LORD QUICK START GUIDE
SHM-Link-201
Ruggedized Wireless Structural Health Monitoring Node
NODE OVERVIEW
The SHM- Link- 201 structural health monitoring node is used for in- situ,
multidimensional measurement and analysis of component strain and fatigue.
The SHM-Link-201 has three input channels and is designed to integrate with
field-installed strain gauge rosettes.
The SHM-Link-201 embedded processing algorithms provide sophisticated data
outputs, including damage estimations using user- configurable strain number
curves, estimations along various user-configurable angles, and an ASTM e1049
rainflow- counting histogram output. Sampling modes include continuous and
activity-sense. The SHM-Link-201 is designed for extended use with a lithium
battery.
To acquire sensor data, the SHM-Link-201 is used with any LORD Sensing data
gateway, such as the WSDA® -Base -10 x -LXRS®, or the network-ready WSDA® 1500 - LXRS ® . The SensorConnect software interface is used for node
configuration, and SensorCloud™ is available for advanced data visualization,
aggregation, and analysis. Users can also build custom software interfaces with
the MicroStrain Communications Library (MSCL).

NODE DEPLOYMENT
The SHM-Link-201 is designed for use with the provided bonding cable. The
cable connects the node and strain gauges in a way that allows the gauges to fit
underneath the node in the strain gauge cavity, protected from damage. The
strain gauge cavity can also be sealed after installation. The following procedure
outlines this process. These steps may not be necessary for all applications but
provide the best protection for the node circuitry and the gauges.
Install the Node Battery
The SHM-Link-201 operates on an internal
AA-type battery with a voltage between 1 V
dc and 5 V dc. Use only batteries that meet
this specification. Do not short circuit, crush,
puncture, or otherwise misuse the battery.
Disposal is subject to federal and local laws.
Wireless Sensor Node Quick Start Guide
1. Remove the SHM-Link-201 battery compartment cap.
2. Position a pliers or a hook-ended tool behind the battery tray screw-head.
Pull firmly outward, or leverage the edge of the housing, to release the
tray from the terminals inside. It should unseat and slide out.
Figure 3 - Battery Compartment Assembly
3. Apply dielectric grease to the battery tray terminals.
4. Install the battery.
Test Fit Node and Gauge Assembly
7. Determine the location of the component to be monitored where the strain
gauges will be installed.
8. Place the bonding cable and node in the chosen location to verify gauge
placement and that there is space for the node to fit over the top of them.
The gauges are installed in the cable cutout, and the node strain gauge
cavity fits over the gauges and cable.
Figure 4 - Gauge and Node Location
Install Strain Gauges
NOTE
5. Firmly re-seat the battery tray in the battery compartment
6. Install the compartment cap, ensuring the o-ring remains intact and properly seated.
For accurate fatigue data, strain gauge installation must be completed in
compliance with strain gauge manufacturer recommendations and
industry standard processes such as ASTM E1237-93, Standard Guide
for Installing Bonded Resistance Strain Gauges . Failure to properly
attach and connect the gauges will result in erroneous data.
Wireless Sensor Node Quick Start Guide
9. Wire the strain gauges to the bonding cable so that the strain gauge
assembly will be positioned in the central cutout .
10. Bond the cable and strain gauges onto the surface of the component to be
monitored with strain gauge adhesive or equivalent. Install the gauges in
the desired orientation for measurement and in accordance with the strain
gauge manufacturers installation instructions.
13. Test the strain gauage installation and basic node functioning by performing an auto-calibration in SensorConnect (See Calibrate the Node on
page 7).
Figure 6 - Connecting to the Node
Install and Seal the Node
14. Remove the node battery or put it in sleep mode (to conserve battery life).
Verify the node power switch is in the ON position. Once the node is
sealed, the access door will no longer open.
Figure 5 - Strain Gauge Wiring
Connect Node to Strain Gauges and Test
11. Connect the node to the strain gauge assembly. Attach the bonding cable
to one of the node connectors in the orientation shown. Two are provided
for node positioning convenience and have identical pins. The cable
should lay flat against the bottom of the node circuit board and wrap up
the edge of it to plug into the connecter.
12. Place the node over the strain gauge assembly and verify the strain
gauge cavity covers the strain gauge assembly without damaging it.
15. Close the node interface access door and remove the installation tape
backing from the bottom of the node. Adhere the node in place over the
gauges.
16. Apply a high-strength adhesive sealant (such as Sikaflex® 255 FC or equivalent) around the perimeter of the node where it meets the component
surface.
17. Remove the set screws from the sealant injection hole, and fill the strain
gauge cavity with a flexible, injectable sealant (such as Self-Levling
Green, or equivalent). Avoid over-filling the sealant and allowing it to leak
into other cavities (such as the battery compartment and under the access
door). This is more likely to happen if the node is mounted vertically.

Make System Connections
To acquire sensor data, the SHM-Link-201 is used with a LORD Sensing data
gateway such as the WSDA ®-200-USB or WSDA ® -1500 - LXRS ®. Connect the
gateway to the computer or network and to a power source as required. Refer to
the gateway user manual for more information.

selected, the device name is highlighted, and the corresponding menu displayed.
Menu options vary between devices but typically include device configuration,
start sampling, sensor mode selections, and data downloading. Click on the
device name (in the devices list) to get back to the main device menu.
Add Device - Manually add a device if it does not appear automatically. .
Notifications and indicators - information specific to a device, or in response to a
requested action, appears next to the applicable device name in the device list, or
in the device menu. These notifications provide information about device
performance, such as communication and sampling status. Green typically
indicates confirmed actions, while orange indicates information that may require
further action. Blue indicates they are currently sampling.
Configure the Node
Power settings, some sampling settings, data output options, and gauge settings
specific to the SHM- Link- 201 are adjustable through the Configure menu. All
other settings are adjusted when sampling is started. Click Apply to save
changed settings.
Figure 12 - Configure Menu
Hardware - Set the strain gauge provided by the gauge manufacturer.
Fatigue - Select from data output options that produce fatigue measurements.
Histogram - Set the rainflow-counting bin thresholds and data transmit rate. Data
will still be collected at the rate set in the Start Sampling menu.
Activity Sense - Activity sense mode is power- saving mode. When enabled,
sampling will only occur when movement is detected by the internal
accelerometer. Sampling will occur at the rate set in the Start Sampling menu
until the (also configurable) inactivity period has passed.
Power - Set the node transmit power, radio-check interval (when the node goes
into sleep mode), and the inactivity timeout.
Calibrate the Node
Calibration of the SHM- Link- 201 is done through an internal circuit. With the
strain gauges connected, simply open the Auto-Calibrate menu, and select the
Calibrate button. This will calibrate all three channels automatically. If the gauges
are connected correctly, and the calibration is completed, "Success" will be
indicated in the status column. Otherwise it will indicate the sensor is detached.

IMPORTANT: Auto- calibration must be
performed anytime sampling settings
are changed.
Start Sampling
Data sampling is initiated for each device through its device menu. For a wireless
sensor network, sampling can also be started for the entire network by initiating
sampling from the network gateway menu. The sampling menu options vary
depending on the type of device.
Collected data is viewed on the Data page through the creation of dashboards
and widgets. Think of dashboards as individual pages and widgets as an
illustration on the page. Create multiple data widgets on each dashboard to
display sampled data as a time-series graph, text chart, or a simple gauge that
only displays the most current reading.
This format provides an easy way to organize many sensors and networks, and it
allows the information to be displayed in the most appropriate layout.
