High Torque
When peak torque recorded exceeds the High Torque, the
fastening cycle is recorded as a reject for High Torque, the High
Torque light (flashing red) illuminates and fastening cycle is
given an overall status of NOK.
Job
A Job is a collection of Psets or Multi-stages, which are useful when
performing several multiple fastening operations, each with
different requirements. This is convenient since the operator does
not have to select a new Pset or Multistage for every fastening
.
Low Angle
When the peak angle recorded during the Angle Audit Step
fails to reach the Low Angle, fastening cycle is recorded as a
reject for Low Angle, the low angle light (flashing yellow)
illuminates and fastening cycle is given an overall status of NOK.
Low Torque
When the peak torque recorded fails to reach the Low Torque,
fastening cycle is recorded as a reject for Low Torque, the Low
Torque light (flashing red) illuminates and fastening cycle is given an
overall status of NOK.

Multi-stage
In some instances it is necessary to perform a fastening in several
stages. This requires specific fastening strategies. Multi-stage
allows user to create linear sequences up to 256 Psets to perform
a fastening divided into stages.
Parameter Set
A Parameter Set is a collection of instructions that define how the
tool should perform the fastening process. It may be selected from
the console or device such as a socket tray or PC
Snug Torque
Controller begins to monitor tool for angle at a preselected
threshold torque. Any increase in angle, after the snug point,
results in a corresponding increase in tension or clamp load within
the joint.
Speed
Speed at which tool operates during the initial portion of the
fastening cycle prior to downshift.
Spindle
A spindle represents a connection to a handheld, or fixtured,
tool connected to a controller.
Strategy
Identifies the variables being used to control tool during a
fastening cycle.
Thread Direction
Sets assembly direction to clockwise (CW) or counter clockwise
(CCW).
Threshold Torque
Sets point at which tool is "In Cycle".
Torque Calibration
Determines how torque values are assigned to the electrical
signals for torque transducer on tool. Value is unique to each tool
and changes over time.
Torque Target
When the tool is being controlled for torque, the torque target
instructs controller when to shutoff tool. Torque target should be
greater than Low Torque and less than High Torque, this is required
for torque control.
