As outlined in the Fastening Control Methods portion of this Chapter, this System is capable
of performing multiple-step fastening operations. The duration of each of these steps is
governed by one of two independent watchdog time settings. If the step fails to attain the
desired result before the completion of the specified time, a reject condition will occur.
