BVR+ Installation InstructionsDate: 2007-12-05

BVR+ Software Version: > 7.0.0

1. General Information

1.1 This instruction describes the first time and upgrade installationprocedure for BVR+ software including required drivers andsoftware packages.

1.2 BVR+ Software runs on WINDOWS NT, WINDOWS 2000 andWINDOWS XP. Neither the target BVR+ nor the BVR+ DEMOversion support the operating system WINDOWS 98.

1.3 Please do not install or update any software on MEB 95

electronics, if you do not know this software package, you do notneed the new software functionality or you do not exactly knowhow to install or update the software.

1.4 For the required basic software installation for MEB 95, pleaseselect the required software from the correct sub-folders from theattached CD-ROM (QTC BVR+, Software & Documentation). Before you install any software drivers or applications, check thatthe necessary hardware is installed in your MEB 95 electronics.For instance, if your MEB 95 requires communication to an MTC

system, select the folder CD-ROM-drive\MTC_PLC725_PLC711\andinstall the software package from Advantech. (See section 5 formore information). The communication to a Siemens PLC Systemrequires different software from the folder CD-ROM-drive\Siemens_CP5611. Note, that in all MEB 95 electronics foroffline noise tester (e.g. MVH) the MTC communication board PLC725 from Advantech is installed.

1.5 Before you install any software driver for certain hardware,make sure, that the correct hardware is installed and correct

hardware settings (e.g. jumpers) have been made.

1.6 In MEB 95 electronics, different type of CPU boards are used.Before you install software drivers for the CPU board, make surethat you have selected the correct CPU board type. If you do notknow the installed CPU board type, restart the MEB 95 and note

the CPU board type in the start-up screen or have a look in thesystem settings. The attached CD-ROM supports two differenttypes of CPU boards as follows:

- Intel Pentium 3 Processor 866 MHz

- Intel Pentium M processor 1.8 GHz

1.7 If the MEB 95 electronics does not support a CD-ROM drive orUSB interface (old MEB 95 housing), connect an external orinternal CD-ROM drive on MEB 95. Software installations via floppydisks are not supported for BVR version higher than V6.4.12

1.8 Before you upgrade very old BVR software version (< V5.82,with operating system Windows NT), contact QTC for additionalinformation. A new installation of the operating system including a

hardware upgrade with better performance (CPU speed, memory,interfaces…) is proposed and might be necessary.

1.9 If you connect the MEB 95 to a local LAN network, take careabout virus protection software. On some newer systems, QTC hasinstalled the shareware “AntiVir” program or the SKF’s standardvirus protection tool “eTrust”. Both packages must be updated on aregular base from customer. Contact your local IT department forappropriate virus protection software, software licence andinstallation instruction.

1.10 If you report software or hardware problems of MEB 95electronics or BVR+ software to QTC, please indicate the serialnumber of MEB 95 and all important software versions. (See theabout screen in BVR+ software).

1.11 The name of the system folder for the operating system(WINDOWS 2000 or WINDOWS XP) must be C:\WINNT. If not,copy the system files manually to your system folder duringinstallation.

1.12 Take care, that this user account has administrator privilegesduring all installations.

15/20


9. Software protection

The BVR+ software is protected by a key file in the executiondirectory. It means you must obtain a license for every MEB 95 onwhich the software is installed and used. The license is stored in

the file 'xxxxx.key' (xxxx being the measurement board serialnumber). Therefore each measurement board needs a uniquelicense key file.

Notes:BVR+ software installed from QTC on MEB 95 equipment will beinstalled with a valid license key file. If you install or update BVR+software on MEB 95A electronics take attention to a valid licensekey file in the BVR+ execution directory. Do not rename or deletethe licence key file.

If the BVR+ software is started on MEB 95 electronics (withinstalled measurement board) without valid license key file anauthorisation error will be reported and you will only be able to runBVR+ software in demo mode (MeasBoard = 0 in BVR.ini)

Note: This window is only displayed, ifin the BVR+ system folder (c:\bvr) aninvalid licence key file (e.g. 91107.keyor 63006.key) is available.

How to get and install the software license key file?

1. Start the BVR+ software without any key file in the executiondirectory and with renamed or deleted BVR.ini file. The serialnumber of the measurement board will be displayed in the windowabove (5digits).

Note: In BVR.ini file important calibration data and settings aresaved (e.g. machine settings, passwords, calibration data,..). Donot delete this file.


16/20


Note: The serial number of the measurement board is alsoindicated on the measurement board (white label)

2. If you do not have a valid license key file, send the measuringboard serial number to QTC and request the BVR+ license key file

(xxxxx.key)

3. After you have a valid license key file (xxxxx.key) copy it intothe BVR+ execution directory (default: c:\bvr) and modify the filec:\bvr\bvr.ini as follows:

[SYSTEM]MeasBoard=255

With this setting, the BVR+ software will search for the installed

measurement board (AD416 or SP220) during the next start-up ofthe software. After the correct measurement board has beendetected, the key MeasBoard will be modified as follows:

[SYSTEM]MeasBoard=0 for BVR+ DEMO software versionMeasBoard=1 for AD416MeasBoard=2 for SP220

10. Installation of Siemens Prodave S7 Mini application

Note: This procedure is only valid for the operating systemWindows2000. For WindowsXP, the software package “PRODAVEMPI mini V6.0” has to be installed. The installation is similar to theinstallation for Windows2000. Just follow the instructions displayedon the screen.

For communication between MEB95 (BVR+ software) and Siemenscontrol system (S7 300 PLC) additional hardware and software arerequired. Only vibration tester with Siemens PLC system needs theadditional board in the MEB 95 (CP 5611) and the installation ofProdave S7 Mini software package. The CP 5611 module isequipped with a profibus interface and it is intended for use in PCswith a PCI bus interface to be able to communicate with a Siemens

PLC system. The CP 5611 module can be installed in any free PCIslot in MEB 95A

Note: Software download for any Siemens PLC system is notsupported with this software package. Additional software isrequired, which is not supplied with the MEB 95A.

The software for operating the CP 5611 module is "PRODAVE MPImini V5.5" software package, which has to be installed as follows:

1. Run the program "setup.exe" from disk 1 (see folderSIEMENS_CP5611 on BVR+ installation CD-ROM).2. Select installation language (default English) and click Nextbutton.3. Select the default destination folder(...\Siemens\Prodave_S7_Mini) and click Next button.4. Select installation user defined and click Next button5. Select components as shown in the window below and click theNext button.
