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. The system will
not run until this data is correctly set-up.

Programming all parameters should be performed using the FEC Inc. “MNR User Console”
software to simplify the programming operation and to provide a means of creating a back-up file
of the set-up.

NOTE: Most MNR systems are delivered with application-specific fastening data already setup
(if provided by customer). This set-up data is considered preliminary and should be adjusted
according to actual process / part runs for optimal performance.

Perform the following procedure by the front Display and Programming interface:

1. Check the transducer ZERO output.

P

Press the RESET button on the front keyboard-display. The MNR will perform a “Zero

Voltage” check and signify the results with an “ACC” for Accept or an “REJ” for Reject on
the Data Display. The STATUS LED will also light with the appropriate color. (See NOTE 1
below.)

2. Check the transducer CAL output.

P

Press the CAL button on the front keyboard-display. The MNR will perform a “CAL

Voltage” check and signify the results with an “ACC” for Accept or an “REJ” for Reject on
the Data Display. The STATUS LED will also light with the appropriate color. (See NOTE 1
below.)

NOTE 1: If the Zero and/or Cal check results in a "Reject" an “Abnormal” output will be
generated from the MNR 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.

P

Press the manual REV button on the front keyboard-display. Verify that the spindle is

turning in the appropriate direction (opposite the preset direction).

4. Verify operation of manual start.

P

Press the START button and verify that the tool runs in the correct direction until the pre-

programmed time elapses, creating a reject.

P

Press the RESET button on the operator panel to clear the “REJ” display and LED outputs

from the MNR Units.

5. Verify System operation by external commands.

P

Confirm that the equipment operates correctly when PLC inputs and outputs are activated.

Use the PLC to perform all of the functions (START, REVERSE, etc.) that were manually
activated earlier in this Section.
