NOTE: All connections to a PLC are made via the Insight’s terminal blocks, except data collection. Data collection is 

done via the serial Fieldbus and/or Ethernet ports. For data collection, follow the procedures for setup via the serial or 

Ethernet port. To connect a PLC to the terminal blocks, see the procedure above.

Through the terminal blocks, a PLC can send and receive a variety of outputs to and from the Insight controller. It is 

important to always use a shielded cable for all PLC signals to the Insight controller, and the shield should only be 

terminated at the controller end. All inputs and outputs are activated/received in the same way, as discussed above. 

1.   Connect the configuration switch to the Insight controller’s terminal blocks and Connect Config 1 wire to the input 

assigned to Behavior Config 1, and so forth through Config 8. 

NOTE: The Behavior (i.e., the assignment of function) for inputs and outputs is accomplished through the ICS software. 

2.   Attach a spindle to the Insight controller and turn the controller On using power switch on the front panel. 
3.   Go to the Setup menu and the Spindle Setup sub-menu screen. 
4.   If your configuration switch has more than eight positions, select External Binary from the Config Select drop box. If 

your socket tray has eight or fewer positions, select External Discrete from the Config Select drop box. 

How to Test a Configuration Switch 

1.   After you have connected and setup the configuration switch, go to the Diagnostics menu and the Discrete Inputs 

sub-menu screen. 

2.   As you activate each position on the configuration switch you should see the appropriate indicator light up on 

the screen, indicating activity on the configuration lines. (Note: If you selected External Binary in the Config Select 

drop box on the Setup menu’s Spindle Setup screen, then the first four configuration lines will indicate the binary 

encoded number for the configuration selection, with 0000 indicating configuration 1 is selected.)

1.  Locate the active wire colors for light boxes.
2.  Connect the light box to the Insight controller’s terminal blocks on the controller’s left side with the appropriate 

accessory cable. 

3.  Ensure a spindle is attached to the Insight controller and turn it on using the controller’s power switch.
In a standard setup, the colored lamps indicate the following:

 

Red 

 

Torque Hi and/or Angle Hi.

 

Green   

Accept output.

 

Yellow   

Torque Lo and/or Angle Lo.

NOTE:  The Insight supports serial printers for printing E.O.R. (End of Run) data and labels.

1.   Connect your serial printer via a standard 9-pin serial cable to the serial port located on the left side of the Insight 

controller labeled I0I0I.

2.   On the Setup menu’s Serial Setup sub-menu screen, select EOR Data Out from the Protocol drop box.
3.   Check that the settings for Baud Rate, Parity, Bits Per Character, and # of Stop Bits match those settings on the 

serial printer. Change the settings as necessary.

4.   Turn on the printer and make sure it is on line.
5.   Run a tightening and ensure that the tightening result is printed.
To Print Labels:

1.   Connect your serial printer via a standard 9-pin serial cable to the serial port located on the left side of the Insight 

controller labeled I0I0I.

2.   FTP the Status.txt file into lbl folder of the controller. This Status file contains information relative to printer initiali-

zation and application specific settings.  

3.   FTP the Body.txt file into lbl folder of the controller. This Body file will be used solely for defining the contents and 

format of the label/report that will be printed.

4.   Reboot the controller.
5.   Turn on the printer and make sure it is on line.
6.   Run a tightening and ensure that the label is printed.
