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 neccessary 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, and the ISA Main Unit switch is set to the RUN position. Perform
the following procedure:
1. Check the transducer ZERO output.
P Press the RESET button on front of the ISA Main Unit. The Axis Units will output a
number to [DSP1], and the "CHECK" and "ACCEPT" LED's will light. The ISA Main
Unit "CHECK" LED and "ACCEPT" light will illuminate to verify that 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 ISA Main Unit. The Axis Units will output a
number to [DSP1], and the "CHECK" and "ACCEPT" LED's will light. The ISA 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 ISA 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 ISA Main Unit. Verify that spindle #1
is turning in the appropriate 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 operation (reference Step 3B).
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 situtation 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 each of the IN BYPASS
switches are set to the NORMAL position. Press the REV button on the ISA Main
Unit to operate all spindles simultaneously as verification of sufficient input power.
