Target Editor 

 

When making a new target, the editor is designed to guide you through the steps needed to set up your target.  

 

When you first open the screen, most of the options will be hidden. First you will need to select a target type 

(force, pressure or torque) followed by the desired units and whether angle is required. After that the 

remaining options will unlock. If you are editing an existing target, all options will already be unlocked. 

 

Shown below is the full editor layout; to access all options, use your finger to scroll up or down. Note that your 

screen will look a little different depending on your target type and whether angle is involved. 

 

For example, if no angle is required then the angle target and angle trigger source fields will be hidden. Also, if 

you change the target type, all references to “Torque” will change to match, i.e. “Pressure Target” and “Stop 

Pressure”. 

 

See Example 1 (Page 37) - Click Wrench Torque Measurement 

 

TIP:  You may need to scroll this screen to see the full list of settings 

 

Select Unit

 

 This will set the units of measurement for 

this target. Available units will change 

depending on target type (Torque, 

Pressure or Force) 

 

Torque Only

 

 This will set a Torque only target (no 

angle) 

 

Torque Then Angle

 

This will set a Torque then angle target 

 

Name

 

 The name for this target in the target list 

 

Direction

 

 You can select Clockwise, Counter 

Clockwise or both directions for the target 

 

Qty of Readings

 

 This is how many readings you want to 

take with this target 

 

Stop

 

Torque

 

If you want the Ancillary port Stop Torque 

output to activate at a certain value, set 

the desired transducer reading at which 

the ancillary port Stop signal is asserted 

 

Torque

 

Target

 

This is the target torque. 

 

 

Lower/Upper Limit

 

Set the allowable range for a “pass” on 

the target value. 

 

Rate

 

Control

 

Specify an ISO 6789:2017 rate of 

application of torque. The Measurement 

Screen dial will guide you through the 

cycle to help meet the timings when the 

cycle begins. 

 

Direction

 

The direction of the angle measurement 

can be set to either Clockwise, Counter-

Clockwise or Both 

 

Angle Target

 

 This is the target value for the angle in 

degrees 

 

Lower Deviation

 

 This is the allowed deviation below the 

target angle in degrees. 

 

Upper

 

Deviation

 

This is the allowed deviation above the 

target angle in degrees.
