used to communicate with the CSI XP32.
Step 4: Select Properties.
Step 5: In the Properties screen, scroll down to Internet Protocol
(TCP\IP), then click the Properties button.
Step 6: Verify that Use the Following IP address button is on, and that the
IP address (of the server) matches the address stored in the CSI XP32.
If CSI XP32 IP addresses are incorrect, they may be changed via a hyperterm connection to the CSI XP32 9-pin serial port.
Step 1: Connect a null-modem serial cable between the online server and
CSI XP32 DB9.
Step 2: Open hyperterm on the online server.
4-18
Step 3: Connect to the 4500.

Step 4: Type the command bootChange.
Step 5: Scroll down the boot parameters by using the Enter key. To change
a boot parameter (i.e. IP address of server, IP address of CSI XP32 board),
type the new value beside the displayed current setting.
Step 6: Review all changes by typing the command bootChange again. To
erase a setting, type the period (.) character.
Step 7: DO NOT CHANGE boot parameters not necessary for communication. The only boot parameters that an analyst should ever need to change
are: IP address of server, IP address of board and in rare occasions, file location for the boot file.
Step 8: After reviewing changes, use the Ctrl-B key sequence to toggle to the
other circuit board which has stored boot parameters in it. Use the above
sequence on the second board.
Step 9: When boot parameters have been changed AND REVIEWED,
reboot the unit.
An CSI XP32 may not communicate (status = Node(Unit)Down) if boot parameters are incorrect, including those not used for addressing. For instance, the first
boot parameter boot device, must have a value of shend0. If this value is changed,
the unit will not communicate with online server. If parameters user, or ftp password are changed, the unit may communicate, but it will not download new firmware.
In most applications, the CSI XP32 is connected directly to the online server. However it is possible to connect the CSI XP32 to a network, and then for the online
server to be also connected to the network, some distance away. If there is a gateway
(not a switch or hub) between the CSI XP32 and online server, than that gateway
IP address must also be programmed into the CSI XP32 (both boards; the CPU
board, and Transient board) at boot setting gateway inet.
General
4-19
Heart icon on LCD is broken

Each time an CSI XP32 starts up, it runs a series of Power On Self Tests (POST).
These are tests of internal electronics, signal paths, memory access, etc. Should the
unit fail a POST test, the Heart ICON on the LCD will have a broken appearance. In this case, the unit should be returned to CSI for repair.
Broken Heart ICON
Some details about the failure may be shown by scanning LCD submenus, or by a
telnet session with the unit (assuming it can communicate with the online
server).
POST test results are listed in the System Status submenu, on the Online Status and
Trans Status submenus. Scroll down in the listing to display individual test summary
results.
CPU board POST Status listing (1)
4-20
CPU board POST Status listing (2)
If the CSI XP32 is able to communicate with the online server, then a telnet session
may be used, which may give some details about the POST failure.
Type telnet <IP address of CPU board> (example: telnet 192.168.0.10) on
the Run line.
Telnet to CPU board
Type csi at the login prompt, and csiSupport at the Password prompt (note
that login, password and commands are case sensitive).
Type the command showUnitStatus (Note: case sensitive).
showUnitStatus command
General
4-21
Scroll down in the listing until the flags are shown. If there was a POST
failure, a flag will be set, and the title of the failure will also be listed.
Flags in showUnitStatus listing
Scroll down in the listing until the Transient board flags are listed.
Flags in showUnitStatus listing
These steps will not correct a POST failure, but they will give more details. It is possible that a failed unit may temporarily be used in a specific application, prior to
shipment back to CSI for repair. For instance, if a signal path on the circuit board
with signals 17-32 has failed, but the analyst wishes to operate the system in a configuration that only uses signal connections at 1-16, the system may function for that
measurement. However, the recommended procedure, if the Heart ICON is
broken, is to immediately send the unit back to CSI for repair.
4-22
CSI XP32 does not communicate with online server

If the CSI XP32 is not communicating with the online server, it will have a status of
Node(Unit)Down in both Online Watch and Online Configuration. This may be
a temporary or permanent condition, as described in an earlier section. When this
situation occurs, the Network ICON will not be visible in the lower left square on
the LCD display.
Unit not connected to server
Valid network communication requires the following:

Physical connection between CSI XP32 and online server
IP address matching; server, CSI XP32
No firewalls blocking communication
Service CsiO_Server running on online server.
The first troubleshooting step for a suspected communication problem is to ping
the CPU board. To ping the CPU board, open a command window (Start menu
--> Run --> Command), then type the command ping 192.168.0.10.
Note
If CSI XP32 CPU address is different, type that address instead of
192.168.0.10.
General
4-23
A valid ping indicates that the two Ethernet addresses can communicate, and that
the problem is probably a configuration mismatch between the CSI XP32 and
online server.
Valid ping exchange
If the ping message fails, the problem is probably a physical error between the CSI
XP32 and online server (bad Ethernet connection, gateway between the two units,
wrong CPU IP address programmed into CSI XP32).
Failed ping exchange
4-24
Automatic archive was not created

As part of database creation for an CSI XP32 transient system, an autoarchive is
defined. This definition associates a TRUE\FALSE condition (predicate) with a set
of transient signals, and with a time-window, which starts before the predicate
becomes TRUE and ends after it has become TRUE.
The most likely cause of a situation where an archive is not automatically created is
one of the following:
Archive predicate condition not TRUE
Archive predicate has been disabled in Online Watch
Data streaming to HDD was halted in Online Watch.
To trigger automatic creation of an archive, the predicate used with that archive
must change state from either FALSE to TRUE, or from INDETERMINATE
to TRUE. The archive predicate does not need to remain true for the entire
archive sequence, it only has to change state to TRUE.
Archive predicate state (last line)
Note that the following two events will not cause an archive to be created:
Predicate changes from Disabled to TRUE
Predicate remains TRUE after initial archive is created.
General
4-25
Archive creation can be disabled in Online Watch by right-clicking on the predicate

and then selecting Disable Archive Predicate.
Disabling Archive Predicate
An analyst may wish to disable an archive predicate, for instance if a machine is

being cycled (which would cause multiple archives to be created), or is initially
starting up. When an analyst disables an archive predicate, a pop-up window will ask
him or her to verify this request.
Note again that a transition from Disabled to TRUE will not cause an archive to
be created. Consider the following sequence for the predicate shown in the previous figure (archive will be created when speed goes above 1500 RPM, or drops
below 2985 RPM from a higher speed):
13:00 -- Analyst disables predicate, turbine speed is 300 RPM
13:15 -- Turbine begins to start up
14:00 -- Turbine is now at 2500 RPM
14:15 -- Analyst enables predicate, turbine speed is 2600 RPM, archive predicate is TRUE, but no automatic archive is created.
Disabling an archive predicate does not stop measurements from being written to
the CSI XP32 HDD. The values are still there. In the above sequence, an analyst
may manually extract measurements from the CSI XP32 HDD for the time period
13:00 to 14:15.
4-26
An analyst may actually command the system to stop writing measurements to the
HDD. This feature should be exercised with caution. To stop transient acquisition,
right click on the unit and select Stop Transient Acquisition.
Stop Transient Acquisition
This condition is indicated on the Transient Status tab for the CSI XP32 unit.
Transient Acquisition stopped indication
General
4-27
Archive was truncated

An archive will have a status of Truncated if an analyst extracts a block of data
across a gap in the time frame requested. Consider the following sequence:
13:00 -- Turbine speed is 300 RPM
13:15 -- Turbine begins to ramp up
13:30 -- Analyst stops transient acquisition
14:00 -- Turbine is now at 2500 RPM
14:15 -- Analyst starts transient acquisition
15:00 -- Turbine is at running speed (3600 RPM)
15:15 -- Analyst attempts to manually extract an archive, starting at 13:00,
continuing until 15:15. An archive will be created, with a start time of 13:00,
and an end time of 13:30 (time that transient acquisition was halted).
Archive status will be Truncated.
Archive status = truncated
4-28
Unable to make changes to a database

If an analyst is not able to make changes to a database, there are two likely causes:
System is in the process of storing an archive, created with an earlier database configuration
Online server is attached to a different database
If an archive is being created (status in Online Watch is Pending or Archiving),
a pop-up window will be displayed when an analyst connects to the online server in
program Online Configuration, as shown in the following figure.
Archive Pending notification: Online Configuration
This is a temporary condition, which may be resolved by either of the following

actions:
Wait for the archive to complete
Cancel the archive. Open Online Watch, go to the Transient Archive
Status tab, right click on the archive and select Cancel Transient.
Cancel Transient Archive
General
4-29
Should another database problem occur, contact the Emerson Product Support
office. For instance, if an analyst cannot open a database, it is possible that this is
because the online server is attached to a different database. In this situation, the
analyst would open Network Administration program, and select Online Server
Setup for the server shown in the bottom center panel, and then click the Stop
Data Acquisition button. However in most cases, either waiting for an archive to
finish, or cancelling a transient archive, will permit an analyst to change the database which the online server is using at the time.
