    Why is the barcode scanner not working on my Atlas Copco STwrench Tools wrench?
    • T
      Tiffany WalkerSep 18, 2025
      If your Atlas Copco Tools wrench is showing 'Barcode not working', it could be due to wrong BARCODE module installation or wrong wrench settings. Verify proper module installation and ensure that the barcode is activated in the tightening programs, and the identifier section of the ToolsTalk BLM is configured properly.

    Why does my Atlas Copco STwrench Tools wrench display 'No program'?
    • L
      Laura TaylorAug 26, 2025
      If your Atlas Copco Tools wrench displays 'No program', this indicates a missing Pset. This could be because the tool recognition is used to select a program, but there is no Pset associated with the current end-fitting tool number plugged into the smartHEAD. It could also mean that the barcode is used to select a program, but there is no Pset associated with the barcode reader. To resolve this, you can: * Define at least one Pset in the wrench. * Define a Pset associated with the end-fitting tool currently installed in the smartHEAD. * Define a Pset associated with the barcode currently being read.

    What to do if I see 'Error Zeroing Torque' on my Atlas Copco STwrench wrench display?
    • A
      alvaradokeithAug 27, 2025
      If the Atlas Copco Tools wrench displays 'Error Zeroing Torque', it could be due to bad wrench handling during power on, a yielded transducer, or controller failure. Try switching off the wrench, then switch it back on, ensuring no torque is applied during zero adjustment. If the issue persists, consider replacing the smartHEAD or the wrench controller to see if that resolves the problem.

    Why am I getting an error saving a Pset to my Atlas Copco Tools wrench?
    • T
      traceykempSep 22, 2025
      If the Atlas Copco Tools wrench displays 'Error while saving a Pset', it means the parameters are not valid. Verify all the Pset (Multistage / Job) parameters. If one of them is not valid, the software cannot save the tightening program on the wrench.

    Why is the IRC-W module not working on my Atlas Copco STwrench Tools wrench?
    • M
      Mrs. Amber Bowman MDSep 23, 2025
      If the IRC-W module is not working on your Atlas Copco Tools wrench, it could be due to wrong module installation or wrong wrench settings. Verify proper module installation and check the network parameters in the ToolsTalk BLM settings.

    What does 'RBU incompatible' mean on my Atlas Copco STwrench Tools wrench?
    • J
      Julie RodriguezSep 9, 2025
      If the Atlas Copco Tools wrench displays 'RBU incompatible', the new RBU installed in the wrench is not compatible with the data stored in the wrench memory. Select RBU data and not wrench data to work with the new RBU, or use a different RBU supporting the data stored in the wrench memory.

    Why does my Atlas Copco STwrench Tools wrench display 'No program selected'?
    • A
      andrea34Sep 12, 2025
      If the Atlas Copco Tools wrench displays 'No program selected', it means a Pset is missing from QATnode. The Pset source is set to “QATnode” or “API”, but QATnode or “API” is not sending Pset to wrench. Select the Pset from the QATnode or “API”.

    Why is the shock indicator on my Atlas Copco STwrench wrench colored red?
    • S
      Sarah JohnsonSep 3, 2025
      If the shock indicator on your Atlas Copco Tools wrench is colored in red, it means the wrench has been exposed to a shock over the limit. You should complete a check of the wrench functionality and recalibrate it, after which the shock indicator has to be replaced.

    What does 'Capacity error' mean on my Atlas Copco STwrench Tools wrench?
    • D
      Darlene WalkerSep 1, 2025
      If the Atlas Copco Tools wrench displays 'Capacity error', it means the smartHEAD currently installed on the wrench has a capacity lower than the torque value(s) specified in the Pset. Decrease the torque parameters in the Pset.
