• Torque Hold Between Steps
When Torque Hold Between Steps is enabled, torque is held at one quarter of the next step torque
value until the next step is initiated. This can occur while spindles are awaiting synchronization with
other spindles or during Sequence programmed Time Wait commands. This helps compensate for
drastic torque relaxation during multiple spindle fastening and ensures that sockets remain engaged
on the fastener between steps.
• Save Curve Disable
Torque Curves will not be automatically stored in the controller after the fastening end if this
selected. (REJECT and ABNORMAL curves will still be stored)
