The left column shows the currently defined Alpha Controller settings and menu choices. The Options Screen column shows options for each selection. Screen navigation options appear above each screen. Default Screens Options Screen 2.5.1 Setup Menu: 1. Jobs The Setup menu programs the controller to operate a spindle or tool. Settings are saved per Job with optional Task and Step assignments. Most controllers will operate with a single Job, Task and Step. Tasks control tool operation for tightening a fastener which can have one or more steps. Steps are defined by available strategies such as TC/AM (Torque Control, Angle Monitoring). The Wizard can be used to setup a Task for simple rundowns. Creating a name for Jobs, Tasks and Steps is optional but helpful when multiples Jobs and Tasks exist. 10 Programming
