See
Chapter 3, Using the Display Screens
for details on using these features.

The schedule lock feature restricts welding to the one selected weld schedule and prevents changing
that schedule.

The program lock feature allows the use of all 63 schedules, but does
not
allow editing schedule
values.

The digital display allows operators to set welding energy accurately and quickly.

The Power Supply is compatible with both manually and air actuated weld heads with 1-level or 2-
level foot switches.

The Power Supply is compatible with force fired and non-force fired weld heads.
SQUEEZE
and
HOLD
delay times are adjustable from
0
to
2.999
seconds.

A built-in weld counter allows controlling events based on number of welds completed. The counter
limit provides an output signal when the count equals or exceeds the user-programmable value.

The firing circuit is compatible with single pole, double pole or optical firing switches.

The energy monitor and lockout prevent poor welds caused by premature firing of the power supply
before the capacitor bank has been properly charged or discharged.

The line failure turndown safety feature discharges the capacitor bank when input power is
interrupted.

The Power Supply is protected from radio frequency and electromagnetic interference, resulting in
reliable operation even in high electrical noise environments. Input switch debounce circuitry
eliminates false triggering.
