Torque Window

How To Configure The Torque Window

  less than a minute  

The torque window detector monitors the actual torque of an axis, typically measured in Nm. The main purposes is to trigger a warnings or an emergency stops if the actual torque exceeds the defined limits.

Configure the torque window via the GUI

You can configure the torque window per axis through the GUI under the Alarms Tab.

  1. You can enable or disable the torque window per axis.

  2. Define the Low and High threshold value. If the input exceeds the defined threshold value a Warning is triggered.

  3. Define the Too Low and Too High threshold value . If the input exceeds the defined threshold value a Emergency Stop is triggered.

  4. Save Configuration

    • Press Save Settings to store all your changes.

Configure the torque window via the DESK-Tool

To configure torque window for an axis (e.g., axis 1) using the desk-tool:
