Width and Offset
For multiple bit outputs (for example “Running PSet Number”) the width variable defines the number of
bits the assignment will output. This allows the output size to be restricted to a few bits saving space for
other assignments.
The offset variable allows a fixed value to be added to the value before it is output.
For example to use bits 4 & 5 of the physical outputs to indicate the selected parameter set number 1-4
as binary 0-3 the assignment would look like…
Running PSet Number
Bus
1
For the physical bus
Element
0
For the first element on the bus
Bit
4
For the starting bit location
Width
2
To span the two bits 4 & 5
Offset
-1
Adding -1 to the read input value so we get…
1 = Binary 00
2 = Binary 01
3 = Binary 10
4 = Binary 11

The “Ok” output assignment will go active at the completion of an acceptable fastening. It will go
inactive when the next fastening is started (the torque exceeds the threshold value) or a Job reset.
