BARCODE /
PRINTER
The port performs both functions at the same time.
Barcode: The port reads input from a barcode scanner and places it into the PART ID
buffer. Data in the PART ID buffer is added to the fastening cycle data when stored and
transmitted via a network protocol or printed.
Print: A pre-defined data string is sent out the port after each fastening cycle that
exceeds the Threshold Torque. See section “6.4 Serial Connector” on page 113 for string
definitions.
Baudrate The data transmission rate in bits/second for communication.
Parity Used to determine if data was lost or compromised during transfer.
TOYOTA PI Connects this port to the Toyota PI box.
PFCS Connects this port to the Chrysler network.
OPEN
Connects this port to a network using the OPEN protocol with serial messaging.
PLC
The internal PLC takes over communications on this port. Baud rate and Parity of the
Serial port may be changed for PLC communications. Set these values according to the
requirements of the end user.
Baudrate The data transmission rate in bits/second for communication.
Parity
Used to determine if data was lost or compromised during transfer.
Use the right arrow to move to the next tab or press EXIT to save the changes and return to the Run screen. See
section “3.1.2.6 Exit” on page 52.
3.1.3.4 PFCS Tab
The plant’s System group must provide these values to allow the Alpha controller to communicate on the PFCS
or NPL network. If using the NPL network there is a setup per spindle, even in a multiple. Be sure to select each
spindle that needs to report to the NPL and setup these parameters.
