INTRODUCTION

Torque Screwdriver Tester (TST) is a bench top measuring instrument with an integral transducer.

The TST is a menu driven system with full control via the front panel keys. The main set up menu is shown below followed by an explanation of each selection option.

TST has an external millivolt/volt (mV/V) transducer interface. When used with the SMART range of transducers from Norbar, simply connecting the transducer will automatically set up the TST for use.

1 LIMITS

The user can set up to 8 target values that each have two settable LIMITS. When operating, the limit status is indicated on the display i.e. LO, OK or HI and the illumination of the corresponding yellow, green or red L.E.D. The limits are active after the torque value has passed through 0.5% of the transducer capacity and then operate as the mode selected, for example;

Measurement mode Limit operation

Track Limits follow signal and are not held.

Dial & Electronic Impulse tool Clutch tool Stall tool

Limits status is held until RESET/PRINT is pressed.

Click & Cam Limit status is held until after the auto reset timer has operated.

The limit status shown on the display i.e. LO, OK or HI along with the reading will be output on the serial port when requested. The limits set up are password protected (default password = 000000). Set up of the limits enables the user to define the target (1 to 8), torque units in which limits are to operate, target value, upper and lower set points, and direction of operation for each target number. 2 CURRENT SETTINGS

CURRENT SETTINGS are system parameters which include; language, password, date / time setting and format, serial port settings, mode frequency response. They also include first peak sensitivity, auto reset hold time, trigger from threshold, conversion units, modes of operation and power down time when in battery operation. All of these settings are password protected (default password = 000000). All of the settings for limits and current settings can be printed if print defaults is selected from the current settings menu. This is not password protected.

INTRODUCTION CONTINUED :- __________________________________________________

3 CALIBRATE TRANSDUCER

Selecting this option from the set up menu allows the user to calibrate the internal TST transducer and/or any external SMART transducers. The calibration screen is shown in torque units with the direction of torque also being shown. The TST automatically works out the mV/V value to reprogram into any SMART transducer and also displays the date and time that the transducer was last calibrated. 4 RETURN TO MEASURE

This option allows the user to view the measurement screen, but also gives the user access to the ability to store details of up to 20 NON-SMART transducers. These stored transducers can be edited or deleted from the store and the whole store can be printed. The last transducer used will always be retained for quick selection. When using SMART transducers, there is no need to enter the transducers details into the TST as these are stored in the connected transducer. BATTERY RECHARGING :-_______________________________________________________

To recharge the batteries simply connect the ac power adapter between the TST and a live a.c supply. Recharging is independent of the on/off switch and TST can still be used when recharging. Indication of external power is shown by the illumination of the display back light.

Battery life can be greatly increased from a minimum of 16 hours by making use of the auto power down function, which will send the instrument into standby mode if no key has been pressed or measurement reading taken for the specified time. The battery is constantly monitored and indication is given on the display if it should become low or flat. When low battery has been shown on the display there is approximately 20 minutes of use left. JOINT SIMULATOR :-____________________________________________________________

For power tool testing a joint simulator is included. The joint simulator is located on the hexagon of the internal transducer and secured finger tight. The joint simulator is for testing of clockwise torques. HYPER TERMINAL INTERFACE :- _________________________________________________

Entry of information into the TST can be greatly speeded up by attaching the serial port of the TST to the serial port of a P.C. and using the standard Hyper Terminal program found in Microsoft Windows. This gives the P.C. total control of the TST via the P.C. keyboard with serial output data being able to be viewed and stored. The necessary cables, connectors and instructions are available from Norbar, part no 60229. TST CALIBRATION AND REPAIR :- ________________________________________________

Your TST has been supplied with a current certificate of calibration for the instrument and the internal transducer. To maintain the specified accuracy it is recommended that the TST and any external transducers are recalibrated at least once per year.

Re-calibration and repair should be carried out at Norbar or by a Norbar approved agent, where all the facilities to ensure the instrument is functioning at maximum accuracy are available.

Alternatively, procedures for calibrating the TST to the specified accuracy can be obtained from Norbar.

TROUBLE SHOOTING

1. Zero does not function in track mode. Transducer zero must be within +/- 3% of full scale, return defective transducer to Norbar. 2. Measurement modes do not function correctly.

Ensure that the TRIGGER FROM setting is not set too high.

3. Battery only powers TST for a short time. Battery pack (Part number 38876) may need replacing.

NOTE:- Precautions must be taken during this procedure to prevent static shock damage to the circuit boards.

a) Switch off and remove a.c. power adapter. b) Remove the 4 screws from the corners of the TST front panel using 2.5 mm hexagonal key

provided. c) Pull front panel forward from the top edge, unplug battery connector (red & black leads)

from CONN4. d) Remove battery pack from case.

Refitting is the reversal of removal. 4. Serial data output is not communicating with other equipment. a) Check that control word on the TST and the equipment receiving data match. See page 15. b) Check that the baud rate is set to the same as the equipment receiving data. c) Check that the connecting lead is wired correctly at both ends, see page 15.

d) Check if equipment receiving data requires the units of measurement inhibited or a leading character. This is applicable when interfacing to Mitutoyo equipment.

NOTE:- use the TEST OUTPUT to help in fault finding. This can be found by entering SET UP CURRENT SETTINGS SERIAL PORT, then select CONFIRM.

5. Serial data output is being overwritten.

Your printer may need a line feed, enable the line feed function via the menus SET UP CURRENT SETTINGS SERIAL PORT.

6. Serial data is being output too fast.

Your printer may be too slow. To slow down the TST output change the delay between lines function via the menus SET UP CURRENT SETTINGS SERIAL PORT.

7. Display shows SMART TD NOT INITALISED. a) You have an unmodified ETS transducer plugged in. b) The transducer lead may have a broken connection. c) Your SMART transducer may have lost its memory, return to Norbar.

8. Menu 82. CLOCK & SETTINGS NOT INITALISED is displayed on power on.

The back up battery has failed. Replace or return to Norbar. NOTE:- Precautions must be taken during this procedure to prevent static shock
