Beginning a Crimp
Loading Dies
Regardless of how the crimp speciication/crimper was set up, the irst step in crimping is to load the correct die into the crimper.
As part of the crimper coniguration, the dies available to this crimper have been conigured (see Managing Preset Dies
on page 37). This pre-determined list of dies allows the crimper to determine which die to recommend for each crimp.
Crimp speciications and favorited crimp specs all include a recommended die. If that die is conigured for this crimper, the
user is prompted to install the recommended die.
Notes:
• Continental dies use color coding to help the user select the correct die set.
• The crimper will always prompt the user to “Install/Conirm” that the die is loaded. Therefore, even if the recommended
die is already loaded, the user will always be prompted to conirm that the correct die is installed in the crimper.
• While on the Change Die screen, the pump is on and the Open/Close button is enabled. The user can move the crimp
head as required to install the dies.
• In rare situations, the user may need to override the recommended die. This can be done by pressing the Die Options button.
This will bring up the list of available dies (described below).
• Caution:In Change Die mode, the crimper head will close to the die diameter.
Beginning a Crimp

Selecting a Die
If a non-recommended die or no die is set, the controller will prompt the user with a list of conigured dies. The CrimpIQ™
controller will recommend a die that can crimp the required crimp diameter.
Once a die is selected, the machine will prompt the user to conirm/install the die in Change Die mode (described above).
25PC440i Crimper – Operator Manual
Notes:
• Dies that are grayed out are excluded because they are not capable of reaching the crimp diameter.
• This list is scrollable. You can slide the list up and down but, in general, the list will be centered on the dies that can be used
for this crimp.
• This list is limited to the dies conigured when the initial machine setup was completed
(either in the factory or during the initial machine setup).
• If you have a die appropriate for this crimp but it is not in the list of dies, you can manually
enter this die by choosing the Enter Manual Die option on the bottom right.
• If the selected die cannot crimp to the required crimp diameter, the crimper will display a warning.

Measuring a Crimp
The crimper will always prompt the user to measure the irst crimp. The crimper uses this measurement to adjust the
crimper to correctly crimp the next crimps.
When prompted, enter the measured crimp diameter. Measurements can be entered in inches or mm (the cursor will be
placed in either ield based on the preferred units of measure setup in the machine coniguration).
Notes:
• If the crimp diameter measurement matches the current crimp target, the user can press the Crimped to Target button to
automatically enter the measurement with a single button press.
• If a value is incorrectly entered, simply press the clear button.
• Once the measurement has been entered, the Save button is enabled and saves the measured crimp diameter for quality
assurance reporting.
• A keyboard will pop up on the bottom of the screen to allow users to enter crimp diameter data.
• If calipers are connected to the crimper, measurements can automatically be transferred into the measurement ield.
• The preferred units of measure are set up per user and can be conigured in the machine settings.

Managing Users
The crimper comes conigured with three user accounts but Administrators have the option to setup additional users.
Additional users can be useful to track what each user/admin is doing on the machine. Information on the default users is
available in the Key User Information.
This setup screen allow Administrators to create new users and edit existing users.
Edit User: User name, 4 digit passcode and user type can be changed with this menu.
This is where an Administrator would reset the pin for a user who has forgotten their pin.
Create New User: Enter the user name, 4 digit passcode and user type to create a new user.
The CrimpIQ™ controller has been conigured with multiple user types. Each type has dierent capabilities within the crimper.
The goal is to provide users with all the privileges they require to do their tasks but no more.
Machine Admin: This is the highest privilege user type that can be conigured. This user type can change all machine
settings, access all support information and perform all crimp operations.
Machine Tech: This type has privileges to maintain the machine but cannot perform crimping tasks.
Supervisor: This type has privileges to monitor machine operations but cannot perform maintenance tasks.
Machine User: This type has privileges to use the machine, perform all crimping related tasks and has limited ability
to change machine coniguration.
Self-Calibration Mode
Self-calibration is a built-in test that veriies the accuracy of the crimper is within tolerance of its initial factory setup. If the test
fails (out of tolerance), a warning message is displayed showing the dierence from its initial set point.
To run the test, follow the instructions on the screen. At a high level, the test lows as follows:
• Load dies into the crimper (any standard hydraulic dies work). Make sure the crimp head is at least 1/3 open.
• Begin the self-calibration mode. This will prompt the user the press the Close button. The test then runs
automatically and returns a success/failure result.

Additional Connection Options
In some cases, network administrators may restrict which machines can access the company network.
There are 2 alternative connection options to complete the Crimp setup process:
1. Temporarily connect to a guest network:
The controller supports connecting to guest networks to complete the installation. The CrimpIQ™ controller needs an
Internet connection but does not require access to any internal company resources. A guest network can be used to
complete the setup and update processes for the controller. Simply enter the guest network credentials and the setup
can continue.
a. Enter the guest Wi-Fi credentials (via the Android Wi-Fi setup screens) and verify the connection is active (as described
above). The setup process only takes a few minutes after which the Wi-Fi connection is not needed.
b. Some facilities Wi-Fi connection use a web page to request user Wi-Fi login credentials. The controller supports this.
After selecting the appropriate network, return to the CrimpIQ™ controller setup screen. Use the verify connection
option to bring up the ContiFluidSolutions home page. The local network will then prompt for the required credentials.
2. Connect with a hot spot from a mobile device:
In some cases, network administration policies will not allow the CrimpIQ™ controller to access any network.
In that case, users must setup a Wi-Fi hotspot and use this connection to complete the setup process.
Internet Access Requirements
The CrimpIQ™ controller was designed to work with or without a dedicated Internet connection. If a dedicated connection
is not available, all of the essential crimping functions will work. The Internet associated features (ContiFluidSolutions home
page, support tickets, reporting) will not work because they require an active Internet connection to operation. Periodically, users
will be prompted to connect to the Internet to allow the CrimpIQ™ controller to sync information with CrimpCloud®. This sync
ensures the crimper has the latest software, crimp speciications and updates. It also ensures the machine coniguration
and operational history is backed up to CrimpCloud®. Operational information is used to generate reports and other
features available to users from CrimpCloud®.
