3.4. Serial communication cable this cable enables serial communication interface between your computer and the controller via standard rs232. This cable is required for calibration and data retrieval. 3.5. Software cd e-rad software cd contains 2 custom made windows based programs for the e- rad sy...
Page 11: Caution
Caution **before powering up the unit perform the following steps** 1. Align control cable notch to the notch in the controller. Push the connector in forward and turn clock wise at least ¼ turn until the plug locks into the connector on the case; 2. Align power cable notch to the notch in the contr...
Page 12: 5. Operation Instructions
5. Operation instructions this section details the operation of the e-rad system. When the tool is in operation, the reaction arm rotates in the opposite direction to the output square drive and must be allowed to rest securely against the adjacent bolt or a near by solid object that is on the same ...

• to change units of measurements press on units. The units will cycle between ft.Lb, nm and kg.F. • set the torque to the setting required for your application. • to perform a torque operation: o make sure the torque setting is correct o couple the hand held tool with socket onto the bolt o make su...
Page 14: 6. Calibration Procedure
6. Calibration procedure all e-rad systems leaving new world technologies inc are calibrated in the lab prior to shipping. A calibration certificate (see appendix a) is issued for each tool and shipped with each tool. 6.1. Calibration equipment basic requirements: • personal computer with cd-rom and...

6.6. Calibration testing if you choose to optimize your individual torque requirement on your e-rad, perform the following procedures. 1. Turn on/off switch on the controller to on position; 2. Set the display to which ever torque value(s) you wish to optimize. 3. Set the tool in forward direction a...
Page 19: 7. Data Retrieval
6.7. Calibration adjustment example 1. Example: e-rad set to 1800 ftlbs = transducer reads out 1750 ftlbs. 2. All though this value is within +/- 3%, we can narrow this difference. 3. By following steps 1 through 7 in section (6.5) re-connect to the e- rad calibration software. 4. Once connected, in...
