PC1000i Crimper – Operator Manual
PC1000i Crimper with CrimpIQ™ Controller
Managing Users
The crimper comes configured with three user accounts but Administrators have the option to setup additional users.
Additional users can be useful to track what each user/admin is doing on the machine. Information on the default users is
available in the Key User Information.
This setup screen allow Administrators to create new users and edit existing users.
Edit User:
User name, 4 digit passcode and user type can be changed with this menu.
This is where an Administrator would reset the pin for a user who has forgotten their pin.
Create New User:
Enter the user name, 4 digit passcode and user type to create a new user.
The CrimpIQ
™
controller has been configured with multiple user types. Each type has different capabilities within the crimper.
The goal is to provide users with all the privileges they require to do their tasks but no more.
Machine Admin:
This is the highest privilege user type that can be configured. This user type can change all machine
settings, access all support information and perform all crimp operations.
Machine Tech:
This type has privileges to maintain the machine but cannot perform crimping tasks.
Supervisor:
This type has privileges to monitor machine operations but cannot perform maintenance tasks.
Machine User:
This type has privileges to use the machine, perform all crimping related tasks and has limited ability
to change machine configuration.
Self-Calibration Mode
Self-calibration is a built-in test that verifies the accuracy of the crimper is within tolerance of its initial factory setup. If the test
fails (out of tolerance), a warning message is displayed showing the difference from its initial set point.
To run the test, follow the instructions on the screen. At a high level, the test flows as follows:
• Load dies into the crimper (any standard hydraulic dies work). Make sure the crimp head is at least 1/3 open.
• Begin the self-calibration mode. This will prompt the user the press the Close button. The test then runs
automatically and returns a success/failure result.
