Thank you Gustavo, it seems that the "pilotos" are to warn if there are any problems while the machines are in use.

Explanation:
There is no need to state (in this context) in your questions, as that is always the case.

Vibration monitoring devices use accelerometers to measure changes in amplitude, frequency, and intensity of forces that damage rotating equipment. Studying vibration measurements allows teams to discover imbalance, looseness, misalignment, or bearing wear in equipment prior to failure.

neutral  Jennifer Levey: You have quoted the same source (Fluke) that I posted in my answer. The ST says pilotos de los detectores, where 'detector' is synonymous with 'sensor' in both ES and EN, so the piloto must be something else.

Explanation:
Can't be sure without more context (in particular, the type of vibration detector - see https://www.fluke.com/en/learn/blog/vibration/top-5-industri... for a list of 7 categories of vibration sensors), but it is quite possible that the piloto is a software driver that transfers data from the detector to the system control/monitoring software.

@Eileen: The piloto is associated primarily with the vibration detector/sensor, not with the type/size/'natural frequency' or other features of the machine it is monitoring. That's why I pointed you to a description of 7 types of sensor/detectors, in the hope that you could identify which is relevant to your ST. With the benefit of that info, we can better judge whether the piloto is, as I suggested, a software driver.

Asker: It's a very big machine with a conveyor belt to move products from one place to another if that helps at all Jennifer

Asker: This is the website with the Natural Frequency Conveyor machines but I can't find any words referring to "pilotos" or anything similar in English https://www.eralki.com/en/equipments/natural-frequency-conveyors/ I don't know if that is because it refers to Natural Frequency

Asker: iI sent the link to the machines that are being produced to try and help understand the meaning of "piloto" I don't know any other way to help, I'm sorry.

un piloto en este contexto es una luz que avisa, se llama tb pilot light y creo que LED vale bien para el caso o si no, indicator light

NO lo llamaría simplemente light/luz porque, aunque sea un dispositivo luminoso, se trata de un indicador, una señal o un aviso, habitualmente de que el aparato está encendido o, en este caso, de que los detectores funcionan. Normalmente son de color rojo o también verde o azul
