F33 Disable Welding on

Weld Error

OFF ON

OFF

Turn this on to disable welding when a weld is out of specified weld
energy/ drop range. Flashes ‘WELD ERROR!’ and requires a password

to continue. Password is 123456 by default, but can be changed to any

number up to 9 di- gits. Use lock mode 2 or 3 to set this password.

F34 Drop Time Tolerance 0 to 1000

100

This defines the tolerance allowed from target weld drop time for deter-

mining good/bad weld.

F35 Weld Energy

Tolerance

1 to 20

This defines the tolerance allowed from target weld drop time for deter-

mining good/bad weld.

F36

Process Monitor

Error code on failed

weld

OFF ON

OFF

When enabled, an error code is given when the weld is out of tolerance.

F37 Pulse Cleaning

Enable

OFF ON

OFF

When enabled, the weld current will pulse high current and low current

be- fore the weld.

F38 Pulse Cleaning

Threshold Voltage

0.00 to 50.00

30.00

Threshold voltage to stop pulsing and begin the main weld. When

voltage is above this value, it terminates pulsing and starts the weld.

F39 Pulse Cleaning

Maximum Pulses

1 to 10

Maximum number of pulses before starting main weld.
