Alphanumerical PROGRAM Screen
This screen allows you to set all force, time and
position fields using the numerical keys. Use all
four [
►◄▲▼ ] keys to select the various fields.
The setdown displacement alarms and the weld-to-
displacement feature are not programmed on this
screen; they are programmed in the setdown
PROGRAM screen.
UPST Position PROGRAM Screen
This screen provides an alternative way of
programming the upstop position. The
UPST position is where the head is located
while the Series 300 System is ready (in the
run state).
Upon entering this screen, the head is
positioned at the UPST position. You use
the [
▲▼ ] keys to raise or lower the head, or
program the UPST position directly using the
numerical keys. Since the head responds
immediately to your actions, this screen is particularly helpful for fine tuning the UPST position.
SRCH Position PROGRAM Screen
The search (SRCH) position is the location
where the head stops on its way down to allow
the user to accurately align the materials to be
welded. Typically, this position is set up so the
electrodes are just above the weld material.
Upon entering this screen, the head is
positioned in the SRCH position. You use the
[
▲▼ ] keys to lower the head, or program the
SRCH position directly using the numerical keys. Since the head responds immediately to your actions,
this screen is particularly helpful for fine-tuning the SRCH position.
