✍️Prompt Instructions for Effective Outcomes

Prompt instructions are crucial for optimizing the performance of spiderAI™. While spiderAI™ leverages Large Language Models (LLMs) for enhanced diagnostics, it relies heavily on context and the quality of input data to generate precise and actionable recommendations. By providing clear, complete, and structured inputs, field engineers can enhance diagnostic accuracy, improve context awareness, facilitate better communication, speed up decision-making, and enable in-depth reasoning. Here are a few prompting best practices to follow when using spiderAI™:

1. Provide Complete Machine Details

Ensure to include all relevant machine specifications, drive train configuration, mounting details, and operational observations. For detailed instructions, refer to the previous page, "User Input Information for vibration analysis."

2. Give Inputs in Orders

Provide frequency observations in a systematic order related to the machine's rotating speed. For detailed instructions, refer to the previous page, "User Input Information for vibration analysis."

3. Request Specific Faults

When you have a specific fault in mind, ask spiderAI™ directly for a precise diagnosis of that fault.

Example:

User: Given the vibration data, can you check for unbalance issues specifically?

4. Request Possible Faults

If uncertain about the exact fault, ask spiderAI™ for a group of potential faults to get a broader analysis.

Example:

User: Based on the provided vibration and phase data, what are the possible faults?

5. Include Phase Analysis

Providing phase angle data can significantly enhance the diagnostic accuracy, especially for identifying unbalance and misalignment issues.

Example:

Phase Analysis with Sensor Position:
- Motor NDE: Horizontal to Vertical phase difference is 0 degrees.
- Motor DE: Vertical to Axial phase difference is 180 degrees.
- Pump Driver End: Axial to Motor DE Horizontal phase difference is 90 degrees.

6. Clarify Doubtful Situations

If you're unsure about the data provided or the diagnosis, ask spiderAI™ for clarification.

Example:

User: The diagnosis suggests both unbalance and misalignment. Can you clarify which fault is more critical based on the provided data?

7. Seek More Details

Ask SpiderAI™ for more detailed analysis or further data requirements if the initial diagnosis is inconclusive.

Example:

User: The phase difference data is significant. What additional phase measurements would help confirm the exact fault?

8. Ask for Additional Information

Inquire what additional data might help in refining the diagnosis, such as high-resolution spectrum or phase data.

Example:

User: I have provided the initial vibration data. What additional information (like spectrum or phase data) would help you get closer to identifying the fault?

SpiderAI™ Response:

To refine the diagnosis, I need the following additional information:
- High-Resolution Spectrum Analysis: Detailed frequency spectrum to check for sidebands around the synchronous frequency.
- Phase Analysis: Phase difference between different measurement points, especially across the coupling and between horizontal and vertical positions.

9. Request Detailed Reasoning and Evidence

For a clear understanding of the diagnosis, ask SpiderAI™ for detailed reasoning and evidence supporting the conclusion.

Example:

User: Can you provide detailed reasoning and evidence for diagnosing unbalance based on the provided data?

SpiderAI™ Response:

The unbalance diagnosis is based on the following evidence:
- High vibration amplitude at the 1X RPM frequency in multiple directions.
- Consistent phase readings across horizontal and vertical measurements.
- No significant indications of other faults such as misalignment or looseness, based on the observed vibration patterns.

10. Include Doubts or Additional Machine Details

If you have any doubts or additional machine details to be considered, include them in the prompt. This helps in providing context and refining the analysis.

Example:

User: The machine also experienced a sudden increase in load recently. Can this be factored into the analysis?

By following these prompting best practices, you can ensure SpiderAI™ provides precise and actionable recommendations, enhancing your diagnostic and decision-making processes.
