INTRODUCTION

DESCRIPTIONESCRIPTION

The AWS-3000 Torque Display is designed to provide for a wide range of

torque testing applications in the smallest foot print at a very reasonable price.

Features include an LCD graphics display, built-in battery pack for remote

testing and an Intellect External port for easy expansion with our entire line of

torque and load transducers. A new menu based user interface allows for a

wide range of software configurations while keeping the tester easy to use.

OPERATION

TTON FUNCTION

SIDE PANEL INPUTS

The sides of the AWS-3000 contains various interface connections:

Transducer Input (12-pin connector Optional).

To install or remove the cable simply push in or pull out. Do this by gripping

the outer metal case of the cable and NEVER from the cord itself. THIS IS NOT

A TWIST LOCK CABLE!

DC In

The interface for the AC Adapter supplied with the unit. Use this if you plan on

working under Mains power. Use only the AC adapter provided with the unit.

Use of another power source will void the warranty and may cause severe

damage to the display.

RS-232

If you are downloading to a printer, data collector, computer, etc., this is the

mini-plug interface for the RS-232 cable. Values are sent via RS-232 every

time the unit auto-clears or the ENT/clr button is pressed

Keylock

The "key", a small black plastic connector inserts into the small hole on the

rear of the unit. When this key is removed, those functions and modes

specified for lockout will become non-functional.

CHARGING THE BATTERIES

1. The batteries in this system should last approximately 12 hours when fully

charged. The Low-Battery indicator on the display will illuminate when the

battery voltage is low. Typically, the user will have between 15-30

minutes before the batteries become too weak to power the unit.

2. The batteries are charged any time the system is plugged-in. In Fast

Charge mode, i.e. the unit is plugged in and the power is OFF, charge time

is between 2 and 4 hours depending on battery charge level. The green

LED on the front panel will flash when the battery is charging and turned

off.

Note: If the tester is to be stored for several months, always ensure the

battery is completely charged prior to storage. It is recommended the

tester be plugged in when not in use. This will not harm the unit and will

increase battery life.

AWS-3000 Guide

OPERATION

RS-232

The AWS-3000 display can be connected to a printer, computer or data

collector via its RS232 interface. Every time a reading is accepted into

memory, a peak is cleared, or data is transmitted via the print data menu(s),

it is transmitted via the RS-232 port. To download the readings, go to the

DATA MENU.

SPECIAL NOTE: Model AWS-3000 PTEST is not equipped with memory, so the

operation of the RS-232 will vary from the standard unit. The protocol,

however, remains the same.

OF OPERATION

The AWS product line has been newly redesigned to provide a consistent

interface throughout the product line. We have made the user interface menu

driven, as opposed to 'hard coded'. This has provided several advantages.

First, once you learn the basics, you can operate any of our products with the

shortest learning curve possible. Secondly, it allows us to offer a greater array

of functionality than was previously possible. Thirdly, it allows the user the

opportunity to economically upgrade and or customize the tester at any point

in the future.

ways to change settings, or otherwise gain access to the operation of the

tester:

1. Live programming: Where the 'soft buttons have text above them,

pressing the button will scroll through the options. In the picture above,

pressing the down arrow will scroll through the Modes of Operation. These

include Peak, 1st Peak and Track. The Up Arrow will scroll through the

Operation Overview: There are 7 buttons on the display face: Off, On/clr, ENT

and four (4) programmable or ‘soft’ buttons. The exact function of the soft

buttons is defined by the bottom two rows of text and will vary depending on the

current mode of operation. Pressing the ENT button will take you back to the

previous screen, until you return to the run mode.

Button Operation:

Run Mode (Current mode displayed):

ON / clr: Clears the peak reading if saved, Zero’s the display and erases the

memory location otherwise.

ENT: Save current reading in memory if on and clears the peak reading.

Memory Mode (MEM displayed instead of mode):

ON / clr: Goes to run mode without erasing memory location.
