WARNING
Network Interruption
To Avoid issues:
⇒ Never connect an Alpha Toolbox port to a plant network.
⇒ Never connect the SPINDLE port to a plant network.
The lead controller in a multiple spindle system can communicate to a plant network via the embedded
protocols, "See Chapter Communications [} 52]". The lead controller will collect and transmit the fastening cycle
data after each fastening cycle from each controller in the system via the selected protocol.
Connecting the SC controller to a facility network using the ETHERNET port. Use customer's supplied values
and enter the IP Address, Subnet Mask and Gateway into the lead controller.
If required setup parameters for embedded protocols under Setup -> Communications.
10.7
Multi spindle fastening cycle data
Data for each fastening cycle is entered as a line in the fastening cycle record in each controller in the system
for its own spindle. However, when a system is ran in Synchronized mode the fastening cycle records get an
additional column labelled Multi ID. This Multi ID is the same in each spindle in the multi-tool system for the
same fastening cycle ran. This allows the user to correlate the same run in each file operation.
