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 AFC1100 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 RUN/BYPASS switches
are set to NORMAL. Perform the following procedure:
1. Check the transducer ZERO output.
P Press the RESET button on front of the Axis unit. The Axis unit will output a number
to the DATA display and the "ACCEPT" LED will light. (See NOTE1 below.)
2. Check the transducer CAL output.
P Press the CAL button on front of the Axis unit. The Axis Units will output a number to
the DATA display and the "ACCEPT" LED will light. (See NOTE1 below.)
NOTE1: If the Zero and/or Cal check results in an "ABNORMAL" LED output from the Axis unit
refer to Section 9 for 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 RUN.
2. Set all other Axis Units to the BYPASS position.
B. Press the manual REV button on front of the Axis 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 BYPASS position. Switch Axis unit #2 to RUN,
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.
E. After all Axis Units are verified individually, ensure that each of the BYPASS
switches are set to the RUN position. Press the REV button on the Main
Operator panel to operate all spindles simultaneously.
