Working with the Task Tab

Tasks are configured in the Task menu. A task runs a tightening program and can be monitored from the Mobile GUI. The results of the task are presented in the Results menu.

To create a tightening program, create a task and select a strategy, either Tighten to Torque or Tighten to Torque plus Angle.

The PFXC tightening programs need parameters to be set in order to perform tightening. Entering a value for Target Torque is mandatory, as well as Target Angle if Tighten to Torque plus Angle was chosen. Other settings are optional, such as Program name, Peak Torque and Angle. These settings are used to monitor the tightening as it progresses by adding limits within which the torque, or angle the nut turns, must remain.

It is possible to run two types of tightening programs from the Mobile GUI, Tighten to Torque and Tighten to Torque plus Angle.

Multistep programs and other types of tightening programs are available in the Web GUI, and should not be assigned to the Virtual Station 1, to avoid incorrectly displayed results.
