Each weld program has a number of optional features.
Parameter
Range Description
Pre-heat
on/off
Enables or disables the Pre-heat parameters
Post-heat
2
on/off
Enables or disables the Post-heat parameters
Pulsations
1 - 99
The number of times the Main heat – Cool2 interval is repeated
Link
2
on/off
The next welding program will be started automatically if the
input signals are maintained
Repeat
on/off
The welding program will be repeated if the input signals are
maintained
Force profile
on/off
Use multiple force values during the weld
Inhibit
1
on/off
An inhibited program will not run
C-Monitor shunt
2
on/off
The measured conduction will be checked against the C-Monitor
shunt limit
C-Monitor wear
2
on/off
The measured conduction will be checked against the C-Monitor
wear limit
Retry
2
On/off
Weld schedule will re-run if a Low Main Current is detected – spot
welds only.
1
If an inhibited program is not linked then attempting to run it will produce an error message. If
the program is linked, then the program will be skipped and the next linked program will run.
This feature may be used to temporarily disable a program in a cascade.
2
Extended mode must be set in Configuration to use
this feature
Pulsations can be used to temper the material, control nugget
growth and reduce electrode wear.
The START signal must be maintained for the full duration of the
sequence if pulsations are set to 10 or more, otherwise the
sequence will terminate after 10 pulses.
