4. Product Introduction (Anti-Template)
When a critical machine needs continuous vibration and process data acquisition inside a VM600 rack, the CMC16 serves as the intelligent front-end. It provides 16 parallel dynamic channels that can be configured for acceleration, velocity, displacement, dynamic pressure, or quasi-static process signals. Up to four channels can act as tachometer inputs for phase and speed reference.
On-board processing performs high-resolution FFT analysis (up to 3200 lines), extracts configurable frequency bands or time-domain values, applies alarms with hysteresis, and supports scheduled or event-based logging. Data is transferred to the host via the VM600 CPU-M module. The card is hot-swappable within the VME architecture and was the core of the earlier VM600 CMS before the platform transitioned to the XMV16 / VibroSight generation.

5. QC, Procurement & Logistics SOP
- Inbound Verification – Confirm full markings (CMC16, 200-530-025-014, 200-530-111-013 or equivalent), front-panel LED function, connector condition, and any revision labels. Photograph all identifiers.
- Live Rig Testing – Install in a compatible VM600 rack with matching IOC16T (if required), power up, verify channel configuration, basic signal acquisition, FFT generation, and communication with the CPU-M module.
- QA & Anti-Static Packaging – After functional pass, protect edge connectors, clean the card, and seal in anti-static shielding with desiccant and humidity indicator.
- Global Logistics & Export Compliance – Classify under the correct HS code for industrial monitoring electronics. Packaging is rated for air and sea freight vibration; export documentation is prepared to minimize customs delays.
6. Technical Pitfalls & Integration Warnings
IOC16T Pairing Requirement – The CMC16 is normally used as a card pair with the IOC16T input/output card. Operating without the correct companion card limits or prevents proper signal interfacing.
Legacy System Compatibility – The CMC16 belongs to the older CMS software generation (discontinued after 2014). Mixing with newer XMV16 / VibroSight hardware or software requires careful validation and is often not supported.
Channel Configuration Errors – Incorrect assignment of tacho versus dynamic or process channels leads to missing phase reference or invalid measurements. Always verify configuration against the machine’s sensor layout.
Hot-Swap Procedure – Although live insertion is supported, improper sequencing or rack power state can cause configuration loss or temporary data interruption. Follow the official VM600 maintenance procedure.
7. Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
What is the realistic global lead time for a verified CMC16?
As a legacy product, availability depends on surplus stock. Typical lead time after verification is 3–10 business days plus standard air freight.
How many channels does the CMC16 provide?
16 individually configurable dynamic channels. The first 4 can be set as tacho inputs; the last 12 can be used as process-value inputs.
What is the typical companion card?
IOC16T (Input/Output Card). The two cards normally operate as a pair in the rack.
Is the still in production?
No. Vibro-Meter officially replaced the / CMS solution with the XMV16 / VibroSight platform around 2013–2014. Remaining units are surplus or refurbished.
What analysis capability does it offer?
High-resolution FFT up to 3200 lines, configurable frequency bands, time-domain processing, and multiple alarms per channel.
Can it be used in a modern rack with XMV16 cards?
Not recommended. The architectures and software platforms are different; mixing generations usually requires a full system migration strategy.
What form factor does it use?
Standard 6U VME card for installation in series racks (ABE04x or equivalent).
