Vibrate 5.1 Software for Windows XP through Windows 10

Two tools are needed to effectively use Vibrate 5.1
  1. An engine RPM measuring device such as one of the following:
    • An engine tachometer in the automobile or truck.
    • An automobile scan-tool to read engine RPM from the engine data list.  There are several aftermarket and vehicle manufacturer PC USB based scan tools available for anyone to purchase.
  2. A vibration frequency and amplitude measuring device such as:
    • The  J-38792 (old number), or J-38792-A  or CH-38792 Electronic Vibration Analyzer (EVA-2)**. Watch this HD video about using the EVA with Vibrate 5.1
 
  • A Briggs & Stratton Syrometer/tachometer part number 19200. 
    • This tool is difficult to use and limited in it’s frequency range, but it is less than $40.00 US.  It can be ordered from Briggs & Stratton.  Simply turn the dial to the expected vibration frequency and wait for the wire to vibrate.  If it does vibrate, you have a frequency match.

  • Any equivalent device that will read vibration frequency and amplitude.
The following tools have been discontinued, but can be found on eBay and other online sellers of used tools.
  • The 014-00344  Electronic Vibration Analyzer (EVA)*.
  • The OTC OT38793 (old number) or J-38792-A Electronic Vibration Analyzer (EVA)***.
  • The Bosch (Formerly Vetronix) MTS 4100 Noise, Vibration and Harshness Analyzer ****
