Pin 5 (Remote Setup Selection Bit 2 Input)
Pin 5 is the Remote Setup Selection Bit 2, which is the
third least significant bit used to select different welding
setups with an automation control system.
Pin 6
(Remote Setup Selection Bit 3 Input)
Pin 6 is the Remote Setup Selection Bit 3, which is the
second most significant bit used to select different weld-
ing setups with an automation control system.
Pin 7 (Remote Setup Selection Bit 4 Input)
Pin 7 is the Remote Setup Selection Bit 4, which is the
most significant bit used to select different welding setups
with an automation control system.
Pin 8
(Ultrasound Activation/ Cycle Start
Input)
Pin 8 is used to activate the generator ultrasound output.
Activation of this control input will switch the ultrasound
output ON, and deactivating this signal will switch ultra-
sound OFF. This input signal will also function as a cycle
start input, where the ultrasound activation and timing
are completely under the control of the process control-
ler. Depending on the welding process controller setup,
this input signal could be activated momentarily to start
a welding cycle.
Pin 9
(Not Used)
Pin 10
(Not Used)
Pin 11
(Press Inhibit for Hand Probes)
Pin 11 is used to disconnect power applied to a press or
thruster, if a hand probe is connected to the system input
connector, for safety considerations. The hand probe acti-
vation switch could unexpectedly start a welding cycle that
activates a press or thruster to the down position. The hand
probe cable connector is wired to apply chassis ground to
this pin, when it is attached to the system, which activates
a press inhibit relay that disconnects power from the pneu-
matic press valves. This pin must be left open whenever
a press control board is installed. Connecting this pin to
chassis ground will inhibit press operation.
Pin 12
(System Latch Reset Input)
Pin 12 is used to reset the Any Fault or System Overload
status outputs (See Status Output descriptions). If a fault
occurs during a weld cycle, these outputs will normally
remain active until the next weld cycle is initiated. Activat-
ing this input will reset the status output faults and may
simplify automation programming.
NOTE
Refer to
Latch on Bad Part,
on Page 51 for
more information.
Pin 13
(Isolated Common)
Pin 13 is electrically isolated from chassis ground. Using
isolated sourcing (PNP) output drivers, this common line
would be connected to isolated ground potential. Using
isolated sinking (NPN) output drivers, this common line
would be connected to the isolated positive supply volt-
age output.
Pin 14 (Not Used)
Pin 14 is an open connection.
Pin 15 (Automation Cycle Stop Input)
Pin 15 is an input control signal that when enabled, can
be used by the automation control system as a redundant
signal to shut the ultrasound output off. This signal could
also be reconfigured through menu selections to function
as an automation end-of-weld control signal input.
