INTRODUCTION 2 INTRODUCTION DESCRIPTION The AWS-QCM torque tester is designed to provide for a wide range of torque testing applications in the smallest foot print at a very reasonable price. Features include an LCD graphics display, built-in battery pack for remote testing and robust design. A menu based user interface allows for a wide range of software configurations while keeping the tester easy to use. SYSTEM SPECIFICATIONS Dimensions Power Requirements Width: 4.25", Height: 1", Depth: 7.
OPERATION 3 OPERATION ION DISPLAY OPERATION Button Function: 1: Turns the display On Zeroes the transducer if no peak has been captured. Clears the reading if a peak has been captured. (Peak and 1st Peak Modes) 2: Turns the display Off 3: Programmable 'Soft Buttons'. The function of these buttons vary with the current menu set and is shown on the bottom two lines of the display.
OPERATION 4 SIDE PANEL INPUTS DC In The interface for the AC Adapter supplied with the unit. Use this if you plan on working under Mains power. Use only the AC adapter provided with the unit. Use of another power source will void the warranty and may cause severe damage to the display. RS-232 If you are downloading to a printer, data collector, computer, etc., this is the mini-plug interface for the RS-232 cable.
OPERATION 5 RS-232 The AWS-QC display can be connected to a printer, computer or data collector via its RS232 interface. Every time a reading is accepted into memory, a peak is cleared, or data is transmitted via the print data menu(s), it is transmitted via the RS-232 port. To download the readings, go to the DATA MENU. Cables are available directly from AWS, or they can be constructed according to the following tables.

Programming and Navigation 7 PROGRAMMING & NAVIGATION TION ENTERS THE MENU SYSTEM SELECTS MODE OF OPERATION The AWS product line has been newly redesigned to provide a consistent interface throughout the product line. We have made the user interface menu driven, as opposed to 'hard coded'. This has provided several advantages. First, once you learn the basics, you can operate any of our products with the shortest learning curve possible.
Programming and Navigation Operation. 2. These include Peak, 1st Peak and Track. will scroll through the engineering units. 8 The Up Arrow Menu Driven: There are two sets of menus in the display. a. Bottom right Oval button will scroll through the Tester Operating Functions. For basic testers, this includes the RUN MODE and MEMORY (MEM) MODE. b. Toggling this button will change the functions of the other soft buttons appropriately. MENU (bottom left oval) will take you to the main menu system.
Programming and Navigation 9 Button Operation: Run Mode (Current mode displayed): ON: Clears the peak reading if saved, Zero’s the display and erases the memory location otherwise. ENT: Save current reading in memory if memory is on and clears the peak reading. Memory Mode (MEM displayed instead of Run): ON: Goes to run mode without erasing memory location. ENT: Scrolls to next empty location. Either Mode: RUN -> MEM: (soft button) changes the mode of the arrow buttons.
Programming and Navigation display. From now on, automatically into memory. every reading will clear and be 10 stored * Remember auto-clear will not work in Track Mode. 1-2 Filter +, - Set filter value in Hz. 125, 250, 500, 1000, 1500 & 2000. 1-3 Peak Blanking +, - Set blanking in percent of full scale. Peak Blanking sets the minimum threshold at which torque is captured as a peak. Pressing the + and - buttons will toggle this from 2% through 50% of Full Scale.
