Manual EDU 2AE/TOP/MITO Page 2
EDU 2AE/TOP/MITO power supply and control units are an innovative system for controlling the torque of
any MITO electric screwdriver either inline, pistol, with angle head or for automation.
EDU 2AE/TOP/MITO delivers all the advantages of precision torque control electric tools at a fraction of
the price of transdurized tools.
The state-of-the-art electronic control circuit cuts the power supply to the motor calculating the correct
torque in response to 3 parameters; voltage, frequency and current, according to the selected options.
IMPORTANT: EDU 2AE/TOP/MITO is a highly accurate unit but it is critically important to select
the correct options to ensure that proper torque is being applied. Read the menu description carefully
and in case you are unsure please contact Kolver for support information.
Turn the unit on through the on/off switch on the back panel. The unit will carry a general system check and
the words “waiting connection” will appear on the last line of the display. If the connection with the motor
control board is successful the following screen will be displayed:
Press any key on the front panel to enter the main screen (see following picture).
1- Reached torque level in Nm or in.lbs
2- Program number or sequence
3- Screwdriver model
4- Clock
5- Screw count: done screws/total screws
6- Angle value in degrees (only model EDU 2AE/TOP/MITO/TA)
7- Status bar (ready, errors, etc…)

Manual EDU 2AE/TOP/MITO Page 4
1) Program number: you can select the desired program from 1 to 8.
2) Screws number: The EDU2AE/TOP/MITO can act as screw counter. You can set the number of screws
from 1 to 99. To disable the function select OFF by pressing as many times as needed.
If the number of correct screws is equal to the number of set screws, “CYCLE END” will appear on the
status bar and the yellow led will light up. If the “Reset aut” function is disabled (see point 16), “CYCLE
END” will automatically disappear at next screwing cycle or any time you enter the menu. Otherwise, press
OK at the end of each cycle.
ATTENTION: Every time you enter the menu, the number of screws will reset.
3) Model: you can select the screwdriver to be used. Your choice will automatically change the default
settings. It’s important to select the correct model you’re going to use since most parameters regarding the
motor software are specific to every single model.
4) Torque: you can select the desired torque as a percentage of the torque range of the selected
screwdriver.The torque range is always referred to the MAX speed. In case you’re not working at maximum
speed, the torque range will progressively lower in order to avoid motor stalling. If the torque level is
reached correctly, it will be shown on the display and you will hear a beep sound, too.
Such torque level is indicated as “ T: ..% ” on the main screen.
5) Joint: You can select the type of joint you are working on. A soft joint is typically a self tapping screw
on plastic or sheet metal, or a metric (machine) screw on a material subject to strain (for example: gasket, o
ring etc.) A hard joint is typically a fastener joining metal with metal.
If you select the option SOFT the screwdriver will run the complete cycle at the selected speed (see point
6.). When selecting the option HARD the screwdriver will maintain the selected speed for a selected time
after the start (see point 4.) and then the speed will be reduced automatically to apply a pre-torque before
reaching the preset torque. The type of joint is indicated as “J” on the main screen.
IMPORTANT: An incorrect selection of the joint type can result in inaccurate torque output.
6) Brake time: This option can be selected Uonly U in combination with the option JOINT: HARD.
It indicates how long the selected speed (higher speed) will be on before switching to “pre-torque speed”
(lower speed). The “pre-torque speed” will be automatically chosen by the unit depending on the preset
torque. You can set the brake time from 0.3 to 10.0 sec.
To disable the function select OFF by pressing as many times as needed. In this case the screwdriver will
automatically start at pre-torque speed, which cannot be set by the user.
CAUTION: The aim of the BRAKE TIME is only to speed up the approach time in case of long screws.
Reaching the torque at higher speed will result in inaccurate torque output. To avoid inaccurate torque
values we suggest selecting a shorter time, and then increase it step by step until finding the optimum time.
Torque reached during the Brake Time won’t activate the torque signal and the message “Error brake
time” will be displayed on the main screen together with 2 beep sounds. The red led will turn on, too.
![](/html/49/491f/491f4b9766fc2e2d002f68a9065deaa08d7620d88c8e1fc4ab8687158cfd58ec/bg5.png)
Manual EDU 2AE/TOP/MITO Page 5
7) Ramp: You can select the slow start time (acceleration) from 0.2 to 3.0 sec. This option is only available
for the screwing phase, while during the unscrewing phase the ramp time is always 0.2 sec. We suggest
using this option with self tapping screws.
ATTENTION: Reaching the torque while the ramp is still on could give as result a different torque level
from the one that results when the ramp is over. This is due to the motor acceleration.
Reaching the torque while the ramp is still on will activate the “screw OK” signal anyway (this option is
useful if you need to tighten screws that are already tightened, the so called “double hit” ).
On the other hand, if you wish to see an error signal during the preset torque in the ramp phase, you can
change the minimum time by setting value which is equal or superior to the ramp value (see point 9).
8) Speed: You can select any speed value of the screwdriver between nominal (maximum speed given in
the catalogue) and the minimum speed of every single screwdriver (see table with technical data).
9) Min time - Minimum Time: You can set this time from 0.1 sec to 'Max time - 0.1s'. To disable the
function select OFF by pressing as many times as needed. (Min time = 0).
Torque reached below the minimum time won’t activate the torque signal and will result in an error
signal. “Below minimum time” will be displayed on the status bar and the red led will light up. You will
hear two beep sounds, too.
10) Max time - Maximum time: You can select the maximum time of tightening. You can set from 'Min
time + 0,1s' to 20.0 sec.
ATTENTION: If torque isn’t reached by the maximum time, the screwdriver will stop. “Over maximum
time” will be displayed on the status bar and the red led will light up. You will hear two beep sounds, too.
11) Auto rev. – Auto reverse: This option will automatically start a reverse cycle after a torque reached
signal. You can set time from 0.1 to 20.0 sec.
To disable the function select OFF by pressing as many times as needed.
ATTENTION: During the reverse cycle, it is necessary to keep the lever or the start signal pressed as long
as it won’t stop. “Correct screw” will be displayed on the status bar and a green led will light up. You will
hear one beep sound, too. In case the lever is released before the end of the reverse cycle, “unfinished
screw” will be displayed and a red led will light up. You will hear two beep sounds, too.
12) Rev spd - Reverse speed: You can select any reverse speed value of the screwdriver between the
maximum and the minimum specific speed of every single screwdriver (see table with technical data).
13) Rev torque – Unscrewing torque: You can select the desired torque as a percentage of the torque
range of the selected screwdriver (see point 3). If the torque is set on MAX, the unscrewing torque is about
20% higher than the possible maximum torque, so that it is always possible to unscrew the tightened screw
(we suggest leaving this function on in normal use). If the setting is from MIN to 99% the unscrewing
torque with the same percentage will be equal to the settings of the screwing phase.
![](/html/49/491f/491f4b9766fc2e2d002f68a9065deaa08d7620d88c8e1fc4ab8687158cfd58ec/bg6.png)
Manual EDU 2AE/TOP/MITO Page 6
ATTENTION: If you’re using open-end wrenches, the unscrewing torque has to be set to MIN value in
order to bring the wrench back to the correct position.
14) PV torque: Period of time in which the screwdriver works at maximum torque before switching to
the torque that has been set by the user. You can set time from 0.1 to 10.0 sec. To disable the function select
OFF by pressing as many times as needed.
This function overlaps other time settings (brake time, ramp time, minimum time, maximum time) from the
motor start on.
ATTENTION: This function is useful for applications where the prevailing torque is higher than the final
torque (for example trilobal screws or locknuts).
Please use this function with utmost attention because an incorrect use can damage both the assembly
and the screwdriver.
Torques reached during the max torque time won’t activate the torque signal. “Error pvt time” will be
displayed and the red led will light up. You will hear two beep sounds, too.
15) Rotation: You can choose between right tightening (standard screws) or left tightening (left threaded
screws). All the other functions will adapt to the selected direction of rotation.
16) Reset aut : If ON, the control unit resets automatically after a cycle end.
If OFF, press OK every cycle end.
17) Press ESC: If ON, the control unit will after an error signal, then press ESCto reset.
If OFF, the control unit resets automatically.
18) Error lever: If ON, an error signal will occur if the lever has released before reaching the torque.
If OFF, this function doesn’t work.
19) Defix allow: if ON, the reverse switch on the screwdriver will work normally. If OFF, if you want the
screwdriver will work only forward.
20) Calibration: If ON, you will see the torque value (Nm or in.lbs) on the main screen.
If OFF, the torque value won’t be displayed.
(To modify the calibration parameters see paragraph Torque calibration).
![](/html/49/491f/491f4b9766fc2e2d002f68a9065deaa08d7620d88c8e1fc4ab8687158cfd58ec/bg7.png)
Manual EDU 2AE/TOP/MITO Page 7
21) Compens – Compensation: This function allows an increase or decrease of the displayed torque
after calibration. The available range is from 0 to ±9.99 Nm. For example: after calibration (see Torque
calibration) you make a screwing cycle on your assembly and compare the value you see on the main screen
display with the value you see on a torque tester (for example a mini-K or a K model). Let's say you notice
that the torque displayed in the unit EDU 2AE/TOP/MITO is +0.2 Nm higher than the value indicated on
the tester (which is the right one). In this case you change this value by setting -0.2 Nm so that the value on
the screen will be the same as the value on the tester. If it’s lower than 0.3 Nm, you need to set +0.3 Nm and
so on.
22) Unit: You can choose between the following units of measurements: Nm and in.lbs.
23) Torq min – Minimum torque: The minimum torque and maximum torque options allow the user to
set the acceptable torque range for each single application. When the reached torque is inside this range,
“tightening OK” will be displayed on the status bar and the green led will light up. If the reached torque is
outside this range the messages “error minimum torque” or “error maximum torque” will be displayed. You
can set the torque range from 0 to 40 Nm in steps of 0.01 Nm.
The minimum torque option allows to set the lowest value of the torque range and it’s on if calibration is
ON. If calibration is OFF, the minimum torque value automatically sets on 0 Nm.
24) Torq max – Maximum Torque: The minimum torque and maximum torque options allow the user
to set the acceptable torque range for the single application. When the reached torque is inside this range,
“right screwing” will be displayed on the status bar and the green led will light up. The messages “below
minimum torque” or “over maximum torque” will be displayed if the reached torque is outside this range.
You can set the torque range from 0 to 40 Nm at intervals of 0.01 Nm.
The maximum torque option allows to set the highest value of the torque range and it’s on if the calibration
is ON. If the calibration is OFF the maximum torque value automatically sets on 40 Nm.
25) Ins. barcode: to scan a barcode and recall the desired program. To be used in combination with option
4. of the Sequence Menu.
THE FOLLOWING MENU IS AVAILABLE ON TA VERSION ONLY
26) Func T&A–T&A function mode: You can activate the Torque & Angle function. Set OFF if you
don’t need this function. If you set ON you can choose among six working conditions (see T&A specific
instructions).
27) Starting Tor – Starting torque: If T&A option is set on Tor mode (See T&A paragraph), you can
set the torque threshold the angle starts to be read from. If T&A is set on angle mode (see T&A paragraph),
you can set the torque threshold the angle starts to be carried out from.

Manual EDU 2AE/TOP/MITO Page 8
28) Ang. min – Minimum angle: Minimum angle threshold. You can set it if T&A is set on Tor, T/in or
T/lv (see T&A specific instructions). The minimum angle the operator can set is 5°.
29)Ang. max - Maximum angle: Maximum angle threshold. You can set it if T&A is set on Tor, T/in or
T/lv (see T&A specific instructions). The maximum angle the operator can set is 9720°.
If T&A is set on Ang., A/in or A/lv mode, maximum angle corresponds to the angle that has to be carried
out.
SEQUENCE MENU:
1) Seq set: you can set a sequence up to max. 8 programs. To set the next program in the sequence, press
OK.
2) Sequence: It allows to enable or disable the sequence. ON = enabled; OFF = disabled.
3) Ext box: It allows to enable or disable the external switch box. ON = switch box enabled; OFF = switch
box disabled.
4) Barc. mode: – Barcode mode: It allows to choose the barcode mode.
