1.4.3 Designations
Application block A maximum of 48 applications/tightening applications can be programmed in one communication unit
(KE). Up to 8 tightening applications may be controlled simultaneously via the eight available applica-
tion blocks (FO1 ... FO8) if they do not access the tightening channels simultaneously. Up to 40 tigh-
tening positions can be coordinated within a tightening application.
CF350 The CF350 mass storage device is a compact flash card (CF card) for the X6C1 slot of the compact
system (CS351) and the communication unit (KE).
DMS Strain gauges. Measuring device that changes its electrical resistance even with slight deformation
and is thus used as a strain gauge sensor.
KE Communication unit. Used to control several control units and simultaneously also for communication
with the partner controllers.
Ring memory Limited storage is available in the ring memory. The oldest data will be overwritten by the latest data
if more storage is required.
Tightening process The tightening process describes the entire tightening procedure including the various individually pa-
rameterized tightening program steps (such as "finding", "screwing in" "tightening", etc.) until the tar-
get function is reached (torque, angle, etc.).
Tightening application Within a tightening application (also called application), 1 to a maximum of 40 tightening channels are
coordinated.
Tightening controller A tightening controller is either a compact system or a tightening controller in a modular system with
several tightening units.
Tightening channel A tightening channel comprises the necessary components for a tightening. This includes the com-
plete tightening spindle, controller, servo amplifier, and connector cable.
Tightening program The tightening program coordinates the tightening process/sequence. It is divided into various tigh-
tening steps, where tightening parameters are set.
Tightening position The tightening position is the defined location where the tightening is performed using a tightening
channel and a tightening program.
Tightening system A tightening system is a complete system with all tightening channels that are needed to carry out the
defined tightening case.
Tightening cell A tightening cell is designated as the installed hardware for at least one tightening channel and at least
one data interface for communication with the operating program or the partner controller. This inclu-
des the corresponding tightening programs and tightening applications.

5 Data interface
Torque threshold The torque threshold is an auxiliary variable to measure the angle of turn for a target or monitoring fun-
ction. The function monitoring of the angle is started as soon as the torque measured at the bolt rea-
ches the value specified as torque threshold for the first time. Afterwards, the torque threshold has no
more influence on the tightening process, except for correcting the angle.
Chord angle The chord angle is an additional parameter for determining the gradient.
Yield point process This process uses the gradient calculation in the measurement transducer. The bolt is tightened until
its yield point (elastic limit to plastic deformation) is reached.
System stick A USB stick included in the scope of delivery that, amongst others, contains the installation program
for the operating system BS350, as well as the firmware and documentation.
Monitoring function The monitoring function keeps track that the upper and lower limits are complied with during the tigh-
tening process by checking a monitoring parameter (e.g. gradient).
If the monitoring function has switching capabilities, the tightening step will be terminated immediately
if a limit is exceeded. If it is has no switching capabilities, the step result changes to NOK, even if the
target parameter has been reached.
Monitoring parameter The monitoring parameter is the measured variable (e.g. gradient) of a tightening step that must be
maintained within specific limits, in order for a tightening process to be performed safely. Exceeding
the limits can lead to the tightening step being terminated.
Angle correction The angle correction is an additional parameter to measure the angle of turn. Since the angle of turn
is never measured directly on a bolt, but above the output drive, there is a small deviation between the
measured angle and the angle on the bolt as a result of the torsion of the output drive due to the tor-
que. This deviation can be avoided with an angle correction at the end of the tightening process (never
during tightening!). The angle value measured at the end of tightening after falling below the torque
threshold is then used as the target or last monitoring parameter (the torsion of the output drive has
then reset itself).
Target function The target function controls the process sequence of the tightening step by monitoring the target pa-
rameter (e.g. torque) and ends the step if the parameter value has reached its target value.
Target parameter The target parameter is the measured variable (e.g. torque) of a tightening step, which must reach a
specific value (target value) for a tightening process to be performed successfully. The tightening step
is terminated once the target value has been reached.
Additional function The additional function determines more parameters for the tightening step. Additional functions influ-
ence the tightening process (e.g. start-up suppression, speed setting) but cannot interrupt it. They do
not carry out an OK/NOK evaluation.
Additional parameters Additional parameters are the parameter values in a tightening step, which influence the tightening
process (e.g. target speed, torque threshold), but which cannot interrupt the tightening process.

Danger to life, risk of injury due to electric shock!
Only devices, electrical components, and cables with protective extra-low voltage (PELV) may be
connected to connections and terminals with voltages of 0 to 50 V.
Only connect voltages and electric circuits that are safely isolated from dangerous voltages. Safe
isolation is obtained by means of isolating transformers, safe optocouplers, or battery operation
disconnected from the mains.
Dangerous movements can be caused by improper actuation of connected motors. Causes can be any
of the following:
• Careless or improper wiring
• Errors while operating the components
• Incorrect input of parameters prior to commissioning
• Error in the measurement transducer or signal transducer
• Defective components
• Software errors
These errors can occur immediately after the system has been switched on or after operating for an inde-
finite time.
The monitoring devices in the drive components almost completely eliminate malfunctions in the connec-
ted drives. However, in view of personal safety, especially that involving risk of injury and/or damage to
equipment, this alone is not sufficient. Until the installed monitoring devices become fully effective, faulty
drive movements, whose magnitude depends on the controller type and the operating condition, must be
anticipated.
DANGER
Dangerous movements!
Danger to life, risk of serious injury or damage to equipment!
Ensure personal safety, either by means of monitoring devices or by superior measures directly
on the system.
The measures depend on the specific system conditions and are determined based on a risk and
error analysis. The safety regulations applicable to the system must be taken into consideration.
Unintended machine movements or other malfunctions may occur when the safety equipment is
switched off, bypassed, or not activated.
Preventing accidents, injury, and/or damage to equipment:
Do not enter the machine's and machine parts' area of travel. Possible measures to prevent unin-
tended entry of persons include:
– Protective barriers
– Protective enclosures
– Protective covers
– Photocells
Barriers and covers must be rigid enough to withstand the maximum possible momentum.
The emergency OFF switch must be easily accessible in the immediate vicinity. Check the func-
tion of the emergency OFF system before commissioning. If the emergency OFF switch malfunc-
tions, do not operate the device.
Protection against unintended start-up by means of an emergency OFF circuit.
Safely bring the drives to a standstill before accessing or entering the danger zone.
Additionally secure vertical axes from falling or dropping after the motor is switched off by:
– Mechanical lock on the vertical axis
– External braking/catching/clamping device
– Sufficient weight compensation of the axis
Switch electrical equipment to a de-energized state at the mains and protect it against being
switched on again during:
– Maintenance and repair
– Cleaning
– Long disruptions in operation
Avoid operating high-frequency, remote-controlled, or radio devices in the vicinity of the device
electronics and cables. If this cannot be avoided, check the device and the system for malfunc-
tions in all working positions. In some cases, a special EMC inspection of the entire system may
be necessary.
In the following cases, install a torque support at the ErgoSpin hand-held nutrunner:
– ESM as of 10 Nm
– ESA or ESV as of 40 Nm
Use a torque support if tightenings with higher torques are to be performed with a hand-held
tightening spindle.
2.6.4 Protection against magnetic and electromagnetic fields during operation and assembly
Magnetic and electromagnetic fields that surround live conductors and the permanent magnets of motors
can pose a serious risk to persons with pacemakers, metal implants, or hearing aids.
DANGER
Health risk for persons with pacemakers, metal implants, and hearing aids in
the immediate vicinity of electrical equipment!
Magnetic and electromagnetic fields may interfere with and impair the function of pacemakers or hea-
ring aids as well as of metal implants. This may lead to a health risk for the persons concerned.
Persons with pacemakers and metal implants are prohibited from entering the following areas:
– Areas in which electrical devices and parts are assembled, operated, or commissioned
– Areas in which motor parts with permanent magnets are stored, repaired, or assembled
If persons with pacemakers need to enter these types of areas, a physician must first be consul-
ted. The interference resistance of current or future pacemaker versions varies greatly. For this
reason, no generally applicable rules exist.
Persons with metal implants, metal shrapnel in the body, or hearing aids must consult a physician
before entering these types of areas, as adverse health effects must be expected in these areas.
CAUTION
Hot surfaces possible on motor housings and gearboxes!
Risk of injury! Risk of burns!
Do not touch device housing surfaces at heat sources! Risk of burns!
Do not touch housing surfaces of motors and gearboxes! Risk of burns!
Depending on the operating conditions, temperatures during or after operation may exceed
60 °C (140 °F).
After switching off the motors, allow them to cool down sufficiently before accessing them.
Wear protective gloves or do not work near hot surfaces.
For specific applications, the manufacturer must undertake measures on the end product, the
machine, or the system to prevent burn injuries during the end use. These measures must be in
accordance with the safety regulations. Examples of possible measures are: safety warnings, a
separating safety device (shielding or locking), and technical documentation.
Under unfavorable conditions, handling or assembling specific parts in an unsuitable manner could cause
injuries.
CAUTION
Risk of injury due to improper handling!
Injury due to crushing, shearing, cutting, impact!
Observe the general construction and safety regulations for handling and assembly.

This chapter contains information on the scope of delivery and the system require-
ments for the Rexroth BS350 operating system.
If several programs have to be active at the same time on the operating computer, we recommend a cor-
respondingly higher system performance (processor and working memory) as compared to the informati-
on of the respective operating system manufacturer.
Under Windows XP with SP2 or SP3, problems may result with the firewall if the BS350 user does not
have any administrator rights. In this case, the administrator should enable port 7072 for TCP/IP and port
7073 for UDP for the BS350.
This document explains how to commission the Rexroth Tightening System 350 with
the sequence test. This includes commissioning the CS351 compact system with
ErgoSpin hand-held nutrunner or a tightening spindle, as well as commissioning the
modular system with a tightening spindle. Commissioning primarily consists of sys-
tem construction, setting up the programming interface (Ethernet or USB), configura-
tion of the tightening channel, and creating tightening programs with the BS350
operating system. The connection of the tightening cell to a partner controller (PLC)
is not the subject of this chapter.
Information on the integrated logic is contained in the "Project planning" documenta-
tion of the Rexroth Tightening System 350.
4.1 Overview
4.1.1 General instructions
Commissioning a tightening cell with BT or SB is very similar. In this documentation a tightening cell with
BT will be shown for illustrative purposes.
Special information on the SB will be given in the description only if the steps for commissioning differ
between the BT and SB. Otherwise the same procedure will apply.
CAUTION
Incorrect connections and open slots
Incorrect cable connections and open slots may lead to damages to the system and injuries.
Always connect all cables correctly and completely before switching the system on.
Close all free slots with dummy plates.
Before commissioning, check if a new service pack is available in the download section2) at
www.boschrexroth.com/schraubtechnik. Bosch Rexroth recommends installing new service packs prior
to commissioning as they rectify all known errors. Additionally, find the following in the download section:
NOTE
Danger to system safety
A firmware download or a backup/restore during operation endangers system safety.
Before downloading firmware or performing a backup/restore, ensure that the tightening system
is not in operation.
1) The firmware for BS350 and the CS351, KE, and SE must have the same release version. It is per-
missible for the LT35x, LTU350/1, tightening spindle components, and ErgoSpin to have different
firmware versions than the tightening controller.
2) www.boschrexroth.com/business_units/brc/en/information_en/software_en/download_se_en/in-
dex.jsp
A description on how to use the firmware updates and service packs can be found in the "Project plan-
ning" documentation of the Rexroth Tightening System 350.
In the start step of a tightening program, the calculation of the gradient values is parameterized using gra-
dient parameters. This is particularly important with yield-point controlled tightening processes. One of
these gradient parameters is the so-called filter interval that is used to improve suppression of output
drive-specific interferences in the gradient signal. The filter interval leads to an extended smoothing of the
gradient graph, but also delays gradient evaluation.
Information on the gradient parameters in general and on the filter interval in particular can be found in
the "Project planning" documentation of the Rexroth Tightening System 350.
The filter interval depends on the mechanical output drive component. Table 4–1 shows the filter intervals
for different output drives recommended by Rexroth.
Please find information on the commissioning of the Nexo portable radio nutrunner and on the definition
of tightening programs in the "Nexo" documentation.

tion of the Rexroth Tightening System 350!
The configuration of a tightening channel with BS350 includes logical linkage and parameter assignment
of all electronic and mechanical components involved in the tightening channel. The configuration window
(see Figure 4–14) opens when the following menu items have been selected:
• System → Tightening channel configuration in online mode (see page 55) and/or
• File → New → Tightening channel configuration in offline mode (see page 73).
Layout of the The configuration window of the BS350 displays (see Figure 4–14, from left to right):
configuration window • Component selection
• Configuration of the tightening channel as logically linked components subdivided into four columns
(from left to right):
– Name
– Symbol
– Parameter
– Notes
– Global parameters
The configuration has to be sent to the corresponding tightening channel upon creation. The same is
compared to the actual configuration (actual equipment) of the tightening channel. After the configuration
has been sent, errors (e.g. configuration conflicts) will be displayed in the configuration window.
For detailed information concerning troubleshooting, see chapter Troubleshooting from page 123.
The advantage of online configuration is that configuration and parameter assignment of components with
an electronic nameplate are automatically recognized.
Configuration of a tightening channel with ErgoSpin SlimLine and ErgoSpin GripLine is implemented au-
tomatically. You do not have to supplement the configuration. For further information on the automatic
configuration of an ErgoSpin tightening channel, see Configuring the tightening channel (page 108).
System components with an electronic nameplate are automatically recognized by the BS350 and listed
with the appropriate information, e.g.:
• ErgoSpin
• EC motor
• Measurement transducer
• Interface Modules
• Part no.
• Firmware version
• Battery monitoring
• Monitoring of the compact flash card
All the available interfaces are displayed. The X3C1 serial interface and the X7E1 Ethernet inter-
face are permanently installed. The other interfaces are not equipped1).
NOTE
Incorrect channel configuration
An incorrectly configured ErgoSpin VarioLine or pistolgrip nutrunner may result in faulty tightenings.
When working with the ErgoSpin VarioLine or pistolgrip nutrunner, always check that the compo-
nents stored on the hand-held nutrunner correspond to the actually equipped components and, if
necessary, correct the configuration with the operating program.
1) For possible interface assignments and parameterizations, see Setting up additional interfaces
(page 65).
To delete a component:
Click the appropriate symbol in the configuration sequence and press the [Del] button to delete the
component.
To add a component:
Add a permitted component (displayed in black) (see page 73).
A distinction is made between two cases:
– If the new component is to be added to an empty field then select the empty symbol field in
the configuration sequence and add a permitted component (=displayed in black) from the com-
ponent selection into the configuration sequence.
– If the new component is to be inserted between two components, then select the component
in the configuration sequence in front of which you wish to insert a new element. Then, insert a
component permitted (=displayed in black) within the configuration sequence.
Using the compact system (CS), the transducer function motor current ("Off", "Primary", "Redundancy")
can be configured, whereas the following restrictions apply (see Figure 4–17):
• The compact system (CS) cannot be used for current-controlled tightenings. That means that the mo-
tor current cannot be used for the primary measurement ("Primary").
The corresponding option in the channel configuration is deactivated.
• With the compact system for the ErgoSpin hand-held nutrunner (CS351E...), the motor current can
be used for the redundancy measurement. In compact systems for tightening spindles (CS351S...),
this function is, however, also deactivated.
CS351E… CS351S…
"Redundancy" is possible, Neither "Redundancy" nor
"Primary" not "Primary" is possible

Configuration ErgoSpin with open flat output drive with mechanical safety catch
In order to ensure perfect current feed of the motor, the motor of the ErgoSpin hand-held nutrunner is
adjusted after every switch-on of the Rexroth Tightening System. The alignment process takes one motor
rotation. This corresponds to an angle of turn at the output drive of 8° to 15°.
NOTE
Damage to the flat output drive
Only for software version V2.200 SP1 and lower:
When open flat output drives with mechanical safety catch are in zero position, i. e. when they are
open, they can only be moved in output drive spin direction. If the output drive direction of an open flat
output drive with mechanical safety catch does not comply with the alignment spin direction of the
hand-held nutrunner, the flat output drive may be damaged.
Always use the firmware of the servo amplifier (LTU350/1 or CS351) that is adjusted to the flat
output drive.
A special software with orientation to the right is available on request.
In the Rexroth Tightening System350 the alignment spin direction is directly adjusted by specifying the
output drive spin direction and the reverse spin direction, see Channel configuration of open flat output
drives on page 61.
Table 4–12 shows the necessary special firmware depending on the software version of the 350 operat-
ing system and the alignment and drive direction of rotation of the ErgoSpin hand-held nutrunner.

output drives Figure 4–20) select the output drive spin direction and, if necessary, reverse spin direction. Depending
on these two settings, the alignment spin direction of the motor is adjusted accordingly. In this way, you
can use flat output drives with counterclockwise spin direction and flat output drives with clockwise spin
direction.
Table 4–13 describes the parameters that you can set in the Flat output drive (F) parameter dialog.

Example
General The unit (Nm, Ftlb, Inlb, kpm, kgfm, and kgm) selected in the Unit torque list applies for the tightening
program and tightening channel and is used for tightening results data, graph displays, etc. The Spindle
overload and Perm. torque in the Spindle limits field is adapted to the selected unit.
Operating mode The 1-channel option is permanently activated with compact systems.
Channel The Automatic radio button is only active if there is a channel configuration with a hand-held nutrunner.
configuration In this case, you can choose between automatic and manual channel configuration.
With automatic channel configuration, system components with an electronic nameplate are automatical-
ly taken over in the configuration window and configured with the basic settings. A change in the hand-
held nutrunner is also automatically recognized and accepted by the automatic configuration, making the
tightening system immediately ready for operation. Serial number monitoring is inactive if the automatic
configuration is active.
If the Manual option is active, system components with an electronic name plate of the tightening channel
are recognized, but mechanical components (e.g. gearbox or straight output drive) must be configured
manually.
The option Serial number monitoring is used to detect the exchange of an electronic component.
If a component is exchanged, the serial number of the connected system component deviates from the
number stored in the channel configuration and a system error is generated.
Additional function With the additional function Hand-held nutrunner it is possible to switch on the hand-held nutrunner
function in a tightening spindle configuration in which no hand-held nutrunner was inserted.
In this operating mode, recognition of play on the start switch by the user is active (see Nutrunner start
(page 116)).
The threshold from which an evaluation is performed corresponds to the entry in the field Play on start
switch, evaluation from in the start step. The default value is 5% of the tightening spindle's nominal
torque.
Tightening programs 0, 1, 2, 3, and 99 are automatically transferred from the ErgoSpin hand-held
nutrunner to the tightening controller with the additional function Use tightening programs from
hand-held nutrunner (program 99 and 0 to 3).
Attention: The corresponding programs on the tightening controller are overwritten by the BS350 or TFT
display after the error message has been acknowledged (error code 382).
Nutrunner docking is configured with the additional function Nutrunner Docking, see Nutrunner docking
configuration (page 72).
With the additional function Socket tray coding, the type of coding for the socket tray is defined:
• Bit pattern
Every bit represents a slot in the socket tray. With bit coding, more than 1 slot can be displayed. For
example, for 3 slots, bit 1 and 2 are set. This means Slot 1 and 2 in the socket tray are selected.
• Decimal
Defines the socket tray slot. For example 3 represents slot 3 in the socket tray.
Spindle limits The displayed parameters for Perm. torque, Max. speed and Spindle overload are calculated on the
basis of the spindle data. They serve for plausibility checks of tightening programs. These values may not
be exceeded when assigning parameters to a tightening program! Settings at this point are not possible.
You can make the following settings in the Set up serial interface group:

IM24V
Click Accept to take over this data in the configuration for the tightening channel in the BS350.
In addition to the online configuration, the BS350 also allows for channel configurations to be generated
even if no tightening channel is connected. This may be helpful if, e.g., the channel configuration to be
generated is known before commissioning and can be done as preparatory work.
Only those components permitted in the configuration sequence are highlighted for selection, those not
allowed are grayed out! This ensures that the linked components in the configuration sequence are plau-
sible.
The global parameters are set in accordance with the online configuration (see Setting the global param-
eters (page 62)).
The configuration of the tightening channel can be stored as a file on the PC (see Sending and saving
(page 50)). It must be sent to the tightening controller before commissioning the tightening channel.
Tightening channel configurations created offline which contain either an ErgoSpin hand-held
nutrunner of type VarioLine (ESV) or of type pistol grip nutrunner (ESM) are not accepted by the tightening
controller.
In this context, see the information in section „Channel configuration created offline with an ErgoSpin
VarioLine (ESV) or pistol grip nutrunner (ESM)“ on page 108.
Programs from the machine capability examination are already included on the device at the time of deliv-
ery. You can use these programs as the basis for your own tightening programs.
Please find information on the commissioning of the Nexo portable radio nutrunner and on the definition
of tightening programs in the "Nexo" documentation.
The tightening program coordinates the tightening process or sequence. It is divided into various tighten-
ing steps, where tightening parameters are set.
Basic commissioning is carried out with small-scale tightening programs. They consist of a:
• Start step
• Single tightening step
• End step
The following describes how to generate programs for tightening and loosening a bolt.
The following entered data have to be adapted to the respective tightening channel configuration. Spindle
overload and max. speed, which can be read in the Spindle limits field in the configuration window of the
tightening channel, must not be exceeded.
The following entered data have to be adapted to the respective tightening channel configuration. The
max. speed, which can be seen in the Spindle limits field in the configuration window of the tightening
channel (see Figure 4–18), must not be exceeded.
The PLC assignment table defines the assignment of the control signals to the tightening controller's
physical interfaces. The tightening controller can be integrated into a system sequence with these control
signals. The following number of inputs and outputs are available on the interfaces:
Information on the configuration of the PLC assignment table is contained in the "Project planning" doc-
umentation of the Rexroth Tightening System 350.
Send the preset PLC assignment table to the tightening controller; it can also be stored as a file on the
PC (see Sending and saving (page 50)).
The detailed description of the control signals is contained in the "Project planning" documentation of the
Rexroth Tightening System 350.
The time on the tightening controller can be set if the controller is connected to the BS350. Set the time
via System → System time. Table 4–16 shows the possibilities for setting the time of the tightening con-
troller.
The time is logged, e. g. in the course of the tightening results output, enabling times to be assigned to
the tightening results data.
All tightening system outputs, e.g. printer or FTP, use the local time for the tightening system, taking the
time zone and, if necessary, the automatic daylight savings time change into consideration. This also ap-
plies to outputs in the BS350 like actual values or curves. The settings of the operating system are, how-
ever, not used! This is why there may be deviations between the PC time and the BS350 outputs.
The date and time can be manually set in the BS350. Additionally, the clock can be set automatically via
a so-called timeserver. In this case, the clock is synchronized with the timeserver clock whenever the sys-
tem is booted and periodically thereafter.
To indicate a timeserver:
1. In the BS350 operating system, click System → Tightening channel configuration
2. Double click the parameter field for the compact system.
The parameters dialog Rexroth BS350 - compact system appears.
3. Enter the name (or IP address) of the timeserver in the NTP server address field.
4. Assign the synchronization interval in the Sync interval field.
5. Click Accept to accept the settings.
CAUTION
Incorrect fixing
Incorrect fixing of the nutrunner or workpiece may lead to injuries and may damage to the device.
Make sure that the nutrunner and workpiece are fixed securely and tightly or that you have a good
grip on the hand-held nutrunner before starting the sequence test!

Click Accept to take over this data in the configuration for the tightening channel in the BS350.
If the configuration of the KE is already known before commissioning, it can be generated in offline mode.
For this purpose, select File → New → KE configuration in the BS350 menu bar. The following window
will appear:
The KE and its interfaces have to be configured and parameterized completely. To do this, double click
the respective line and configure according to Setting up installed interfaces (page 82).
The created KE configuration can be stored as a file on the PC (see Sending and saving (page 50)).
The configuration must be sent to the KE before commissioning.
To configure the tightening channels, select System → Tightening channel configuration and then se-
lect a tightening channel.
If the tightening channels all have the same configuration, only one tightening channel has to be config-
ured. The configuration can then be sent to all tightening channels involved in the tightening application
or stored as a file on the PC (see Sending and saving (page 50)).
If after its delivery, the control unit is operated directly next to a KE for the first time, the following sce-
nario occurs: the control unit is automatically converted to single-channel operation.
As a consequence of non-compliance with the following information an error may occur and both, the
tightening channel and the entire tightening controller may be disturbed.
The control unit controls and monitors the tightening process of up to two independent tightening chan-
nels per control unit. If you want to operate the control unit in single-channel operation, proceed as
follows:
1. Open the tightening channel configuration.
– Online configuration: System → Tightening channel configuration
– Offline configuration: File → New → Tightening channel configuration
2. Change the Operating mode of the first tightening channel from 2-channels (default) to 1-channel.
The Operating mode option is not displayed for the second tightening channel.
The control unit is configured for the single-channel operation.
Fig. 4–49: Motor current transducer function configuration for servo amplifiers
Depending on the servo amplifier selected, the following transducer functions can be implemented:
• With the servo amplifiers LTE350D and LTU350/1 only "Redundancy" is possible.
• For the servo amplifiers LTS350D, LT353, LT354 and LT355 "Redundancy" is preset. Primary" is
possible.
• With the servo amplifier LTU350/1S neither "Primary" nor "Redundancy" is possible.
Offline tightening channel configuration with expanded limits is possible if an EC motor (EC305?) is
selected. Additionally, an adjusted system box SB355 with an increased intermediate circuit voltage is
required.
By using the power reserves of the servo amplifier LT355 and/or LTS350 and the EC motor EC305 in
the Tightening System 350, the spindle limits of a stationary spindle of size 5 can be expanded as follows:
For an overview of the hardware requirements, see section BG5+ with increased performance (page 42)
in the "Project planning" documentation of the Rexroth Tightening System 350.
Please find information on the commissioning of the Nexo portable radio nutrunner and on the definition
of tightening programs in the "Nexo" documentation.
Proceed as listed in section Defining the tightening program (page 97) to generate a tightening program
for tightening and loosening a bolt. The generated tightening program has to be sent to all the tightening
channels involved in the tightening application. It can also be stored as a file on the PC (see Sending and
saving (page 50)).
Then test the function of the tightening program in each tightening channel with a sequence test (see
Sequence test (page 101)).
Example 1. To generate a tightening application, select File → New → Tightening applications in the BS350
menu bar.
2. Select a program number, e.g. 1 and assign a name to the tightening application, e.g. Test appli-
cation, by overwriting the existing program name "n. a" (not available). (If program number 0 is se-
lected, "n.a." is not displayed) (see Figure 4–52).
3. Click Application info and enter a comment for the tightening program in the Application info
dialog.
4. Confirm your comment with OK.
The Application info dialog closes and the text Application info is underlined. Move the mouse
over the button and the comment is displayed as a tool tip.

14. Select Accept to save these data to the tightening application.
For information on the SE PLC assignment table, see Configuration SE/CS PLC assignment table
(page 77).
The PLC assignment table defines the assignment of the control signals to the KE's physical interfaces
(Arcnet, fast inputs/outputs, module slots). The KE can be integrated into a system sequence with these
control signals. A total of 512 control signals can be configured via all PLC cards.
Basic commissioning takes place with a sequence test and therefore specific programming of this PLC
assignment table is not necessary. However, a predefined PLC assignment table has to be sent to the KE
to make it ready for operation.
A connection between the PC and KE is required to load the predefined PLC assignment table in online
mode (see Connecting the PC for programming (page 46)).
Use System → KE PLC assignment table to load the current KE PLC assignment table.
To create a PLC assignment table in offline mode, select File → New → KE PLC assignment table. The
following dialog opens:
Information on the configuration of the PLC assignment table is contained in the "Project planning" doc-
umentation of the Rexroth Tightening System 350. Related examples are contained as well as in the "Proj-
ect planning" documentation of the Rexroth Tightening System 350.
The detailed description of the control signals is contained in the "Project planning" documentation of the
Rexroth Tightening System 350.
The time for the KE can be set when it is connected to the BS350. This will automatically set the time of
the connected SEs.
The KE time is logged, e.g. in the course of the tightening results output, enabling times to be assigned
to the tightening results data. To set the KE time, select System → System time. The following dialog
opens:
The time zone must be selected from the list (for Germany: time zone, see Figure 4–55). The time will
automatically change to summer or winter time by activating the option underneath the list.
The option PC time displays the PC time and date. Set system time once synchronizes the KE clock to
the PC clock.
The option System time displays the saved KE time and the saved KE date. To make a change, click the
desired digit field and press or
Information on the time synchronization of the tightening system using the NTP server can be found in the
"Project planning" documentation of the Rexroth Tightening System 350.
The differences from the sequence test of a tightening program in the BS350 (see Sequence test
(page 78)) are described here.
To carry out the sequence test for a tightening application, proceed as described in Sequence test
(page 78).
Tightening spindles To start the tightening application to tighten the bolts, select:
clockwise • KE in the channel selection
• the application number in the application selection, e.g. 1: Test application.
• When Start is selected, the tightening application is started.
Tightening spindles When Loosen is selected, the loosening program (Ccw, no. 99) will be started simultaneously in all the
counterclockwise tightening channels in the selected tightening application.
This function is supported from version V2.200 of the Rexroth Tightening System 350.
The online-configuration of the tightening channel is implemented semi-automatically, i.e. all components
with electronic nameplate are configured and parameterized automatically. Mechanical components are
not equipped with such an electronic nameplate. However, in the BS350, these components have to be
configured and parameterized manually. Furthermore, manual re-configuration of the tightening channel
is also required after the tightening spindle or the ErgoSpin hand-held nutrunner has been replaced.
The saved ("automatic") channel configuration eliminates the manual re-configuration step upon nutrun-
ner replacement. This function works as follows: Upon initial online- or offline configuration of the tighten-
ing channel, the configuration files are saved directly to the hand-held nutrunner
• For a tightening channel with ErgoSpin hand-held nutrunner,
• directly to the extension memory of the initial measurement transducer of the tightening channel for
a tightening channel with tightening
spindle. This way, a complete hand-held nutrunner respectively spindle configuration can be stored. Pre-
viously saved configurations are overwritten.
When loading the saved configuration, the channel configuration is calculated automatically, e.g. maxi-
mum spindle torque or maximum speed.
Saved ("automatic") For tightening spindles, the following prerequisites have to be met to be able to save a created channel
channel configuration configuration:
The measurement transducer 1 is of the DMC type.
If there are two measurement transducers, the configuration is saved to the transducer that is only con-
nected to one CAN line (MC1).
Other measurement transducers are not supported for this function. There will be no error messages
either.
When the spindle configuration is sent, it is additionally saved to the DMC. In this, an old config-
uration will be overwritten.
Loading channel The following is required for reading in the saved configuration:
configuration The value of the Channel configuration option is "Automatic".
The hand-held nutrunner is detected automatically and the data are imported into the tightening channel
configuration. With a Varioline hand-held nutrunner, a configuration has to be stored to the device once.
Then, it is detected automatically, too. No further user intervention is required.
With tightening spindles, the tightening controller first tries using a configuration saved to the DMC. This
means that the tightening controller reads the saved configuration when a tightening spindle with saved
channel configuration is used. The read configuration is compared to the electronic tightening compo-
nents detected (e.g. measurement transducer).
• If the saved spindle components and the spindle components detected are identical, the saved con-
figuration is accepted automatically. There is no more need to re-configure manually using the oper-
ating system BS350.
• If the saved tightening channel configuration and the spindle components detected automatically dif-
fer, the channel has to be re-configured in the operating system BS350 and the data have to be sent
to the controller.
However, if the tightening channel is designed with tightening spindle without saved configuration or if
the saved data are invalid, the channel has to be re-configured in the operating system BS350 . After-
wards, the data have to be sent to the controller. Additionally, the error message1111 "Channel config-
uration missing" is issued. This procedure is identical to the behavior known from previous versions
when there was no configuration saved to the controller.
NOTE
Incorrect channel configuration
By replacing mechanical components or the measurement transducer (DMC), the saved channel con-
figuration may deviate from the actual configuration. Thus, erroneous tightenings may be the result.
After having replaced mechanical components or the measurement transducer (DMC) always re-
configure the tightening channel. Use the operating program BS350. Finally, save this new con-
figuration to the hand-held nutrunner or tightening spindle, see Saved ("automatic") channel con-
figuration on page 102.
NOTE
Adaptes spindle component efficiency
The efficiency of the spindle components were partially optimized in the BS350 V2.300 data base. If
the channel configurations created wit these spindle components are sent to the tightening controller,
the physical torques of the bolt may change slightly with respect to the "old" channel configuration,
data base < V2.300.
Deleting channel Use Data → Delete SE/CS → Configuration in the BS350, to delete the saved channel and spindle
configuration configuration data on the tightening controller. Furthermore, this function deletes the spindle configura-
tion data in the extended memory of the DMC of the tightening spindle.
All hand-held nutrunners are recognized automatically (with the exception of VarioLine). As a result, an
operating system is not always required to configure and program the tightening channel, depending on
the compact system used:
• With the CS351E-G or CS351E-G IL compact system, you can use the TFT- display instead.
• With the CS351E-D or CS351E-DIL Compact System, aBS350 operating system is required.
The following describes the special features for commissioning a tightening channel that consists of in-
dividual components (LTU350/1, LTS350D/LTE350D, SE, VM) and an ErgoSpin.

LED displays Three LEDs are located on the front plate of the servo amplifier and provide information on the following
operating states:
Motor contactor Information on the position and locations of the PIN plug on the LTU350/1 can be found in Table 4–20
control and Figure 4–58.
Find information on the position and location of switch S2 at the LTS350D/LTE350D in Table 4–21 and
Figure 4–59.
CAUTION
Incorrect setting on the LTU350/1
An incorrect setting of the PIN plug can endanger operating personnel.
The position of the PIN plug determines the availability of the motor-breaker function. The setting
must be made application-specific in the LTU350/1 and in the BS350.
The motor contactor control is implemented via the start switch on the ErgoSpin and is thus inde-
pendent of the position of the PIN plug. The motor-breaker is thus guaranteed if the start switch
is released.
In position 2, the emergency-OFF is additionally involved in the motor contactor control via the
VM350.
Incorrect setting on the LTS350D/LTE350D
An incorrect setting of the S2 switch can endanger operating personnel.
LT350D: The position of the S2 switch determines the availability of the motor-breaker function.
The S2 switch determines the function of the motor-breaker VM350 according to table 9. The
selected position of switch S2 has to match "motor-breaker VM350" in the channel configuration
LTE350D to ensure the servo amplifier is operational (on delivery S2 = 0).
More detailed information on motor breaker circuits is contained in the "Project planning" documentation
of the Rexroth Tightening System 350.
Fuses The intermediate circuit of the servo amplifier is protected by two safety fuses. If these fuses blow (melt),
the BTB LED changes from green to red. In this state, operation is no longer possible.
These safety fuses are located on the rear of the servo amplifier and must be replaced in the case de-
scribed above (for removal, see Figure 4–60).
PIN 1 and 2 are equipped with a jumper at the factory to ensure that the motor is ready for operation.
The standard configuration of the ErgoSpin tightening channel is automatically configured during com-
missioning. No configuration changes are required for basic commissioning. The configuration can also
be implemented manually at System → Tightening channel configuration (see Offline configuration:
(page 73)), if you are using deviating versions, additional components, or working in offline mode.
General information on sending files can be found at Sending and saving (page 50).
Channel configuration created offline with an ErgoSpin VarioLine (ESV) or pistol grip nutrunner
(ESM)
For reasons of securing the tightening system, the following restriction applies to tightening channel con-
figurations created offline which contain an ErgoSpin of type VarioLine (ESV) or of type pistol grip nut-
runner (ESM): the tightening controller does not accept this tightening channel configurations. The
tightening channel configuration can be sent to the tightening controller (Data → Send … or
Data → Send to …), it is, however, not accepted.
If such tightening channel configuration has been sent to the tightening controller, the BS350 outputs the
following message:
The values stored on the hand-held nutrunner (MFU factor, ident number, comment, test intervals,
output drive data) are not overwritten by sending.
Proceed as follows in order to change tightening channel configurations containing an ErgoSpin hand-
held nutrunner of type VarioLine (ESV) or of type pistol grip nutrunner (ESM):
1. Load the tightening channel configuration from the tightening controller.
– Compact system: see „Loading the tightening channel configuration“ from page 55
– Modular system: see „Loading the KE configuration“ from page 82.
2. Adjust the tightening channel configuration.
– Compact system: see „Completing the tightening channel configuration“ from page 56
– Modular system: see „Configuring the tightening channels“ from page 94.
3. Send the changed tightening channel configuration to the tightening controller, see „Sending and
saving“ from page 50
The tightening channel configuration on the tightening controller has been changed.
If deviating tightening programs (0 to 3, 99) are already on the tightening controller, they will be overwrit-
ten after acknowledgement of error message code 382, if the additional function Use tightening pro-
grams from hand-held nutrunner (program 99 and 0..3) (see Additional function (page 62)) is
activated.
The tightening programs on ErgoSpin hand-held nutrunners supplied from the factory can be deleted.
NOTE
Loss of data
Tightening programs can be deleted in the hand-held nutrunner, if the tightening programs in theSE
need to be deleted with Data → Delete SE/CS ....
Before deleting, deactivate the additional function Use tightening programs from hand-held
nutrunner (program 99 and 0...3) and send it to the tightening channel.
Automatic initial Automatic commissioning is active if there is no existing channel configuration. Here, the components rec-
commissioning ognized by the tightening controller are transferred to the channel configuration without querying the user
and configured with a default value (SE, IM, LTU).
Automatic commissioning can be forced during later operation by simultaneously deleting the channel
configuration and PLC assignment table.
In doing so, the output drive components for the ESV and ESM are deleted automatically.
The PLC assignment table is generated automatically. To call up the configuration of the tightening chan-
nel, select System → Tightening channel configuration or the icon.
Automatic channel Automatic channel configuration is active if the Automatic option is selected under Channel in the global
configuration parameters (see Channel configuration (page 62)). Automatic channel configuration allows for example
to replace the ErgoSpin during operation (plug & run). The ErgoSpin data are then transferred to the
channel configuration without querying the user. All other components must be manually configured.
Control unit (SE) The PLC assignment table defines the assignment of the control signals to the tightening controller's
physical interfaces of the tightening controller (Arcnet, fast inputs/outputs, module slots) of the
SE352(M).
Compact system (CS) The assignment is largely specified for the compact system and does not need to be changed for basic
commissioning. You can, however, optionally specify the input signal for the tool button on the hand-held
nutrunner.
For this, proceed as follows:
1. Click Edit in the open assignment table.
2. Click the ErgoSpin 0.3 input.
3. Click << to remove the existing signal.
4. Click the desired input signal (e.g. ResRs).
5. Click the ErgoSpin 0.3 input.
6. Click >> to assign the signal.
The ResRs signal is displayed for the ErgoSpin 0.3 input (see Figure 4–63)
For information on offline configuration, see chapter Configuration SE/CS PLC assignment table
(page 77)
1) The machine capability examination is always implemented with an external, independent measuring
system. This measuring system provides the reference value. During the MCE, the measurement re-
sults from the tightening system and the results from the reference measuring system are adjusted
using the MCE factor, if the results deviate from each other slightly.
Program selection can be implemented via 24 V signals (IM24V interface module), a field bus (IMpdp or
IMdev interface module) or, with the CS351E-G, directly via the TFT.
If no program is selected via one of these interfaces, program 0 is selected as standard. Loosening pro-
gram 99 is set via a CW/CCW reversal switch.
If the tightening programs stored in the ErgoSpin are to be automatically loaded in the tightening control-
ler (e.g. when the ErgoSpin is exchanged), the additional function Use tightening programs from hand-
held nutrunner (program 99 and 0 to 3) must be activated in the channel configuration (see also Addi-
tional function (page 62) and Chapter Storing the tightening programs (page 110)).
If deviating tightening programs (0 to 3, 99) are already on the tightening controller, they will be overwrit-
ten after acknowledgement of error message code 382, if the additional function Use tightening pro-
grams from hand-held nutrunner (program 99 and 0..3) (see Additional function (page 62)) is
activated.
In the BS350, the Data → ErgoSpin tightening programs menu item can be used to compare varying
tightening programs in the tightening controller and hand-held nutrunner. Different programs are highlight-
ed in red (see Figure 4–63):
The changed program is assigned to the tightening controller or ErgoSpin with the arrow buttons >> and
<<. You must then send this assignment to the tightening system using Send.
Tightening programs ErgoSpin or Tightening programs SE/CS opens the tightening programs from
the ErgoSpin or the tightening controller for editing.
The optional barcode scanner for the versions SlimLine, GripLine, and VarioLine of the ErgoSpin hand-
held nutrunner is available as of V2.200 of the Rexroth Tightening System 350.
The Configuring the tightening channel does not differ between ErgoSpin hand-held nutrunners with or
without optional additional module "barcode scanner". The only distinctive feature is that hand-held nut-
runners with barcode scanners have a PE-number.
The barcode scanner within the hand-held nutrunner can be selected as ID-code source and can be con-
figured manually. The barcode scanner settings can be modified using the following:
• CS/KE: System → Tightening cell data → Scanner → Scanner in the hand-held nutrunner
• SE352M: System → SE data → Scanner → Scanner in the hand-held nutrunner
The following setting options are available:
• Activate or deactivate barcode scanner
• Valid (permitted) barcode types, the length of the same, and whether the corresponding barcode
type is active
There are several options for the length of the corresponding barcode:
– Entry of a fix length, e.g. "12"
– Entry of 2 fixed lengths, e.g. "4;8"
– Entry of a length range, e.g. "3–9"
– No length restriction, i.e. "all" or ""
• Barcode-specific options, such as the "Security Level"
• Time-dependent parameters, i.e.
– Activation time
– Release time
– Signal time
– Delay during continuous operation
Table 4–23 shows the as-delivered-state of this time-dependent parameters.
After configuration of the barcode scanner within the ErgoSpin hand-held nutrunner, there are the follow-
ing options:
• Updating the configuration data
• Sending the configuration data to the hand-held nutrunner

Press the start switch (1) on the hand-held nutrunner and hold until the hand-held nutrunner automatically
switches off.
Releasing the start switch (1) aborts the tightening process. The aborted tightening process is evaluated
by the tightening controller:
• If the torque threshold for play on the start switch (default value: 5% of the nominal torque of the
hand-held nutrunner) was not exceeded, the tightening is not evaluated. This process is interpreted
as "Play at start switch" and ignored (i.e. OK = 0 and NOK = 0, both LEDs are off).
• If the torque threshold was exceeded, the tightening is evaluated as faulty (NOK) and the red LEDs
are illuminated (see Acknowledging a faulty tightening process (page 117)).
The direction of rotation for the nutrunner is determined by the algebraic sign for the speed in the tight-
ening program. The description in this section applies in case a positive speed is set in the tightening pro-
gram. With a negative speed, the description for clockwise/counterclockwise revolution has inverse
effects.
The direction of rotation for the nutrunner can be changed to tighten and loosen bolts. The direction is
changed using the CW/CCW reversal switch (2) on the hand-held nutrunner (see Figure 4–64).
The setting for the direction of rotation of the nutrunner is visible on the CW/CCW reversal switch (2)
• Switch position towards right : Clockwise rotation, program in accordance with the selected pro-
gram (basic setting: program 0)
• Switch position towards left : Counterclockwise rotation, program 99, cannot be changed.
If you make a change during a tightening process, it will only take effect in the next tightening process.
After the compact system has been switched on, the tool button must be pressed before you can start
the first tightening.
For information on how to change the function of the tool button (3) using the PLC assignment table (con-
trol signals), see SE/CS PLC assignment table (page 111).
ATTENTION!
Incorrect motor alignment
When first starting the nutrunner after switching the tightening channel on, make sure that the output
drive can turn freely to allow for correct motor alignment.
Otherwise, the measurement accuracy may be impaired while the torque is registered!
When the nutrunner turns for the first time after the device was switched on, it must not turn on
the bolt! The system always has to align the motor first. This is shown by a short vibration (1 s) of
the nutrunner. Thereafter, tightening can be started.
The motor is re-aligned every time the device is switched on!
The CC-ErgoSpin can only be used with servo amplifier firmware version 01V08 or higher. Make sure that
servo amplifier firmware version 01V08 or higher is installed.
The CC-ErgoSpin channel is configured and parameterized using the "BS350 operating system (V2.300
SP1 or higher).
The CC-ErgoSpin does not provide the setting option "Redundancy factor". The CC-ErgoSpin is exclu-
sively set using the "MCE factor". The "MCE factor" can be adjusted in the range 0.500 to 2.000. The
nutrunner torque derived from power supply was adjusted to a MCE factor of 1,000 using a reference
measuring system at the factory.
When the nutrunner is started, it requires an increased amount of current for mass acceleration. As the
CC-ErgoSpin detects the torque indirectly using the present motor current, this current peak may cause
the system to reach the programmed target torque early and to terminate or cancel the tightening
sequence.
To avoid the abortion of the tightening sequence, use the function "Start-up suppression". The "start-up
suppression" is the time in ms after the tightening step has been started during which the tightening
process is not evaluated. Therefore, the current peak during nutrunner start-up is not included in the
evaluation.
The step start-up is only monitored if the speed is increased as compared to the previous step (positive
speed change).
CAUTION
Risk of damage to persons and property due to improper handling!
If the nutrunner is started on a bolt that is already tightened, the bolt may be torn off or the nutrunner
may turn around the bolt at a certain angle. This angle depends on the set speed and the duration of
the "start-up suppression". Depending on the tightening case the nutrunner turning around the bolt
may injure the operator (e.g. crushing).
Bear this in mind when setting the "start-up suppression".
It is advisable to use the function "start-up test".
To ensure the tightening is of a high quality, it is advisable to carry out a tightening case analysis
for every tightening case. For more information on this, please read the chapters "Tightening pro-
cesses" and "Working with the System" in 3 608 878 302 Rexroth System 350 project planning.
• With the CC-CS351, module slot A is not displayed in the tightening channel configuration.
"HMS" firmware field bus modules in slot A are not supported by the channel configuration. For this
reason, all field bus functions are disabled.
• With the CC-CS351, the "motor current transducer function" is set to "primary" and cannot be
adjusted.
The auto configuration sets the transducer function to "primary transducer" for the servo amplifier
and to "off" for the hand-held nutrunner. This cannot be changed. This is automatically done for un-
configured systems following a restart.
• The CC-ErgoSpin does not support the function "transducer test".
The "standard" ErgoSpin executes the transducer test outside of the tightening. The ErgoSpin reads
measured values from the measurement transducer.
The CC-ErgoSpin records measured values via the motor current when turning the spindle. For
operator safety reasons this is not possible in the transducer test.
The portable Nexo radio nutrunner can be connected from V2.300 of the Rexroth Tightening System 350.
Please find information on the Rexroth Nexo portable radio nutrunner in the "Nexo" documentation.

This chapter describes errors which can occur when working with the Rexroth
Tightening System 350 and provides troubleshooting advice.
5.1.1 Overview
The detailed description of the control signals is contained in the "Project planning" documentation of the
Rexroth Tightening System 350.
A list with error codes and the relevant error texts are supplied in PDF with the BS350. All error codes
can also be found in the error list (see Complete error list from page 161).
The error code assignment table is divided as follows:
Errors in the Tightening System 350 are divided into the following classes:
* Errors of error class 5 are not displayed at the communication partner for the Open Protocol), the so-called "Open
Interface".
NOTE
Damages caused by restarting the system too fast
Restarting the system too fast causes damages to the control and power electronics.
If you switch off the control and power electronics and restart the same just once, you
have to wait 10 seconds before switching them on again.
If you switch off the control and power electronics and restart the same numerous
times, you have to wait 30 seconds before switching them on again.
Switching the control and power electronics on and off will acknowledge all tightening channel errors.

The reset circuit of the VM is error-dominant, i.e. if an error is present, a ready-for-operation mode cannot
be forced, even when pressing the reset button constantly.
NOTE
Damages to components and parts
If the reset button on the VM is pressed during a tightening process, the spindles run out. In an
extreme case, this can lead to the bolt heads being torn off.
Do not press the reset button during a tightening process!
On the front panel of the LT, there are two LEDs to display the operating state and a reset button which,
when pressed, initiates a restart of the SE and the LT:

If the emergency OFF signal is interrupted during a tightening, e.g. by the motor-breaker, the tightening
spindle is decelerated actively and tightening is stopped and an error message is sent to the SE. Depend-
ing on the tightening process state, a class 4 or a class 3 error is generated. As soon as the emergency
OFF signal is present and the contactor is operated, a class 4 error is automatically acknowledged in the
LT and the SE. If it is not automatically acknowledged in the LT, the SE must be switched off and switched
on again (e.g, with reset on the LT). Class 3 errors can be acknowledged via the ResF control signal or
via the error lists in the BS350. Then, a new tightening can be started.
On the front panel of the KE, there are two LEDs to display the operating state, as well as a restart button,
which, when pressed, initiates a restart of the KE:

the Rexroth Tightening System 350.
If the programmed KE or SE configuration is not identical to the actual configuration (actual equipment),
a so-called configuration conflict exists.
Taking the KE as an example, various configuration conflicts are described, which can be similarly applied
to the SE.
In the BS350, the error codes created, amongst others, by configuration conflicts are retrieved via:
• System test → SE/CS error list …
• System test → KE error list …
• System test → Tightening cell error list ... (all SE and KE)
The current configuration of the KE is loaded by selecting the System → KE configuration menu
(Fig. 5–7). A faulty slot is highlighted red in the KE configuration window.
KE configuration errors are also entered into the KE error list, which can be queried in the System
test → KE error list ... menu (Fig. 5–8).
The configuration conflict is remedied by creating agreement between the programmed configuration and
the actual configuration of the KE.
The configuration conflicts listed in the following can occur in all interface modules and slots of the KE!
Example The IMpdp interface module configured and parameterized in the BS350 is not inserted into the KE on a
Error code 2208 type A slot. The KE configuration window shows the error message highlighted red Module IMpdp
removed! (Fig. 5–7, 5–9) and the error code 2208 in the error list:
Remedy:
The missing IMpdp interface module must be inserted into the KE and then the restart button of the KE
must be pressed. Or the KE must be re-configured in the BS350 at System → KE configuration (with-
out IMpdp). To do this, double-click line A in the configuration window and select none as interface mod-
ule (Fig. 5–9):
Select Accept to take over this data into the program. Then, the new configuration file must be sent to
the KE with Data → Send or by selecting .
After it has been sent successfully, the error message highlighted red disappears.
If already configured interface modules are missing on the type B1 and B2 slots, the following error codes
are displayed in the error list:
Example The IMpdp interface module not yet configured in the KE is inserted into the previously unoccupied type
Error code 2205 A slot of the KE. The Module in <A> new error message appears highlighted red in the KE configuration
window (Fig. 5–10) and the error code 2205 appears in the error list:
Remedy:
Or the KE must be re-configured in the BS350 at System → KE configuration (Figure 5–10). For this,
double-click line A in the configuration window and parameterize the IMpdp interface module:
Selecting Accept, these data are transferred to the program. Then, the new configuration file must be sent
to the KE using Data → Send ... or by selecting .
After it has been sent successfully, the error message highlighted red disappears.
If you insert interface modules not yet configured into type A and B1 slots, the following error codes are
displayed in the error list:
Example The IMpdp interface module is inserted into the KE into the type A slot, on which, however, the IMser in-
Error code 2211 terface module is configured. The Module in <A> changed error message appears highlighted in red in
the KE configuration window and the error code 2211 appears in the error list:
Remedy:
The KE must be re-configured in the BS350 at System → KE configuration. The further procedure
is identical to the procedure in the example for error code 2205.
If other interface modules than the ones configured in the BS350 are inserted into the type A and B1
slots, the following error codes are displayed in the error list:
In the Error list menu item you can select whether all or only the non-acknowledged errors of the KE
should be displayed.
In the second line of an error entry, the respective error text is output. You can scroll up and down through
the error display with the arrow keys on the right-hand edge of the screen.
Class 3 errors can be acknowledged directly via the TFT display: To do this, log in using the button
and then press the Acknowledge button.
Class 1 errors cannot be acknowledged via the TFT display.
A non-acknowledged error is indicated by inverse representation of error code and error class.
In order to quickly and simply pinpoint the cause of an error, the respective data from the tightening sys-
tem are written in error lists. The tightening system thus demonstrably logs hardware and software errors,
configuration errors, malfunctions etc.
Three error lists are available in the BS350. You can find them under:
• System test → SE/CS error list …
• System test → KE error list … (Fig. 5–13)
• System test → Tightening cell error list ... (SE, KE, CS)
Figure 5–13 shows the contents and the configuration of the KE error list.
No separate explanation for the SE/CS error list and the Tightening cell error list is given here as they
are self-explanatory. The SE/CS error list documents the errors in the tightening channel and Tightening
cell error list documents the errors within the tightening cell.
The following data are listed on the Error list index card:
• l. No.: Consecutive number of the error
• Time/date Indicates date and time of the error.
• Description: Describes the error type
• Code: Error code (internal)
• Class: Error class
• Acknowledged: With class 1 and 4 errors, this indicates whether the error still exists, (0 = errors
exists, not acknowledged). With class 3 and 5 errors, this indicates whether an error was confirmed
(= acknowledged) (1 = acknowledged, 0 = not acknowledged).
Using Request, the error list is updated if the operating computer and the KE (or SE) are connected (no
permanent, automatic update is implemented).
Using Delete, the error list in the respective KE (SE or tightening cell) is deleted via BS350
Using Acknowledge, class 3 and 5 errors are confirmed 1).
1 Errors of error class 5 are not displayed at the communication partner for the Open Protocol), the so-
called "Open Interface".
In the Error frequency index card (Fig. 5–14), all errors from the respective error list are output sorted
according to their frequency.
Underneath the Error frequency list, the error time, number of errors, as well as the error frequency, ab-
solute and in percent, are displayed.
Error list and Error frequency can be sorted via the selection of any column, increasing or decreasing;
the selection of the respective column heading starts the sorting; the repeated selection reverses the sort-
ing, increasing or decreasing.
Preset sorting: The
• Error list is sorted as increasing, according to the time (last error at the top) (Fig. 5–13)
• Error frequency is sorted as increasing, according to the number of errors (most frequent error at
the top) (Fig. 5–14).
Using the sequence test, individual programs or applications are started manually (without control e.g. via
a PLC).
As soon as the control bar (Fig. 5–15) is activated, the selected KE/SE switches to test mode. As an in-
dication of this, the LED display on the front side of the KE/SE flashes green. In test mode, starting via
the control signals of a tightening program or an application is not possible. For normal operation, the test
mode must be deactivated again by switching off the sequence test on the PC (LED display of the KE/
SE stops flashing).
With this function, the MC1 and/or MC2 measurement transducers of the selected channel or the
ErgoSpin hand-held nutrunner series can be tested (nominal torque, deviation from the zero point, cali-
bration value, and actual values (torque, maximum torque value, angle)). Using Update, the actual values
are constantly updated.
Example The transducer test should be used to test the transfer of the measurement transducer signals to the
tightening cell. To do this, select System test → Transducer test and press the button Update . As
soon as a torque is generated at the spindle (e.g. with a socket wrench, torque wrench), the actual trans-
ducer values are displayed.
Pressing the Update button puts the tightening channel in the operating state "not ready for operation"!
Select one of the options (right in Fig. 5–17) to receive information about the selected components (SE,
LT, MC) of the tightening channel e.g. type number, firmware, temperature etc. For MC1 or MC2, an Error
list can be additionally called up.
5.6.5 KE info
Here, you receive information on the KE components, e.g. type number, firmware, temperature, etc.
Information on the entire tightening cell are displayed here (firmware, cycle counter, OK/NOK counter,
temperature, language packs, units, backup).
5.6.6.1 Firmware
The current firmware version of all components within the tightening cell is displayed here.
To ensure correct functioning, BS350 must have the same or a higher version than SE/CS and KE. The
LT, MC1, and MC2 components can have a firmware version that is different to that of the KE, SE, and
CS.
The firmware versions for the above-mentioned components, as well as the service packs and other infor-
mation can be found at:
• www.boschrexroth.com/schraubtechnik
In the BS350, use the Data → Firmware update ... function to install the firmware to all components.
More information on the installation of firmware updates and service packs on the electronic components
can be found in the "Project planning" documentation of the Rexroth Tightening System 350.
The number of KE tightening cycles and tightening channels and their components is listed in an overview
here.
The counter status of the OK/NOK counters can be viewed here. The affected tightening channel is dis-
played in Channel. In Program or CntSel0-5, the tightening program or the PLC signal is displayed to
which the counter value is assigned. Sum OK indicates the actual value and the set default value for the
maximum of OK evaluations. A C next to the actual value indicates that the counter is blocked by a counter
value change (PLC signal Ch y.x CntNOK = "high"). A triangle indicates the count direction of the count-
er. Sum NOK displays values, default values and counter directions according to the NOK values.
5.6.6.4 Temperature
The temperature of all active components of the entire tightening cell is displayed here. The "temperature
error" message can be defined further here.
The current settings for the torque measurement unit and the gradient calculated from the same are dis-
played here for:
• the tightening channel configuration (e.g. Nm, Nm/˚)
• the tightening program (e.g. Nm, Nm/˚).
In the channel configuration, the torque measurement unit is set under System → Tightening channel
configuration. The tightening programs can be converted to another measurement unit under
Edit → Convert units.
To avoid unit conflicts, the measurement units shown must be identical within a tightening channel.
The tightening results are calculated and output with the measurement units indicated in the respective
channels.
Below right in the window, a calculation aid is provided to convert the torque into other measurement
units.
The CF350 mass storage can only be diagnosed once the mass storage is inserted in the KE350 or
KE350G IL.
Detailed information on the installation of the CF350 mass storage is contained in the "Project planning"
documentation of the Rexroth Tightening System 350.
The Contents index card illustrates the directory structure in the mass storage similarly to the Explorer in
Windows. The directory for the ID code files (IDCode), as well as the tightening results directories (FO
and CH_xx_x), can be read. Management data for transferring results to the FTP server can be found in
another directory system.
An overview of the mass storage assignment appears in the bottom right of the window.
Unused storage space in the mass storage on the communication unit is monitored, so that the danger
of overflow can be recognized in time. An acknowledgeable error message (error 2023, warning level
mass storage, error class 3) is generated to warn that mass storage is 80 % full. However, an non-ac-
knowledgeable error message (error 2024, mass storage is full, error class 1) is generated if mass stor-
age is 90 % full.
In the Statistics index card (Fig. 5–26), the not yet transferred results files are displayed.
The overview has the same structure as the directory in the mass storage:
• Column 1 shows whether the result is for a tightening application (FO) or an indicated tightening
channel (CH_xx_x).
• Column 2 shows with which application or with which tightening program the result was achieved.
• In column 3, the number of results files not yet transferred for the application/the tightening program
from column 1 and 2 is indicated.
Various mass storage functions are available in the Maintenance index card (Fig. 5–27).
By clicking the Check button, you open a program checking the memory module and similar to the MS-
DOS Chkdsk program. The results are shown in the Status field.
Detailed information is contained in the "Project planning" documentation of the Rexroth Tightening Sys-
tem 350.
As an example, the CS/KE I/O interface diagnosis option is described in the following, based on the
respective control signals of the CS/KE. The diagnosis option is similarly available with the SE I/O inter-
face for SEs with the respective control signals.
With System test → KE I/O interface ..., a window is opened that displays the input and output signals
of the KE (Fig. 5–28). This function is used to monitor the signal exchange between the KE and a partner
controller, e.g. a PLC. The interface assignment, the logical as well as physical assignment, and the value
of the input and output signals of the KE are indicated.
The detailed description of the control signals as well as sequence examples and timing diagrams are
contained in the "Project planning" documentation of the Rexroth Tightening System 350.
Example You wish to check whether the control signals specified in the PLC assignment tables and sent to the
tightening system actually "arrive" in the tightening system. For this, check the Update checkbox
shown in Fig. 5–28. To test the output signals of the tightening cell, activate the input signals via the
PLC or the sequence test1) (e.g. start of a tightening program). If this functions correctly, the respective
values switch from 0 to 1.

Via the SE (or KE) Arcnet bus, control and data signals of the SE (or KE) are sent and received.
Diagnosis data on the status, participant, network coupler, and test function of the SE (or KE) control Arc-
net (SARC) and data Arcnet (DARC) are displayed. Using the diagnosis counter, errors in the SE (or KE)
Arcnet bus can be displayed. Delete diagnosis counter sets the counter values to 0.
In the Arcnet participant index card, all participants on the SE (or KE) Arcnet bus are displayed.
The CAN bus is used for communication between control unit, servo amplifier, and measurement
transducer.
Diagnosis data on status and participants in the CAN bus are displayed. Delete diagnosis counter sets
the counter values to 0. By selecting Participant, the participants in the CAN bus are determined and
information on their registration is given to the controller.

ing System 350.
In this window, the current data traffic via field bus can be viewed. The display can be switched between
Clear text and Hexadecimal. By default, the diagnosis window opens with the clear text display of the
Send range. On the Receipt range index card, the ID code data receipt is displayed in clear text or hexa-
decimal.
In this window, the current status of the field bus is displayed. This includes the display of the component
type, IP address, subnet mask, gateway, host name, serial number, firmware version, status, error code,
exception code, and received data in the Value column and hexadecimal in the Alternative display
column.
Press the F5 button on the keyboard to update the display.
For internal purposes, the KE (FF3) Sequence trace window is called up, which supplies the trace code
and description.
Contactors are installed in every servo amplifier LT35x, LTU350/1 and LTS350D/LTE350D, to ensure
motor release interruption. During operation, these contactors disconnect the EC motor from the servo
amplifier and, thus, reduce the risk for the operating personnel.
If the emergency OFF signal is interrupted during tightening (e.g. by motor-breaker), the above error mes-
sage is generated.
Remedy: Close emergency OFF circuit, so that the 24 V are re-supplied to the PS input
(VM: Terminal XDN2).
If a start signal is set (e.g. FO1 Cw) and 24 V are not present at the PS input, or if the PS signal is inter-
rupted during tightening (e.g. by activating the emergency-off), other class 4 and/or class 3 errors are
generated along with the error code 100, depending on the status of the tightening process. See also
the note in LT35x servo amplifiers (page 129).
Remedy:
• Close emergency OFF circuit, so that the 24 V are re-supplied to the PS input (VM: Terminal XDN2).
• LT reset, to switch off the SE and switch it on again
• Acknowledge class 3 errors via the ResF control signal or via the error lists in the BS350 (see Com-
plete error list (page 161))
The detailed description of the control signals is contained in the "Project planning" documentation of the
Rexroth Tightening System 350.
The SE cannot recognize whether the connection line or the very component is defective (here: LT and
measurement transducer 1).
Remedy:
• Observe permissible ambient temperature (note: Check the temperature of the active components
in a tightening cell under System test → Tightening cell info → Temperature
(see Temperature (page 147))
• Select appropriate power supply
• Change defective connection lines and/or components
• Possible cycle time problem, or the nutrunner has reached its performance limit
The measurement system (measurement transducer) of the nutrunner is overloaded. A possible cause is
e.g. the tightening of an already-tightened bolt with very high speed. Due to the physical properties, the
tightening spindle cannot immediately come to a complete standstill, so that during the decrease in
speed, the torque increases further for a short time.
Remedy: Decrease speed at the final tightening.
For an overload of a redundancy measurement transducer (MSEN 2), the error codes 224/225 are valid
respectively.
The KE no longer communicates with the Arcnet bus or the KE was restarted. After a restart, the KE re-
boots, so that during the boot phase, the controllers (SE) cannot find a KE. Code 1221 frequently follows
error code 712/713.
Remedy: Check the correct position of the KE in the card rack field or the system box. If several card rack
fields (BT) or system boxes (SB) are coupled, check if the Arcnet bus lines are connected correctly. Wait
until the start phase of the KE is completed.
The cause of error code 712/713 can be pinpointed further by determining all participants in the SE/KE
arcnet bus (see under SE/KE Arcnet bus (page 153)).
The programmed torque/speed value is greater than the maximum permissible value, which can be
checked from the channel configuration and/or from the technical data in the product catalog.
Remedy: Do not exceed the maximum permissible torque/speed value when programming!
Error code 1221 follows as a result of code 712/713: If the KE does not communicate to the Arcnet bus,
it is also unable to transfer results.
Remedy: Remedy errors 712/713.
The LT was reset and subsequently, the SE reboots. The KE now reports e.g. code 2401 for channel 0.1.
This means that the KE does not find this channel during the start phase of the SE 0.1.
Remedy: Restart the entire tightening system or restart the KE.
WARNING
Improper execution of service work
In the event that service works are executed improperly, persons can be injured, components dam-
aged, and the safety of the tightening system jeopardized.
Ensure that service works are always implemented by qualified personnel having the required
expert knowledge and tools to implement the necessary works. Rexroth recommends the
Rexroth Service for the aforementioned. Service by qualified personnel is particularly essential
with safety-relevant works and works on safety-relevant systems.
For safety reasons, the LT35x/LTU350/1/LTS350D/LTE350D and VM must only be pulled out at the ear-
liest 3 minutes after the power supply voltage of the card rack field has been switched off.

firmware that is used in the system.
Software setting:
• Perform "Restore” incl. firmware with BS350 (prior to this, a data backup incl. firmware must be im-
plemented using the backup function). During "Restore", the system checks whether the same firm-
ware is available, after that, the tightening parameters are rewritten. Afterwards, the SE/CS is
functional again.
The detailed description of the data storage strategies is contained in the "Project planning" documenta-
tion of the Rexroth Tightening System 350.
5.8.6 KE
If you use the components in an existing system as a replacement or an extension, you must install the
firmware that is used in the system.
Software setting:
• Perform "Restore” incl. firmware with BS350 (prior to this, a data backup incl. firmware must be im-
plemented using the backup function). During "Restore", the system checks whether the same firm-
