Changing the operating mode of TWINCVI3
TWINCVI3 can manage 2 tools driven by 1 or 2 tightening units depending on whether the operating mode is syn-
chronous or asynchronous.
The operating mode shall be selected according to the application.
By default, the controller is in asynchronous mode.
It is strongly recommended to select in which mode the controller will run at the very beginning of the setup.
In the asynchronous mode, there are 2 tightening units.
Both tools can start independently.
Tightening reports are independent.
In the synchronous mode, there is 1 tightening unit.
Both tools start together (common «Start» signal).
The tightening steps of each tool can be synchronized.
The tightening report depends on both tools reporting.
Go to the start screen.
Tap this icon to go to the main menu.
Tap Configuration > Tightening unit.
