Steppers
A stepper is programmed by means of a curve which will provide values of heat and current increments
related to the number of spots done. The curve is defined by a set of 10 points.

Description
Step
0 - 9
The step number
Spots
welds
0 - 9999
The number of welds in the step
+Heat
%
0.0 - 50.0
The increase in heat during the step
+Current
%
0.0 - 50.0
The increase in current during the step
Preset
1 - 5
Apply predefined values to the stepper curve
Enable stepper
yes/no
Enables or disables the stepper
Stop at end
yes/no
The iPAK2 can inhibit welding at the end of the last step
Spots done
welds
0 - 99999
The number of welds that have been done since the last reset
P/W and CCu modes will make use of both the +Heat and +Current parameters. CCC mode uses only
the +Current parameters.
The Stepper output is active at the end of the last step. The Prewarn output is active during the last
step.
To get started
enter the values for Step 9 then select a Preset to load the intermediate values
