    Abstract: Rise time, fall time, and width of a single short duration pulse are measured with no a priori knowledge of the pulse. First and second level detectors are used to respectively start and stop a ramp generator. The level detectors are biased to fire at certain defined percentages of the leading and/or trailing edge of the pulse depending upon which time parameter the detectors are measuring. A peak level detector and hold circuit connected to the ramp generator output gives a voltage amplitude proportional to the ''''on'''' time of the generator and thus indicative of the time interval being measured. To supply the level detectors with the proper information, an input and logic section produces from the incoming (positive) pulse its peak amplitude, negative peak amplitude, a delayed positive pulse, a delayed negative pulse, and timing signals for enabling and disabling the level detectors as necessary.

    Abstract: A pulse signal is generated which is a precise multiple of the rotation frequency of a machine to be tested. A sensor is utilized to generate an electrical signal in accordance with vibration developed in the machine with its rotation. Low frequency components of this signal are filtered out therefrom and these filtered signals fed to a pair of switching circuits. The pulse signals in accordance with the rotation of the machine are fed to a switching signal generator where quadrature related signals synchronized with the machine rotation are developed. These quadrature related signals are fed to the switching circuits as the switching control therefor, so as to provide samplings of the vibration signals in quadrature relationship. The outputs of the switching circuits are each integrated and squared, the squared signals then being summed. These summed output signals are then fed to an indicator which provides the indication of the amplitude of vibrational components at the machine rotation frequency or a harmonic thereof.

    Abstract: A rotating portion such as a drive shaft of a machine has a marker placed thereon to indicate a predetermined portion of the rotation cycle. A signal from this marker is sensed by a sensor each time the machinery passes through this portion of the rotation cycle. A ramp generator develops a ramp signal in response to the output of the sensor. The peak of the ramp signal is detected and this peak signal fed to a calibration potentiometer by means of which a percentage of the peak signal can be selected. The output of the potentiometer and that of the ramp generator are fed to a voltage comparator which triggers a pulse generator when the ramp reaches the voltage set on the potentiometer. The output of the pulse generator actuates a strobe light which is used to detect a marker on the machinery indicative of a precise rotational position, the potentiometer being adjusted until the strobe light is precisely synchronized with this marker. Thus a calibration is achieved whereby the output pulse precisely indicates a predetermined rotational position of the machinery. This output pulse can then be used with other measurement circuitry, without further requirement of the strobe light.

    Abstract: A first counter is driven by pulses from a signal generator. A second counter is driven by the output of the signal generator divider by a factor in accordance with the number of cylinders in the engine under test. The output of the second counter is shifted to a register in response to a pulse which is phase synchronized with a predetermined point in the rotation cycle of the engine. The output of the register and the output of the first counter are compared for coincidence, a coincidence signal being generated which corresponds to a predetermined point in the cycle of each of the engine cylinders. These coincidence signals are used to generate window signals which provide gating signals to sensor circuits. The sensor circuits receive the outputs of sensors which provide electrical signals in accordance with various engine parameters. The outputs of the sensor circuits are gated to an indicator by the window signals so that the sensed parameters can be observed at predetermined identifiable portions of each engine rotation cycle.
