Sync points

To synchronize between the different tools in a Step Sync setup, synchronization points are used. At these, the tools will wait for each other before continuing with the next step in the tightening program. It is permitted to have multiple synchronization points in consecutive order, as long as the maximum number of synchronization points has not been reached. The number of synchronization points in a multistage tightening can vary from 0 to 25. Synchronization points can be added automatically after each step.

Configuring Sync points
  1. In a Multistep Tightening Program, double-click on a Sync Point, or mark it and then select Configuration in the lower area of the workspace. To mark several, press CTRL.

  2. In the Configuration area, select one of the following conditions for each Sync Point:

    • NoHold. The motor is turned off and the position will not be held.

    • HoldPosition. The tool holds the position it had when the previous step ended.

    • HoldTorque. The tool holds the torque it had when entering the synchronization point. Only available if the step before the synchronization point is a DynaTork step.
