Inputs
Description
Bit: Type the number of this bit, in the binary number scheme, to select tasks.
Mode: All TASK SELECT BITs must be the same mode, no mixing of modes allowed.
Binary – Creates a decimal number equivalent to the weighted value of this binary bit(s).
Binary + 1 – Creates a number equivalent to the weighted value of this binary bit(s) and adds
the value of one (1) to that number.
Spindle: Spindle: Type the spindle number in which the task is to be selected.
SET ZERO
When asserted, on any Input type, the Zero Position for the tool is set. This Zero Position is
POSITION
used in the Position Control strategy to stop the tool at the Zero Position after meeting the
Snug Torque value.
Size: 1 bit
Contact Type: Normally Open (N.O.), Normally Closed (N.C.)
Spindle: Type the spindle number in which the Zero Positions is to be set.
START
When asserted, on any input type, the tool starts and runs the currently selected job/task. This
input is overridden by the STOP input. If STOP is used and a tool restart is required, remove
the STOP, remove the START, then re-assert the START. If the tool is required to operate in
Disassembly mode, remove the START, assert the REVERSE input, and then re-assert the
START.
When removed, from any bus of Input, the tool stops. Even if a second START input is active,
the tool stops when any START is removed.
Size: 1 bit
Contact Type: Normally Open (N.O.), Normally Closed (N.C.)
Latch: This is applicable to external inputs only. This is not applicable to the trigger on the tool
handle.
Yes – Causes the START input to latch internally after a time period has elapsed. The
physical START input can be removed without stopping the tool. The tool runs until all steps in
the active task are complete or time out.
A TIME parameter is available to set how long the START input must be applied, in seconds,
before the Latch becomes active.
No – The Latch function is off.
Spindle: Type the spindle number for tool to be started.
START
When asserted on any input bus, the tool mode is switched to Reverse (Disassembly) AND
REVERSE
the tool is started. This is different from the REVERSE input function in that REVERSE puts
the tool into Reverse mode only.
When removed the tool stops and switches back to Forward mode.
Size: 1 bit
Contact Type: Normally Open (N.O.), Normally Closed (N.C.)
Spindle: Type the spindle number for tool to be reversed.
STOP
When asserted, on any input type, the controller stops the tool. It also prevents the tool from
running while it is applied.
When removed, tool is allowed to run.
Size: 1 bit
Contact Type: Normally Open (N.O.), Normally Closed (N.C.)
Spindle: Type the spindle number for tool to be stopped.
TASK VERIFY When asserted on any input bus, the controller verifies the selected and active task is equal to
this input's task. Use the TASK parameter to select the task number to verify. If the wrong task
is selected the tool is disabled.
When removed, verification will not happen.
Size: 1 bit
Contact Type: Normally Open (N.O.), Normally Closed (N.C.)
