►Use
►
two 3.0 mm x 0.5 mm thread machine screws to attach
to the bottom or rear 15207A/25207A/35207A mount faces
[recommended torque 5 lbf-in (0.56 N.m)]. Be careful not to
bottom screws in tapped holes as this can strip threads.
►A
► locking compound should be used on all threads to prevent
screws loosening due to vibrations.

How to Use the 15207A / 25207A / 35207A
as an Analog Sensor
►If
►
a Measurement Specialties 35250A PC Interface
Adapter is available, connect its sensor connector to the
15207A/25207A/35207A, apply power to the 35250A, and
connect a computer to the 35250A RS232 connector. A positive
acceleration (labeled on the accelerometer cover) causes a change
on the corresponding output.
►If
► a 35250A is not available, connect a +8.5 to 36 V DC power
source to +Vs. Connect power source ground to the Gnd pin.
Connect a computer RS485 interface to the two RS485 pins on the
15207A/25207A/35207A.
►Optionally,
►
connect a voltmeter or other instrument to each
15207A/25207A/35207A Analog Output and Signal-. For best
results, use a converter with an input impedance greater than 1 MΩ.
►Keep
►
cable lengths between an analog output and an instrument as
short as practical. Use shielded twisted pair wiring, especially near
electric motors or other noise sources.
►Download
►
Instrument Configuration Utility (ICU) software
from precisionsensors.meas-spec.com and use it to configure
the 15207A/25207A/35207A. When transmitting High Speed
Data to a PC, sample frequency should be at least 10 times the
filter bandwidth when linear interpolation is used for signal
reconstruction. Built-in low-pass filtering can be used to lower the
noise floor and eliminate spurious peak measurements from shortduration shock impulses with insignificant energy content.

application.
►Inversion
►
of the sensor channels (Invert). Each channel output
can be inverted for maximum flexibility in your measurements.
►The

telemetry Bit Rate may be adjusted according to how fast
measurements need to take place. RS232 hardware limits bit
rate to 115 kb.
Retrieving the Calibration Certificate
1.Connect to the unit with ICU.
2.At the bottom of the Configure window, click Reports.
3.A separate window opens with Report selections at the bottom.
Select the Calibration check box. The certificate will then be
displayed.

►Start
►
ICU. Use About/Setup to select your COM Port
and confirm the data directory. Select Configuration as the
Program Function and press OK.
►Press
►
the Configuration button. ICU scans for any
instruments attached to the COM Port. If an instrument is
found, ICU connects and reads the instrument configuration.
►The
►
15207A/25207A/35207A comes ready from the factory.
If your application requires changes, use the Main tab
to change the telemetry and the channel tabs to edit each
channel. For each channel, check the Range Hi and Range
Lo and the Filter 3dB Cutoff. If changes are made, you must
press the Write Values to Instrument button. The password
as shipped from the factory is “si”.
►Use
►
the High Speed Acquire button to collect and save data
to disk.
