• Arc interruption
The welding process is immediately interrupted if the signal “Arc on“ is
interrupted during the welding process for longer than the defined error
time and if the channels are set to “Abortion group 1 or 2“. The master
controller decides on an abortion if the setting is on “Message group 1 or
2”. You have the option to enter a start delay time in order to avoid that an
error message is generated immediately after the ignition process. An error
message cannot be generated during the time of the start command and
the expiration of the start delay time.
• Wire storage
The signal “Wire storage” is a switch (24 V) which is installed at the wire
drive unit or the wire drum. The electrical conductivity of the welding wire
signals whether wire is available or not. You have the option to enter a
start delay time and an error time in order to avoid that an error message
is generated immediately after the ignition process. The welding process is
immediately interrupted if the channels are set to “Abortion group1 or 2”.
The master controller decides on an abortion if the setting is on “Message
group 1 or 2”.
*Prerequisite to use the reserve channels
The prerequisite to use the reserve channels is an optional VBC module
(OMI module, Profi-Bus, Profi-Net, Device-Net).
A bus system (Profi-Bus, Profi-Net, Device-Net) is necessary to transmit
digital data to the reserve channels of the SD module. The value range is
divided into LowByte and HighByte and is preset from 0 to 1000 (decimal).
In the configuration file of the corresponding bus system, the reserve chan-
nels are determined as follows:
Reserve channel 1 LowByte Signal type 3, group 7, signal number 9
Reserve channel 1 High-
Byte
Signal type 3, group 7, signal number 10
Reserve channel 2 LowByte Signal type 3, group 7, signal number 11
Reserve channel 2 High-
Byte
Signal type 3, group 7, signal number 12
An OMI module is necessary to transmit analogue values to the reserve
channels of the SD module. The OMI module has an A/D converter to
convert analogue signals from 0…10 V to digital data. These can then be
evaluated by the SD module. The reserve channels are determined In the
configuration file of the OMI module as follows:
Reserve channel 1 Signal type 3, group 7, signal number 5
Reserve channel 2 Signal type 3, group 7, signal number 6
If several modules are combined in one welding power source (e.g. OMI
with Profi-Bus), it is important that signals of one group are never divided
over both modules. This would result in malfunctions.
