3. Loosely fasten the sensor bracket to the left side
gib, making sure that the fixture is in the magnet
cavity of the ram.
4. Using the long screw, fasten the fixture to the ram
cavity. Tighten screw. This positions the sensor
bracket relative to the magnet in the ram.
5. Tighten the sensor bracket mounting screws.
Remove the fixture and fasten it to the gib as shown in Figure 3. Fasten the sensor magnet with the
chamfered edges down in the ram cavity. (You may hand cycle the ram up to install the sensor magnet.)
6. Install the transducer assembly to the sensor
bracket with the position sensor oriented on the
lower half and toward the ram.
7. When the system is completely assembled, the
sensor will have to be adjusted. Refer to Section 5, ADJUSTMENT.
3.4. Cable Connections
1. The supplied cable has a 15-position
subminiature "D" connector which mates to the
connector labeled on back of the Crimp
Quality Monitor.
2. The cable splits into two sections. The four-
position connector goes to the base plate and the
three-position connector goes to the position
sensor.
3. The four-position connector can attach to the
base plate in either of two orientations (either 0 or
180 degrees); either orientation will work correctly.
4. The three-position connector has a mark to
indicate position 1 on the connector. Align this mark
with the corresponding mark on the position
sensor's connector and attach the connectors.
5. The sensor cover provides a strain relief for the
cable that connects to the position sensor. A cable
clamp mounts to the cover with a socket head
screw and hex nut. Slide the cable clamp onto the
cable and loosely mount the clamp to the cover.
Position the cover in its proper location and adjust
the cable to provide ample strain relief. Tighten the
cable clamp hardware.
6. Attach the cover to the sensor bracket with the
two screws provided.

5. ADJUSTMENT
To avoid personal injury, be very careful of moving
mechanisms when making adjustments while the
terminating machine is "on."
Set precision adjust to tightest setting (-9).
This adjustment should be made only by qualified
personnel under the guidance of Tyco Electronics.
1. Jog the machine ram down until the ram is in the
bottom-dead-center position.
2. Check the Crimp Quality Monitor SENSORS
DIAGNOSTICS screen for a height reading of 900 to 1100. If the monitor screen does not indicate 900 to 1100, adjust as follows:
a.Remove the two screws securing the sensor
cover.
b.Loosen the two screws securing the sensor.
c.Watching the monitor diagnostics sensor
screen, move the sensor "up" to decrease the
position sensor reading; "down" to increase the
position sensor reading until the position
sensor reading is between 900 and 1100.
d.Tighten the screws securing the sensor.
e.Replace the cover and secure it with the two
screws removed earlier.
3. Return the machine ram to the top-dead-center
position.
4. Re-adjust precision adjust to .00 mm [.000 in.]. 6. INSPECTION/MAINTENANCE
6.1. Daily Inspection/Maintenance
It is recommended that each operator be made aware of and responsible for the following daily maintenance steps.
1. Check the position sensor reading (Crimp Quality
Monitor SENSORS DIAGNOSTICS menu) to be
sure that the position sensor reading is in the proper range. Adjust, if necessary according to Section 5, ADJUSTMENT.
2. Inspect all wiring for any damaged cables or
unmated connectors.
3. Clean all crimping areas in accordance with the
instructions for the Heavy Duty Miniature Applicator.
4. Ensure that the applicator that is mounted in the
terminating machine is held securely by both the base plate and the applicator ram lock.
6.2. Periodic Inspection/Maintenance
Regular inspection should be performed by Quality Control personnel. A record of scheduled inspections should remain with the CQM system and/or be supplied to supervisory personnel responsible for the system. Though recommendations call for at least one inspection a month, the inspection frequency should be based on the amount of use, working conditions, operator training and skill, and established company standards. These inspections should be performed in the following sequence.
1. Make sure all screws, cables, and connectors are
in place.
2. Check all parts for wear. Remove and replace
worn components.
3. Inspect the crimp area for flattened, cracked,
worn, or broken areas. If damage is evident, the
tooling must be repaired before returning it to
service. Refer to the terminating machine and
applicator instructions.
7. REPAIR/REPLACEMENT
Do not remove or perform any maintenance on
components not explicitly called for in this
instruction sheet. Damage could be done to the
entire Crimp Quality Monitor system.
7.1. Troubleshooting/Repair of Sensor Wiring
The Crimp Quality Monitor requires continuous electrical flow through the force and position sensors on the terminating machine in order to acquire the necessary data points to analyze a crimp. If the electrical path is broken by a damaged connector or wire, the monitor will not be able to analyze the data in order to calibrate or report the crimp status.
The following error messages could indicate a
broken electrical path:
? "NOT ENOUGH VALID POINTS" (Calibrate
Mode)
? "INVALID CRIMP" (Run Mode)
To check the sensor wiring, proceed as follows:
1. Select DIAGNOSTICS from the Crimp Quality
Monitor main menu.
2. Select 2-SENSORS from the DIAGNOSTICS
menu.
3. Using the terminating machine's Jog Mode, crimp
a terminal without wire, and observe the FORCE
and POSITION readings.

Terminals may get stuck in the tooling when
crimped without wire. A stuck terminal must be
cleared from the tooling to avoid tooling breakage
during successive crimps.
a.The force reading should start at a value
between 0 and 300, gradually increase to a
value less than 4095 at bottom-dead-center
and then gradually return to approximately the
same starting value.
b.The position reading should start at a value
between 2000 and 3000, increase to a
maximum less than 4095, then decrease to
minimum between 900 and 1800 at bottom-
dead-center.
The position sensor value should not go below 900
during this cycle. If necessary refer to Section 5,
ADJUSTMENT for position sensor adjustment.
4. If the sensor values indicate a problem, test the
cable between the Crimp Quality Monitor and the sensors (Sensor Cable PN 122955-1) with an
ohmmeter for continuity, or replace the sensor cable and repeat Steps 1, 2, and 3.
5. If the sensor cable fails the continuity test,
replace it. If the cable passes, but the force sensor readings were incorrect, see Paragraph 7.3, Force Sensor Replacement. If the cable passes, but the position sensor readings were incorrect, see
Paragraph 7.4, Position Sensor Replacement.
7.2. Force Sensor Removal
To avoid personal injury, disconnect all power to the
terminating machine and to the Crimp Quality
Monitor before removing the force sensor.
1. Disconnect the sensor cable at the force sensor.
The connector is a locking-style connector and
must be removed by pulling on the connector
housing. Pulling on the wires will not release the
connector and will cause damage to the wires.
2. Remove the base plate's mounting screws and
then the base plate.
7.3. Force Sensor Replacement
To avoid personal injury, make sure that power to
the terminating machine and Crimp Quality Monitor
is disconnected before replacing the force sensor.
1. Remove all components from base plate
assembly, and install them in the same location on new base plate sensor assembly.
2. Clean mounting surface, then mount new base
plate sensor assembly on terminating machine.
3. Check alignment of the base plate with the
terminating machine's ram.
4. Make alignment corrections, if necessary.
5. Connect the cable to the sensor.
