Switching between Tethering, Control, and Confirm Mode

The ILT Base Station has three modes.

  • Tethering, the tool is enabled if it is located within the user defined distance and orientation. Tethering mode is the default mode.

  • Control, the ILT Base Station tells the controller which tightening program to use based on tool distance and orientation.

  • Confirm, the controller (which in turn can receive process information from an overhead system) selects the tightening program to be used. The ILT Base Station system confirms that the user defined distance and orientation for that tightening program is correct and enables the tool.

  1. From the ILT Base Station Home screen, select Configuration and then select Mode.

  2. Select either Tethering, Control, or Confirm to switch between modes.
