5.2.2.1 Fastening Cycle Counters
QPM tools have on board counters that record the number of fastening cycles completed by the tool.
Odometer Counter Records the total number of fastening cycle the tool has completed during its
lifetime.
Trip Counter Records the number of fastening cycles the tool completed since the last reset to
zero.
PM Counter Records the number of fastening cycles the tool completed since the last reset to
zero. Interacts with PM Threshold.
PM Threshold A static value set by the end user. When the PM Counter exceeds the PM Threshold
(Limit), the controller provides a maintenance alert. The alert is an orange indicator
on the front of the controller and on the tool.
The controller reads the fastening cycle counters from the tool on each power up.
5.2.3 Display and Multiple Function Button
Handheld QPM tools have a display and a multiple function button (MFB). Two sets of lights [3 and 7] indicate
Fastening cycle status. Two blue lights indicate whether the tool is armed (on) or not armed (off) and tool rotation
direction, disassembly [1] or assembly [2]. A single multiple function button [5] can change tool direction and or
parameter sets. When the button is used to select the Job, one of two orange indicators [4 or 6] illuminates to
show the active Job. EA tools have four sets of lights [3 and 7] and an LED [8] indicates when the fastening cycle
count exceeds the PM limit.
