Vibration spectra window enhancement
While monitoring the condition of a machine, vibration data is often collected for analysis by an experienced analyst. Systems and methods for analyzing vibration spectra associated with machine condition monitoring are disclosed herein. A system may be configured to collect vibration data from one or more vibration sensors, generate a vibration spectrum of the vibration data, and generate a spectral plot of the vibration spectrum. The system may receive a selection of a region of the spectral plot and generate a modifiable window of the vibration spectrum that is embedded within the spectral plot. The system may display a set of graphing tools along with the modifiable window that enable a user to make modifications to the window. The system may detect the modifications and update the modifiable window accordingly.
