First Claim
Patent Images
1. A measuring system, comprising:
- a sensor positioned near a belt to measure an oscillation or vibration of the belt based at least in part on a trigger threshold; and
a diagnostic tool coupled the sensor to receive a plurality of the measurements of the oscillation or vibration of the belt, wherein the diagnostic tool determines a tension of the belt based at least in part on an average of the plurality of measurements of the oscillation or vibration of the belt.
