agru SP 63-mobile User’s Manual
After preparing the machine for welding and connecting the power supply
cord to the mains power supply, the machine is turned on using the On/
Off switch. The welcome screen, as reproduced in Display 1, appears
on the touchscreen panel. It disappears after a couple of seconds or
when you press a key, and in the next screen you can select the display
language that the machine will use, using the cursor keys. The selected
language has to be confirmed by pressing the START/SET key.
After the language was selected, the machine takes the user to the
screen for setting the system clock and date, if this still needs to be
done or the auto-test determines they cannot be correct, and then to the
welder code input screen. Without a valid welder identification code, the
machine does not move on to the preparation of welding and the welding
process, since working with the machine without a welder identification
is prohibited.
Read the welder from a transponder card by RFID. If no card with the
welder identification code is available, it can also be typed on the keypad
and saved to memory by touching the START/SET key.
Info
All inputs for which a transponder card is available can be
entered by holding the card in front of the RFID reader.
Info
Depending on the software version installed in your machine,
some screens may differ slightly on your machine from the
reproductions in this manual.
When the welder code was entered, the movement position of the mov-
able carriage has to zeroed (see below). Then the machine displays the
so-called default screen (see Display 3). In this display, it is possible
to start the welding process and to customize the configuration of the
machine.
Zeroing the Position of the Movable Carriage
Wichtig
Without proper zeroing of the reference position of the movable
carriage, proper welding is impossible. Therefore, zeroing will
be skipped only when the machine remains at the same spot for
the next welding and no emergency stop was triggered. Zeroing
the carriage position is required and cannot be skipped after
the machine was switched on or the emergency stop switch
was pressed.
To zero the carriage position, the facing tool has to be removed from
in-between the carriages if it still is positioned between them, and the
START/SET key must then be pressed for confirmation (see Display 4).
If it hasn’t, press the STOP/RESET key. If the spacer pins of the facing
tool are placed in the recesses of the carriages, the movable carriage
can be moved apart by pressing the
cursor key.
The same holds for the heating element. If it is still set on the carrier
between the two carriages of the machine, the user is requested to
remove it. Only after the removal was confirmed by START/SET, the
process continues.
The same query appears again for the pipes/components that might still
be in the clamps from the last welding operation. They, too, have to be
taken out of them, which has to be confirmed by START/SET.
When the welder confirms that there are no pipes in the clamps, the
machine asks that the movable carriage be closed in on the fixed one by
holding down the
cursor keys, just as for facing, heating or joining, until
the message “Searching reference point” appear on the screen. When
