Hi guys,

Have been performing the 4 run method for a while now. Works well enough with a vibration meter. The balance weight location works fantastic. However I find that the weight required according to the method is often incorrect (typically lower than required). What am I doing wrong?

Is there a way to improve on this?

thanks

Unlikely, because the same windowing is applied to the initial run as well, unless a madman is performing the test.

I checked out Octave looks quite complicated. I like DasyLab for its simple GUI (don't like the price though). I've seen SigView which looks great and cheap too.... but can't compile it to run as a stand alone.
