7.6.1 Recommended Parameter Set-up for Tubenut Head
The following parameters are recommended for setting up the Tubenut head function.
1. Fastening Function Version [WORK]-00, [D-No]-03
Change to version for Tubenut head tool (1.00, 1.01 , 1.10, 1.11)
(See page 7-12 for function version change procedure)
2. External Gear Ratio [WORK]-00, [D-No]-04
Default is “ 1.000”. If the gear ratio is other than 1:1, then the gear ratio must
be adjusted here or angle readings will not be correct when fastening.
(ex. If gear ratio is 1:1.132, then “1.132” should be entered here)
3. Gear Head Selection [WORK]-00, [D-No]-05 (Firmware Ver. 2.33 or higher)
Select the version of Tubenut head you are using. (CW or CCW) This is de-
termined by the direction the NUTRUNNER must rotate in order to rotate the
tubenut head in the FASTENING direction and is dependant on the gearing
in the tubenut head. (Without the tubenut head attached to the nutrunner,
slowly rotate the tubenut socket in the CW direction and take notice of which
direction the square drive is turning on the other end of the head. If it rotates
in the SAME direction, use the CW setting. If it rotates in the OPPOSITE di-
rection, use the CCW setting)
“00” : Normal (Default)
“01” : CW Tubenut Head (Enables CW Tubenut Function)
“03” : CCW Tubenut Head (Enables CCW Tubenut Function)
4. Full Scale Torque [WORK]-01(thru-16), [D-No]-10
This value will need to be adjusted to make up for torque loss through the
tubenut gearing. (This should be determined by using the calibration adjust-
ment method – Section 7-4) This value changes with tool size and capacity.
5. Torque Inhibit Limit [WORK]-01(thru-16), [D-No]-19
When using the Tubenut function, the Torque Inhibit Limit parameter sets the
MAX. amount of torque that can be sensed during the Torque Inhibit Revolu-
tion setting. This is used to set the max. torque to be sensed during the start
of rotation of the socket or until the socket “U” opening moves to a closed
position. This will protect from damage anything being inserted into the
path of the socket as it rotates in the OPEN space. If this torque value is
exceeded during the Torque Inhibit Revolution (Work – 01 (thru-16) D-No-
61), a REJECT will result. This cannot be set to low or nuisance REJECTS
will occur during normal motor start-up.
Recommended setting: .75 – 1.5Nm
NOTE: This setting will vary by tool size and Tubenut head configuration.
WARNING! – Do not set this ABOVE the recommended setting or per-
sonnel injury may result!
6. Torque Inhibit Revolutions [WORK]-01(thru-16), [D-No]-61
Set Torque Inhibit Revolution so that the torque can be checked during motor
start-up (Just enough revolution for the socket to close the “U” opening)
Recommended setting: .3rev
