The CS7000 Controller manufactured by CP techmotive is a component of one of the most powerful
DC electric nutrunner fastening control systems available. The system uses 100% digital technology
to ensure accurate and reliable fastening and data acquisition. Microprocessors in both the fastening
tool and the controller s tool control module (TCM) enable the system to perform to levels of
accuracy while providing easy set-up and operation previously unattainable.
With Intelligent tool technology you no longer need to enter tool identification, calibration, angle
counts, speed and other information. You simply plug in the tool, power on the system, program the
desired tightening specifications and begin production.
A complete nutrunner fastening control system is made up of the CS7000 Controller, a cable and a
CP techmotive 177 or 277 Series nutrunner. The powerful CP techmotive Visual Supervisor software
program is used for system setup, fastening, data collection, and diagnostics.
Who Should Use This Manual
This manual is written for the engineers, technicians and users who will set-up and/or operate the
CS7000 Controller with any of the Intelligent (177 and 277 Series) nutrunners.
How to Use This Manual
This manual provides installation, maintenance and technical information about the CS7000
Controllers.
This Preface provides conventions and abbreviations used throughout this manual.
If you have never used a CS7000 Controller, read this manual entirely. The first two chapters will
help you become familiar with safety requirements, the location of components, software and
features.
If you are already familiar with the CS7000 Controller, look over Chapter 3. Installing the CS7000Controller and Chapter 4. Technical Information, which describe the power requirements, details of
the I/O wiring and connectors, replacement parts and fuses.
The following conventions are used throughout this manual for the safety of personnel, equipment,
software, and data. The conventions include warnings, cautions and notes, as follows:

Information that adds to your knowledge of the equipment
and/or software. The information is indented and italicized.
Working with fastening tools can be dangerous if safe and proper procedures are not followed. As
with all machinery, certain hazards can be involved with the operation of the product. Using these
tools with respect and caution will considerably lessen the possibility of personal injury. If, however,
safety precautions are overlooked or ignored personal injury to the operator can result.
Always use common sense and exercise caution when using these tools. They can produce high
torque that, unless properly compensated for, could cause personal injury. Remember, your personal
safety is your responsibility.
If you are an operator or CP techmotive-qualified service technician, you should become familiar with
the contents of this manual before operating, servicing, or maintaining any part of the CS7000
Controller. Familiarization with all components of the system can minimize the possibility that an
accident or injury might occur.
CP techmotive assumes no responsibility for personal injury or damage to equipment resulting from
misuse of these tools. After reviewing this manual you should also review all safety procedures
provided by your company and the equipment installer.

Failure to follow these steps can result in serious personal
injury.
General Machine Safety
• FOR YOUR OWN SAFETY READ THE INSTRUCTION MANUAL THOROUGHLY
PRIOR TO OPERATING THE TOOL.
• DO NOT WORK IN A DANGEROUS ENVIRONMENT. Do not use power tools in a
damp or wet location or explosive atmosphere, or expose them to rain, oils, or corrosive
fluids.
• KNOW THE LOCATION OF POWER DISCONNECTS AND EMERGENCY STOP
BUTTONS PRIOR TO OPERATING THIS EQUIPMENT.
• KEEP ALL ELECTRICAL PANELS CLOSED DURING OPERATION. High voltage
present inside enclosure panels can result in personal injury. Do NOT bypass or defeat
electrical safety devices. Turn the power actuator to the OFF position prior to any
servicing or maintenance of the controller.
• Observe all government and/or company power lockout standards.
• NEVER OPERATE SOLENOID VALVES, LIMIT SWITCHES OR RELAYS
MANUALLY as this practice can create dangerous, unexpected machine movements.
• SECURE THE TOOL. Tools that develop torque can produce hazardous torque
reactions. Always be sure that the tool is properly fixtured to absorb reaction as a
fastener is tightened. Never operate a tool capable of high torque without proper
fixturing.
• SECURE WORK. Avoid situations where the part being fastened breaks loose and can
cause damage.
• NEVER TOUCH OR ATTEMPT TO STOP MOVING MACHINERY OR PARTS
WITH YOUR HANDS, OTHER PARTS OF YOUR BODY, OR MAKESHIFT
DEVICES.
• DO NOT OPERATE THE TOOL WHILE UNDER THE INFLUENCE OF ALCOHOL,
DRUGS OR MEDICATION THAT CAN IMPAIR YOUR JUDGMENT.
• REPORT ALL UNSAFE WORKING CONDITIONS OR PRACTICES TO YOUR
SUPERVISOR AND / OR SAFETY DEPARTMENT FOR CORRECTION.
• WEAR APPROVED SAFETY GLASSES AT ALL TIMES.
• DO NOT WEAR JEWELRY, especially bracelets and rings, while operating the
fastening tools. Keep hands and fingers away from all rotating parts and avoid situations
where clothing can become tangled in the tool. Secure loose fitting clothing, neckties,
and long hair. Wear medical alert identification cautiously.
• DO NOT OVERREACH. Keep proper footing and balance at all times.
• KEEP YOUR WORK AREA CLEAN. Do not work on or near slippery floors or
surfaces. Avoid situations where the tool reacts against unexpected obstacles. Do not
operate electrical equipment while standing on a wet floor.
• MAINTAIN TOOLS IN TOP CONDITION. Keep tools properly lubricated and clean.
If any wires become frayed or exposed, replace them immediately. Prevent dirt, grease
or contaminants from getting into the tool.
• REDUCE THE RISK OF UNINTENTIONAL STARTING. Be careful how the tool is
left unattended. Avoid resting it on its throttle lever to prevent false starts.
• CONTROL THE DIRECTION OF ROTATION. The reaction torque changes direction
when going from forward to reverse. Always be aware in which direction the tool will
rotate prior to using it. If the tool is not fixtured this will allow you to brace for the
proper direction of torque reaction.
• CHECK DAMAGED PARTS. Before further use of a tool, any part of the tool that is
damaged should be carefully checked to ensure that it will operate properly and perform
its intended function. Check for alignment of moving parts, breakage of parts, mounting,
and any other conditions that may affect its operation. Never operate a tool that has
damaged or exposed wires. Never operate a tool that has any part of the powertrain,
other than the output spindle, exposed.
