Glossary
Abort Timer
The Fastening cycle aborts if the tool does not shutoff before this pre-selected time.
Acceleration
How fast the controller changes the speed of the tool from 0 (stopped) to the rated
speed.
Accept Tone
Controls the tone made from the handle of handheld QPM tools for accepted Fastening
cycles. Allows distinct tones for tools in adjacent workstations.
ATC
Allows Adaptive Tightening Control modes to be selected, so that consistent torque can
be maintained over a wide range of joints. Manual downshift should be used when:
• High Prevailing Torques – Prevailing Torque > 20% of the Torque Set Point (TSP).
• High Starting Torque –Starting Torque > 20% of TSP.
Batch Count
The number of Fastening cycles required to be within specified limits to complete a
batch. The Run display shows the batch count and number of complete Fastening cycles.
Downshift Mode
Disable: no downshift; Manual: Occurs at specified torque; ATC automatically adapts to
the joint.
Downshift Speed
Once the tool reaches the Downshift Torque point, the controller changes the operating
speed of the tool from the initial Tool Speed to the Downshift Speed.
Downshift Torque
The controller changes the operating speed of the tool from the initial Tool Speed to the
Downshift Speed at the Downshift Torque level.
High Angle
Anytime the peak angle recorded exceeds the High Angle, the Fastening cycle is recorded
as a reject for high angle, the high angle light (red) illuminates and the Fastening cycle is
given an overall status of NOK.
High Torque
Anytime the peak torque recorded exceeds the High Torque, the Fastening cycle is
recorded as a reject for high torque, the high torque light (red) illuminates and the
Fastening cycle is given an overall status of NOK.
Low Angle
Anytime the peak angle recorded during the Angle Audit Step fails to reach the Low
Angle, the Fastening cycle is recorded as a reject for low angle, the low angle light
(yellow) illuminates and the Fastening cycle is given an overall status of NOK.
Low Torque
When the peak torque recorded fails to reach the Low Torque, the Fastening cycle is
recorded as a reject for low torque, the low torque light (yellow) illuminates and the
Fastening cycle is given an overall status of NOK.
MFP Mode
Controls the operation of the multiple-function panel (MFP) on QPM tools.
The choices for handheld tools are Disable, Reverse (Disassembly), Parameter Select,
Arming and Reset Reject. The default value is Disable.
PM Counter
Records the number of Fastening cycles completed since the last time it was reset for
Planned Maintenance.
PM Limit
When the PM Counter exceeds the PM Limit, the controller provides a maintenance alert.
Parameter Set
A Parameter Set is a collection of instructions that define how the tool should perform
the tightening process. It may be selected from the keypad or 24V device such as a
socket tray.
Reject Tone
Controls the tone made from the handle of handheld QPM tools for rejected Fastening
cycles. Allows distinct tones for tools in adjacent workstations.
Slow Seek
Slow Seek helps engage the socket or fastener at a pre-selected speed, torque level and
angular rotation. Once engaged, the Fastening cycle completes at a higher speed. Slow
Seek prevents crossthreaded fasteners and previously secured fasteners from being
counted in a batch.
Snug Torque
The controller begins to monitor the tool for angle at a preselected threshold torque. Any
increase in angle after the snug point results in a corresponding increase in the tension
or clamp load within the joint.
Soft Stop
Soft stop minimizes the torque impulse to the operator during tool shutoff at the end of
the Fastening cycle.
