Introduction to profiles

What is a profile?

Measurement profiles define how and when a Treon Industrial Node X measures data.

They ensure that vibration, temperature, and other condition-monitoring data is collected in a way that is relevant, reliable, and battery‑efficient for each asset.

A profile combines timers, triggers, measurement settings, and calculations into a single configuration. By selecting the right profile, you control what data is measured (for example KPIs, FFTs, or waveforms), how frequently measurements are taken, and how the results are processed and sent to Treon Connect.

Treon devices come with default profiles optimized for common industrial use cases, offering a good balance between data quality and optimized battery life. These profiles can be adjusted to better match different machine types, operating speeds, and duty cycles—ensuring meaningful diagnostics while avoiding unnecessary measurements.

Default profile

The Treon Industrial Node X sensors have a default profile optimized for general use.

It includes hourly KPIs such as Velocity and Acceleration RMS, with more detailed FFT information measured every 6 hours. This ensures frequent measurements for automated alerts using KPIs, while still retaining enough FFT data for human evaluation when needed.

To understand the profile, it is easiest to start with the timers, then review which measurements they trigger, and finally see which calculations are triggered by those measurements.
