SONY SIR1000 and PC2xx® Recorder Configuration For MTS Noise and Vibration Software The purpose of this document is to guide users and MTS field staff through the basic configuration of a Sony Precision Technologies recording system intended for Noise and Vibration applications using software from the MTS Noise and Vibration Division. This is intended only as a guide, and not as a procurement specification. Please contact MTS for confirmation and up-todate specifications before ordering, or check out http://www.sonypt.com/ product/data_recording.html for the manufacturer’s data sheets. Step 1 – Mode of Operation
MTS software is used to post process either native I-DEAS ati or binary universal files written by the Sony PCscan software (see figure). The PCscan II software for PC20xxAx recorders writes both native MTS ATI and Binary Universal files to the PC disk. As of the date of this data sheet, the PCscan III software for the SIR1000 series recorders writes binary universal files. In either case, MTS software is used in a post processing mode. Step 2 – Mainframe, Channel Count and Signal Conditioning Options
The 204 and 208 are the same mainframe case. The SIR1000 series recorders use the same case with 1000i and 1000W mainframes incorporating a bottom-mounted module. Determine total number of mainframes required based on total channel count. The SIR 1000 supports up to 128 total channels when (7) SCX-32 expansion units are connected.

Step 3 – Signal Conditioning Options
During the transfer to MTS-compatible data files, most common engineering noise and vibration units types are supported automatically. However, some manual adjustment of qualifiers may be required after import of the time files, depending on how carefully the data was qualified during the recording session and in the Sony PCScan software. In a worst case with no prequalification, MTS software will accept the data and continue to operate normally and perform signal processing of the time files, however the data will of course be uncalibrated. And MTS software can easily be automated to minimize the amount of manual effort required.

Step 4 – Confirm Storage Capacity
Native I-DEAS files and binary universal files are stored on the PC disk in 4-byte floating point precision for each sampled time data point. To compute the total required PC disk storage capacity, (Channels) x (sample rate per channel) x 4/1,000,000 = Approximate Mbytes PC disk storage required. Use Windows Explorer to check for free disk space to confirm that you have the required storage capacity in bytes before commencing data transfer.
m Step 5 – Connection to PC from PC scan II or III software
Communication between these Sony instruments and the PC is via PCI ADAPTEC AHA-2940UW SCSI host adapter. Follow the Sony installation instructions. The PCscan software writes time files that MTS software can read. There are no direct, live communications between MTS software and the recorders. Step 6 – Power and Accessories
AC, DC (12V), and Internal battery standard.
SIR1000 Options
MTS software lets you take data transferred from the recorder via Sony's PC Scan software, and perform high-resolution data analyses like this color waterfall.
