RECORDING & PRINTING HISTORY
History
All recordings are available with several information in a history (up to 99 recordings).
To get there, click on the «disabled» box under the heading «Acquisition» and then click on «Open» in the «Recording» menu.
The measurement history gives the following information: Backup number, backup date and time, weld bead duration if recording > 0 seconds,
voltage, current, speed and gas flow. The software calculates the total welding energy of the weld bead in kJ (see equation 2), it is necessary to
divide the energy in kJ by the length of the weld bead (in mm). It is also possible to add a note. Lines can be deleted by clicking on «Save» and
then «Delete».

If the recording of points and weld beads is suitable, it is possible to save it and print it in pdf using the «Save» tab and then clicking on «Print».
It is also possible to export the document in. csv (compatible with all spreadsheets: Excel, LibreOffice, etc). Using the .csv file it is then possible to
amend the report. It is possible to export it in pdf from the spreadsheet after customisation. A template file is available on the USB stick provided.
