Setup

The following functions can be accessed before placing
the diode holder on the tool to be tested:
Choose language: Press the ON key. When the serial
number of the PG1 is displayed, press and hold ↓
until the language choices appear on the display. Use
↑ and ↓ to select "German" or "English". Press √ to
confirm the selection.
Adjust contrast: Press the ON key. When the serial
number of the PG1 is displayed, press and hold the
↑ key until "LCD Contrast" appears on the display.
The standard (default) setting comes up automatically
but can be changed by pressing ↑ and ↓. Press √ to
confirm the setting.
Display charging stage: Press the ON key. When the
serial number of the PG1 is displayed, press and hold
the √ key until the charging status is displayed.
If the charging condition of the battery is less than
10%, replace the battery. To replace the battery,
remove the battery cover, open the battery shelf, and
replace with a new 9 V battery.

Operation

1. Press the ON key.
2. Place the PG1 LED (located on the diode holder)
onto the LED of the tool to be tested.
3. Briefly touch the power trigger of the tool.
4. The PG1 will display the serial number of the tool
and, if available, the date code, the type designa-
tion, and special features of the tool.
Press √ to move to the next screen. In both of the
bottom lines of the display, the menu point "reset"
and "main menu" are indicated. The menu points
are triggered with the ↑ and ↓ keys, and selected
with the √ key. "Reset" sets the current delta-values
(values since the last maintenance) to zero after
maintenance has been performed. If you choose
"main menu", you will go to the next screen.
5. Maintenance:
From the main menu you can select an additional
menu, which consists of the following points:
Reset: Sets the current delta-values to zero
(= a.m. menu point).
Indicating values: limit stops; by reset the delta-
value is set to zero, the "total" value remains as
it was and shows the total number of limit stops
(cycles) carried out with the tool. Use ↓ to move
to the next page. Disconnection "on" means that
the circuit cuts off the motor after a completed
cycle. The bonus states how many crimps can be
made exceeding the determined number before
the start of the maintenance indication (flashing)
before the tool is going to be out of action (shuts
Greenlee / A Textron Company
down for service). The menu point "limit stops"
shows the pre-adjusted number of limit stops until
the maintenance indication of the tool indicates
the next maintenance. On the next screen the
energy consumption is indicated. The delta-value
is set to zero again at reset, and the total value is
fixed.
On page 4/5 the number of measurements is
indicated. At reset the delta-value is set to zero
again, and the total value remains fixed. On page
5/5 the version of the circuit board and what it
was programmed to is displayed. Use the √ key to
return to the main menu.
Changing values: If you choose this menu point
with ι, you can set new maximum limit stops for
the beginning of the maintenance indication of
the tool. Use ↑ and ↓ to increase or decrease the
value. Press √ to move to the next screen, where
you are required to confirm the value you chose.
In the second menu point you can change the
value once more or readjust again the original
value in the third menu point. In the next screen
you can adjust the bonus-limit stops. A range of
0-255 is preset. 0 means that the bonus is set
on "infinite". In fact a maintenance which is due
is then indicated now as before but there is no
functional blocking. After this you are requested
to confirm the chosen value with the √ key. In the
next screen you select whether or not the tool
should turn the motor off after a completed cycle.
For this value, cutters are set at 0, while crimping
tools are set at 1. Confirm input with the √ key.
Afterwards the value can be changed once more
and the original value can be adjusted again. If
this value is confirmed with OK (!), you will go
back to the main menu.
6. Serial number (= entry window)
7. Control: The indicated values are for the manufac-
turer's control.
8. Options: Refer to the "Setup" section of this
manual.
9. The PG1 automatically shuts off after 5 minutes of
inactivity.
