Recipe list in the .xlsx configuration file

The SAMS Recipe List worksheet in the .xlsx configuration file contains a set of specifications for tightening operations.

Station Id: The Line No. and Station No., both written in the same cell, separated by an underscore "_". It must match the station ID that is used in PLC telegrams. The Station IDs specified here must be the ones that are used on the Station List worksheet in the .xlsx configuration file.

Controller Name: Specify the controller to be used. It must be the name that is used on the Station List worksheet in the .xlsx configuration file.

PR Codes: Restrict the recipe to a specific combination of PR Codes. To accept all workpieces, leave this field blank.

PSet(PF) / Mode(PM): Specify the tightening program number.

Bolt Count: Specify the number of bolts that you want tightened using the tightening program specified in the PSet(PF) / Mode(PM) column.

Spindle Count: Specify the number of spindles used with the tool. A wrong number will affect the output data for bolts. In case of multi-spindle tightenings, the spindle count is part of bolt name; otherwise the bolt names will not be correctly mapped to the results. For example, if Bolt Count is set to 3, and Spindle Count is set to 2, this means there are 6 bolts in the configuration.

Bolt Name: Type a bolt name—an arbitrary text string which is a unique identifier of the bolt within all stations and recipes. This is part of outward information for bolts.

Bolt Description: Enter a description for the bolt.

MNO Count: Specify the maximum amount of consecutive NOK retries. The counter is reset to 0 when an OK tightening is performed. It starts counting when a tightening attempt is NOK. For unrestricted number of retries, leave the cell empty.

Area ID: Specify the identification of the ILT area pertaining to the station. The ILT-driven tools at the station will only be enabled when inside the area. If this field is left blank, the tool specified in the recipe will be enabled regardless of its position.
