Operating instructions BMK-20i | Heinz Soyer Bolzenschweißtechnik 67
Setting the lift height (drop time) in the "Setup" mode
For drawn arc welding guns, the stud is lifted for a defined height/time just before the
welding process and automatically lowered again during the welding process.
As the lift height of the stud is difficult to measure, the equivalent drop time is specified
on the stud welding device.
In the following setting of the drop time, the welding process is simulated in the "Setup"
mode. The lifting and lowering of the stud is the same as during welding, only the
welding current is not activated.
Operating modes

Setup mode: No welding is carried out when simulating a welding process.

Operating mode (normal mode): Welding is carried out.
Danger from incorrect operating mode
If the following setting operations are not carried out in the setup mode but in the
operating mode, pressing the release button on the gun causes a weld to be carried
out.

Make sure that the "Setup" mode is activated for the lift test.
