Tool

Operation:

When the system calculates a force or pressure outside the predetermined range the red light will
be lit, error message will be appended to output data string, and the contacts of relay-1 will close.
This condition could be caused by: tension pressure set incorrectly, an air leak in the tool, cut-off
timing set too short, or low air supply volume to the tool.

Correct the problems as required and cycle the tool by installing a clamp or using the M28090
device. If the red indicator is still lit, continue to look for and correct problems related to the air
system.

Note: Pushing the button on the control box will clear the error, return the indicator to green, and
open the relay contacts. This is not normally needed, unless the relay directly controls a shutoff
device to the tool. See page 34 for additional means to reset the system.

When the Control box first detects a connected tool, it will output the tool information: Total number
of cycles and tool serial number.

Tension Cylinder
Pressure Monitoring
System

Specifications:

Power: 110-240 50-60 Hz VAC input, 5VDC output wall supply adapter (6 ft wire provided)

Pressure range: will detect 10 to 125 PSI (70-860 kPa)

Output: 9-pin RS-232 serial (approx 10 ft cable provided)

Serial settings:

o

2400 or 9600 Baud

o

8 bit

o

No parity

o

1 stop bit

o

ASCII formatted data

o No flow control

Data format: Data columns (clamp number, PSI, estimated LBF and error if any) separated by tabs,

each record separated by line feed / carriage return, (hard return)

• Actual ASCII output: items in [ ] are output only if an error is detected:

(cycle number) 9 (Pressure) 9 (Force) 9 (serial number) [9 (error)] 10 13

Data is sent at each clamp installation cycle

Accuracy:

o

PSI: +/- 1.0 kPa: +/- 7

o

LBF: +/- 10 N: +/- 45
