Chapter 7: System Operation 8.2. Current - If the fastening curve is showing the current plot, the Maximum Current allowed for the tool's servo will define the vertical scale. For instance: a Tool DFT132M3S/O will use a servo type 205 which handles a maximum current of 50 Amps. The Full Scale vertical value will be 50. 8.3. ANGLE - This horizontal "X" axis has a range based on the High Angle limit in Set Parameter.
Chapter 7: System Operation SCREEN DISPLAY Vertical "Y" Axis Range (Torque) SETTING SETTING RESULTS High Torque limit: 39 Nm (setup in Set Parameter). It is recommended to manually setup this value with the TORQUE SCALE function. Axis range displays highest reading as 46.80 Nm (39 Nm high Torque x 1.2) and the low defaults to zero (0). The overall range (46.8) divided by the default number of tick marks (8) results in 5.85 Nm increments between tick marks. Starting with 46.
Chapter 7: System Operation 8-4. Time - The range and the high end of the scale on this horizontal "X" axis is determined by the TIME SCALE and DIVIDE (TIME) values as set on the [SCALE] pulldown menu. The low end of the axis scale is zero (0). The TIME SCALE setting represents the number of samples (Torque/Time readings) to be plotted for each fastening. A Time Scale setting of 200 will result in a Fastening Curve with 200 points (Torque/Time readings) plotted on the graph for each fastening.
