# Multistep Programs

WARNING

Risk of injury

A change in the configuration of the tightening program may cause unexpected torque, rotational direction, or speed in the system(s) where the tightening program is currently in use. This could result in severe bodily injury and/or property damage.

- Check the tightening program configurations after adding a new program or after applying changes to an existing program.

Controller features, such as the Low Reaction Tightening Strategies and controller-wide functions among others, require licenses distributed through the Functionality Management System (FMS). Whereas configuration of features is possible without specific licenses, the assignment and use of those features will require the correct license to be installed on the controller. Please refer to Licenses (FMS) for more detailed information on licenses.

A multistep tightening is a tightening done in several steps. The number of steps and the type of steps vary depending on the tightening to be done. A multistep tightening program is highly configurable, including monitoring function and restrictions. To access multistep tightening programs, go to the Tightening tab in the home view and select Multistep Program Library on the left pane.
