MTF 6000 and SQS3 integration 3

2 Purpose of this document
This document describes the configuration steps that are required to integrate a MicroTorque Focus 6000 (MTF6000) controller and the Scalable Quality Solution 3 (SQS3). It details only those steps that are specific to the basic integration of the two products. The reader of the document needs to possess good knowledge of the configuration and operation of all components involved.
3 Prerequisites
These components are required for a successful integration of MTF 6000 and SQS3: · MTF6000 with IAM Process · MTF6000 software version supported by SQS3 according to the SQS3 Fact Sheet: http://toosseas0004/portal/content.php/3343-Single-Qualition-Solution-tool-connectivity-corner · ToolsTalk MT 7.6.3 or newer · Scalable Quality Solution 3.3.0 or newer
4 MTF6000 configuration
4.1 Connect to the controller
Physically connect the MTF 6000 to your PC via USB or serial cable. If the controller has been configured on a network already, you can also connect to it via Ethernet. Start ToolsTalk MT using the icon on the PC desktop or the shortcut in the program menu and open the connection to the MTF 6000.

4.2 Configure the network settings of the MTF6000
The SQS3 can communicate to the MTF6000 via Ethernet only. The controller must be configured to operate on a network that the SQS3 can reach. If you are unsure about the correct settings for the network, consult a network administrator before taking the next steps.
In ToolsTalk MT open the Controller settings dialog and make these adjustments:
1. In the Configuration pane, find the Network stanza and set the Network mode to Static. 2. Enter an IP address that is valid on the network and not yet in use. 3. Enter the Subnet mask of the network and the IP address of the Gateway on the network. 4. Switch the Open Protocol parameter to "Enabled".
4.3 Connect the MTF6000 to the network
If the MTF6000 is not connected to the network yet, connect it now to test the settings you entered in the previous chapter. If the controller is already on the network, you can skip these steps.
1. Disconnect ToolsTalk MT from the MTF6000 or close the program. 2. Physically connect the controller to your network. 3. Start ToolsTalk MT and open the connection to the MTF6000 via Ethernet using the IP address you
configured in the previous chapter.
If the connection is not successful, return to chapter 4.2, verify the network settings of the MTF6000 and correct them if needed.
4.4 Configure the startup source
The SQS3 and the MTF6000 will communicate via Open Protocol. The controller must be configured to accept commands from Open Protocol sources accordingly.
1. In ToolsTalk MT, open the Controller settings dialog. 2. In the Configuration pane find the Startup stanza and set Select source to "Protocol/ToolsTalk MT"
4.5 Configure Identifier 1
The SQS3 will submit an identifier to the MTF6000 via Open Protocol every time it selects a tightening program. The MTF6000 must be configured to properly process the identifier coming from the SQS3.
1. In ToolsTalk MT, open the Identifiers dialog. 2. Add a new identifier, select an available Number and enter a Name. 3. Open the new Identifier you just created. 4. Under Validation enter an Identification string length of 25. 5. Leave all character positions unselected in the dialog Identifier significant position setup. 6. Confirm the upcoming dialog with Yes. 7. Under Configuration select "Store in custom ID" as Action type and make sure Keep until replaced is set
to "Yes". 8. Enter a Key 1 for the first Identifier, for example "ProductID". 9. Select character positions "{1-25}" in Format 1. 10. Select "Custom ID 1" as Save destination 1. 11. Close the dialog and confirm to save the new settings to the controller.

4.6 Optional: configure additional identifiers
If you plan to configure the SQS3 to send 2, 3, or 4 identifiers to the MTF6000, you must also configure the MTF6000 to process these additional identifiers. If you are unsure at this point whether you will require additional identifiers from the SQS3 later on, go ahead and perform these next steps anyway:
1. From the Identifiers dialog, Add another identifier, select an available Number and enter a Name. 2. Open the new Identifier you just created. 3. Under Validation enter an Identification string length of 100. 4. Leave all character positions unselected in the dialog Identifier significant position setup. 5. Under Configuration select "Store in custom ID" as Action type and make sure Keep until replaced is set
to "Yes". 6. Enter a Key 1 for the first Identifier, for example "ProductID". 7. Select character positions "{1-25}" in Format 1. 8. Select "Custom ID 1" as Save destination 1. 9. Repeat steps 5 to 7 for every additional identifier you would like the SQS3 to send to the MTF 6000.
Format must be "{26-50}" for Identifier 2, "{51-75}" for Identifier 3 and "{76-100}" for Identifier 4. The Save destination must be "Custom ID 2", "Custom ID 3" and "Custom ID 4" accordingly.

5 Scalable Quality Solution 3 configuration
5.1 Add the tool
The Open Protocol connection to the MTF6000 needs to be configured: 1. In the Station Tree, add a new Tool to the Hardware of your station. Choose "Open Protocol Micro Torque" as the Device class. 2. Enter a Tool/channel name and the IP Address of the MTF6000 controller. The Port is always 4545 and does not need to be adjusted. 3. On the Options tab make sure the parameter Set time of controller is checked. 4. Select whether the SQS3 shall download OK or NOK traces from the MTF6000. Beware that the download of traces will increase the amount of disk capacity consumed by the SQS3 result data
5.2 Assign the tool to bolt cases
Assign the new MicroTorque Open Protocol device you configured to the bolt cases linked to your station and enter the Psets you want to use as tightening programs. The SQS3 will enable the tool for these bolt cases and select the Psets when you run the SQS3 operator guidance. Please note that the Read programs from tools button is not available for Psets on the MTF 6000.
5.3 Optional: configure additional identifiers
If you wish to send a second, third or even fourth identifier from the SQS3 to the MTF 6000 for every product, you can configure them at the root of the Assembly Tree in the SQS3.
1. In the SQS3 Configurator open the Product Tree and click on Assemblies. 2. Select the tab Identifiers. 3. Enter the data you want the SQS3 to send to the MTF6000 as additional identifiers. Note: If you configure additional identifiers in the SQS3 as described above, you also need to complete the steps described in chapter 4.6.
6 Verify the setup
Upon completion of the configuration start the SQS3 operator guidance. There is a new status light representing the newly configured MTF6000 at the right side of the screen. This status light should be green.

7 Troubleshooting

7.1 No connection from SQS3 to MTF 6000
The status light that represents the MTF6000 in the SQS3 operator guidance remains red. This means that the SQS3 is unable to establish a network connection to the MTF6000.

Cause

Solution

Try to connect ToolsTalk MT to the controller via

of the MTF6000 with a network administrator. Correct

them if needed.

The network settings of the PC that hosts the SQS3 do not meet the settings of the network it is in. No other network device can be reached from the PC.

Use the ping command to reach other devices on the network. If there's no connection to other network devices, verify the network settings of the PC with a network administrator and correct them if needed.

In the SQS3 Configurator, open the Network tab of

MTF6000 is incorrectly configured in the SQS3.

Check the IP address and the Open Protocol port

configured for the MTF6000. Correct them if needed.

The Open Protocol port is always 4545.

7.2 Tool not enabled/tightening program not selected
The status light that represents the MTF6000 in the SQS3 operator guidance is green but the SQS3 cannot properly enable the tool and select a tightening program when a tightening needs to be done. The display of the MTF6000 shows the word "Disabled" in the top right corner of the Result view

Cause

Solution

There is no program number on the MTF6000 that matches the Tightening program assigned to the bolt case or bolt location in the SQS3 configuration.

In the SQS3 configuration verify that the Tightening program assigned to the bolt case or bolt location has a matching program number on the MTF6000. Correct it if needed.

The setting Select source of the MTF6000 is incorrect.

Connect ToolsTalk MT to the MTF 6000, open the Controller settings and change Select source to "Protocol/ToolsTalk MT". For details see chapter 4.4.

Open Protocol is disabled on the MTF6000.

Connect ToolsTalk MT to the MTF6000, open the Controller settings and switch Open Protocol to "Enabled". For details see chapter 4.3.

complete the steps of chapters 4.6 and 5.3 as well.

7.4 No traces available in SQS3
After a bolt has been tightened, the trace is not available in the trace view on the SQS3 operator guidance. The trace is also not available from the web UI for SQS3 result data.

Cause

Solution

The SQS3 is not configured to download OK or NOK traces from the MTF6000.

In the SQS3 Configurator open the configuration of the MTF6000 and select the Advanced tab. Tick the checkboxes for OK and/or NOK traces as needed.
