What Is Bently Nevada 3500/02 129132-01?
The Bently Nevada 3500/02 129132-01 is associated with the Data Acquisition / DDE Server function of the 3500 Machinery Protection System.
Its primary role is to provide a computer-side connection between the host computer and one or more configured 3500 Monitor Racks. The original 3500 documentation describes the software as a link to the 3500 Monitor Rack and identifies functions including machinery monitoring data collection, trend-data storage, and DDE service for current machinery monitoring values.
This makes the software relevant to industrial plants where information generated by a 3500 machinery protection system needs to be collected by a PC and made available to other monitoring or automation applications.
Main Functions
Data Acquisition
The software collects machinery monitoring information from configured 3500 Monitor Racks.
Depending on the installed 3500 configuration, collected information can include:
Machinery monitoring values
Alarm information
Event information
Channel data
Real-time trend information
Historical trend information
Monitor-related status information
Historical Data Storage
The Data Acquisition software can store applicable trend information from machinery monitoring channels.
This allows the host computer to maintain historical information that can later be used for:
Machinery trend review
Condition monitoring
Historical comparison
Maintenance analysis
Data archiving
DDE Server
The DDE function allows current machinery monitoring data to be made available to compatible external software.
Technical Specifications
- Supported operating systems: Windows 7, Windows 8, Windows 10
- Supported Bently Nevada 3500 Series systems: 3500/02, 3500/03, 3500/04
