Sync Point

In a synchronization point the tool waits for all other tools to reach the corresponding synchronization point in their programs. Depending on the status for all tools the program continues on the tightening path, the repair path or the terminate path.

To prevent overheating of tools that are waiting in a synchronization point they are only allowed to “hold torque” or “hold position” for a maximum of 1 second. After this the tool will release the hold and continue to wait for the other tools.

Parameter	Description
Sync hold condition	Hold position: The tool holds the position it had when the previous step ended. No Hold: The motor is turned off and the position will not be held. Hold Torque: If the step before the synchronization point is a DynaTork step it is possible to set HoldTorque.

Configuring Sync point

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.
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.
