BC2 Programming Instructions 

 

BC2 tools feature a built in Screw Counter and a Pulse System. The Pulse System is a 
mechanism using an electronic signal (Pulse) that occurs during motor revolutions. By 
installing several fasteners into the assembly the driver learns the number of motor 
revolutions required to correctly tighten the fasteners to the desired torque. The driver 
then establishes a minimum and maximum number of revolutions for an acceptable 
fastener and displays the results using the RED and GREEN LEDs on the display. 

 

The visual display and audible signals combine to alert the operator to the screw count 
status and will prevent missed or improperly driven fasteners. BC2 tools also feature 
an optional I/O capability which when combined with a PLC can provide full process 
control

.  

 

User Interface Display and Button Functions 

 

The BC2 interface will show numbers, letters or symbols, depending what mode the 
system is in. It also contains 

red “FAIL” LED, a green “PASS” LED and 3 programing 

buttons, F1, F2 & F3 complete the BC2 tool interface. 

 

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

 
 
 
1. Screw Count and Value Setting Display Section

 

 

  The batch count is set and the screw count is displayed when the counter 

function is ON. After starting the assembly the number of fasteners remaining is 
displayed. The count decreases with each fastener properly installed. 

  The numbers for setting the various functions appear here when that function is 

being set. 

 

2.

 

Function Display Section 

 

  The symbols corresponding to the functions are displayed while in Set Up Mode
