5.2 Initial Data Setting
After completion of the System verification/power on procedure in Section 5.1, the System is
ready for the input of data required for the fastening operation. Chapters 6 and 7 give details
on the types of information required, and the procedure for entering data into the System.
NOTE: All AFC1200 Systems are delivered with application-specific fastening data already setup.
The data input referred to above will be necessary if there is a change to the System
application, and may be necessary in other circumstances such as the replacement of a
System component or a change (oily, oversize, etc.) in the parts being processed.
After the System is setup with the appropriate data, verify all Axis Unit IN BYPASS/NORMAL
switches are set to NORMAL. Set the Main Unit RUN/PROGRAM switch to the RUN position,
and the AXIS-DSP rotary switch to position one (1 = Peak Torque and Final Angle). Perform
the following procedure:
1. Check the transducer ZERO output.
P Press the RESET button on front of the Main Unit. The Axis Units will output a
number to [DSP1], and the "CHECK" and "ACCEPT" LED's will light. The Main
Unit "CHECK" LED and "ACCEPT" light will illuminate to verify all Axis Units are
sufficiently within range of zero (0). (See NOTE1 below.)
2. Check the transducer CAL output.
P Press the CAL button on front of the Main Unit. The Axis Units will output a
number to [DSP1], and the "CHECK" and "ACCEPT" LED's will light. The Main
Unit "CHECK" LED and "ACCEPT" light will illuminate to verify all Axis Units are
sufficiently calibrated. (See NOTE1 below.)
NOTE1: If the Zero and/or Cal check results in an "ABNORMAL" LED output to the Axis Unit (and/or
an illuminated "REJECT" light on the Main Unit), then follow the instructions shown on the
System monitor. Section 9.4.1 Axis Unit Abnormal also offers guidance.
WARNING:
VERIFY THERE ARE NO PERSONNEL OR OBSTRUCTIONS IN THE TOOL
AREA
PRIOR TO ACTIVATING A SPINDLE OR OTHER MOVEABLE COMPONENT.
3. Check manual reverse operation.
A. Set the IN BYPASS/NORMAL switch on each Axis Unit as follows:
1. Verify Axis Unit #1 is set to NORMAL.
2. Set all other Axis Units to the IN BYPASS position.
B. Press the manual REV button on front of the Main Unit. Verify that spindle #1 is
turning in the appropriate direction (opposite the preset direction), and that all
other
spindles are motionless. (See NOTE2 below.)
C. Switch Axis Unit #1 to the IN BYPASS position. Switch Axis Unit #2 to NORMAL,
and verify spindle #2 reverse operation (reference Step B).
D. Repeat this procedure for each Axis Unit/spindle. It is important to complete
this step for each Axis Unit/spindle prior to performing the next step.
NOTE2: If any Axis Unit fails to activate the appropriate spindle, correct the situation before
continuing to the next Unit. First, check the nutrunner (tool) cables going to the Axis Unit to
verify correct connections to the appropriate components. If the problem persists, reference
the System monitor display and/or Section 9.4 Axis Unit Abnormal for guidance.
E. After all Axis Units are verified individually, ensure that each of the IN BYPASS
