5 Notes
• Parameterization via USB is not permitted during operation. When reading out via USB,
a reset of the TC24IO is carried out.
• If the battery of the tool is disconnected after connecting, the connection status will
not be updated. Output „OUT4“ remains high. The connection status is updated by the
TC24IO when a telegram is sent again.
• Error status „OUT3“ is set when telegrams to the tool are not answered with „OK“, e. g.
at the hardware initialization (PowerRiv). Here, the TC24IO Enable telegram is answered
with „HW“.

6 Setup TC24IO
6.1 Connecng to the HST-Tool-Manager
• Connect mini USB to Laptop/PC
• Start HST Tool Manager
• To start the readout, press the „Read“ button
• Open the settings menu by pressing the „Settings“ button

- 17 -
6.2 Network sengs
• Define SSID and network key
• Set IP address of the TCs with port number
• Set up subnet mask
• A standard gateway is not required → everything is „0“
• Save changes in the TC by pressing the „Apply changes“ button

- 18 -
6.2.1 Network sengs for integraon into an exisng Wi-Fi network
It is possible to integrate the TC24IO into an existing Wi-Fi in order to communicate with
the tool. This means that an existing infrastructure can be used.
To use this option, proceed as follows:
• Uncheck „Soft-AP“
• Enter the SSID of the WLAN network* to be used
• Enter the network key of the Wi-Fi network * to be used
• Select the appropriate channel
• Specify the IP address of the TC with the port number
The IP range used by the TC24IO and the tool can also be different from the IP
range of the Wi-Fi network; it must then be ensured that a correct subnet mask
is entered.
• Set the standard gateway (IP address of the access point)
• Save changes in TC with the „Apply changes“ button
* Please note that the TC24IO only supports 2.4GHz Wi-Fi. Integration into a 5GHz Wi-Fi is not possible.

6.3 Process controls
• Select the Process controls tab
• Select tool type
• Program no.: Select program with which the tool should work. To start a process, „101“
must be selected for the PowerRiv and NutBee series riveting tools. For screwdriving tools
of the TorqBee series, the number of the desired sequence + 1000 must be selected e.g. if
process number 3 is to be released, „1003“ must be entered.
• Count: Number of screw connection/rivets per release
• ID: Entry mandatory (e.g. „1“), entry as customized text, max. 64 characters, no special
characters like semicolon or space.
• TorqBee release mode:
0 = never, 1 = only after NOK, 2 = after OK/NOK, 4 = released up to 1st OK
NutBee release mode: 0 = never
• Failed attempts max.: customized entry of the max. permitted repeat attempts
• NOK behavior:
0 = NOK results in immediate stop, 1 = 1 x NOK results in NOK, 2 = screw NOK → NOK screws
does not result in total NOK within the attempts, 3=never NOK
