reverse switch is active.
Backoff speed parame-
ter is set to 0 rpm.
¾
Adjust the backoff speed value in the
Standard
Application Builder
screen of the controller.
Tool light not active.
Deactivated by param-
eter setting.
¾
Adjust the parameter for
Tool light
in the

screen of the controller.
Operating menu of tool
not, or only partly,
enabled.
Disabled by parameter
setting.
¾
Activate the

Advanced Application Builder/System Set-
tings
screen of the controller.
Free speed parameter
value is not reached.
Battery voltage is too
low.
¾
Use a fully charged battery.
Could not reach the
expected number of
rundowns with one
battery charge.
Battery is not fully
charged.
¾
Use only fully charged batteries.
Low voltage warning is
not set to minimum
value.
¾
In the
Tool Setup
screen of the controller, set
the value for L
ow Level
to 17.5 Volts.
During tightening
sequence, high torque
is required, for example
with coated screws.
¾
If high torque is required for a longer period of
time, e.g. for several turns, then the number of
rundowns with one battery charge is signifi-
cantly reduced.
Battery has already
cycled too often.
¾
After 500 charge cycles the capacity is reduced
to about 80%.
Problem
Possible cause
Action
Infrared data communication between controller and tool
No infrared data
communication
between controller and
tool.
Wrong port is selected
for connection with the
controller.
¾
Check the port settings for infrared (IRDA)
communication in the
Communication/Tool
screen of the controller.
Note:
If the settings are changed, it is necessary
to press
Accept
<F1> in order to apply the set-
tings.
¾
Check that the tool holder is connected to
selected port.
Selected port is used
for serial data transmis-
sion.
¾
In the
Communication/Data
Transmission
screen of the controller, check whether serial
data transmission is enabled (the protocol is
set to anything except NONE), and whether
the same port is being used. If so, select a dif-
ferent port or disable serial data transmission.
Check all available tools as necessary. The
same port cannot be used for serial data trans-
mission and infrared data communication with
the tool.
