PC1000i Crimper – Operator Manual
PC1000i Crimper with CrimpIQ™ Controller
Maintenance Mode
This machine keeps track of a number of different periodic maintenance tasks. Tasks are based on machine model.
Maintenance tasks are either triggered by the number of crimps or the number of days since the last maintenance.
Tasks include: Check Hydraulic Oil, Grease the Crimper, Perform Self Calibration and Data Synchronization. Most of these are
self-explanatory with the exception of Data Synchronization (update crimp specification, check for application updates and
sync data with the CrimpCloud®).
Notes:
• When a maintenance event is triggered (by crimp count or date), the user gets a popup indicating that the maintenance
needs to be performed. To limit interference with operations, tasks can be delayed until a later date (Snoozed).
• Maintenance tasks are either triggered by the number of crimps or the number of days since the last maintenance, based
on the requirements of the task.
• Users can come to this Maintenance Mode screen and perform maintenance tasks or wait for the popup alert.
• Recording a maintenance task provides the user with an opportunity to add notes. The logged in user and date/time are
recorded along with the maintenance task.
• A complete history of maintenance performed is also available via the History button on the Maintenance Mode screen.
Setting Up an Internet Connection

operation but is beneficial. This section describes how to configure different types of Internet connections and verify these
connections are working.
Using an Ethernet Connection
Plug the Ethernet cable into the base of the controller. The tablet will take a few moments to configure the connection.
Once successful, the connectivity status will turn green.
