Disabled – Does not reduce the speed of the motor.
Manual – Reduces the tool speed to a specific value (Downshift Speed) when a specific torque
value (Downshift Torque) is achieved during the tightening cycle. Speed units are RPM,
Torque is in torque units.
ATC – Enables the Adaptive Tightening Control algorithm to slow the tool speed as the torque
rises.
The default values can be modified for when the algorithm starts (ATC Starting Torque), when
it ends (ATC Ending Torque) and what the tool speed is after the algorithm ends (ATC Ending
Speed). The torque units are percent of Target Torque. The speed values are percent of Speed.
Abort Timer – Stops the tool when the time has elapsed from the start of the step. Required for
this step. The value should be long enough to complete the tightening cycle during this step.
Delay Between Steps – The time the tool delays before proceeding with the next step in the
Task. Entered in seconds.
Power – The maximum power available to the tool to perform the tightening cycle (required for
this step). Units are percent of maximum rated torque of the tool. Should not be less than 100%.
Soft Stop – This controls how the tool is turned off AFTER reaching target torque. This is
designed as an ergonomic benefit to ease operator discomfort with direct-drive tools. If No is
selected the tool simply de-energizes and coasts to a stop.
If Yes is selected, the tools current will be removed for the time specified in Current Off Time,
then reapplied for the time specified in the Current Hold Time, then it will ramp to zero over
the time specified in Current Ramp Time. Units are in seconds.

Once the audit step has been created, Smart
Steps can be added. Smart Steps allow
modifications to the tool strategy BEFORE or
AFTER the audit step. See section 2.8.1.1
Wizard Screens for adding Smart Steps.
When finished modifying the tool strategy
step(s), press EXIT, save the changes and
return to the Run screen. See section 2.8.1.7
Setup: Exit for further information.
