Setting the Pass / Fail Criteria This section describes how to set the pass / fail criteria. There are two ways of setting, direct teaching and manual setting. Setting by Direct Teaching Direct teaching uses real screws and workpieces. It measures the pulses of motor rotation from when the screwdriver starts turning to when it reaches the torque-up.
Page 19
2 Fasten a screw to a workpiece. ◦ The pulse is counted until the screw is seated. ◦ Repeat this teaching process at least three times. ▶ Fail PASS 3 Press and hold the F3 button to set the allowable range of the threshold.
Setting by Manual Procedure Input the number of pulses directly to set the criteria. Caution If you set the criteria manually, the factor of allowable range has no effect. Then, you need to set the number of pulses considering the variances of screws and workpieces. 1 Press and hold the F1 button.
Setting Screw Counter Every time a screw is fastened correctly, the number of screws to be fastened on the display decreases (counting down). If the result is <Fail>, there is no counting down. 1 Press and hold the F1 button. ▶ ...
