2.4.1.1
Store Transient Data
This will store the welding waveform data. The data can be analysed using our AMV_Desktop
software. This is available to all purchasers of the AMV3500.
Generally, this is not set as transient data files can be large.
2.4.1.2
WFS pulse
Sets the wire feed speed sensor to a frequency type. The option to use a voltage input sensor is for
legacy compatibility
–
all new sensors are frequency base.
2.4.1.3
RMS Values
If RMS values are preferred this should be turned on. By default if the process is set to AC the RMS
option is activated, otherwise it is off.
2.4.1.4
PICO temp
For compatibility with a TC-08 Pico Data logger, please ask if you are interested in using this option.
2.4.1.5
AutoPassUp
This is for surfacing type applications. In normal operation the pass complete button is blocked
when an arc is recording. This stops an operator accidentally completing a recording before the weld
has completed. However, for a surfacing application the welding arc is maintained during the
completion of the pass. Activating this function allows a pass up to be completed while the AMV
continues to “see” a welding arc. It can result in a few seconds of data loss (
approx. 5 seconds) as
the files are saved and the next pass started.
2.4.1.6
Multi-power source
Voltage and current are set as data channels 1 and 2, but the remaining channels can be configured
as needed. In this case up to 4 current channels can be summed for heat input. For instance, a SAW
system with 4 wires feeding the same weld pool, the assumption is that the voltage is common. Of
course, this is rarely the case, but it can be used as an approximate control.
2.4.1.7
Arc Cancel Option
If this is selected the user has an option to cancel the last recorded arc.
2.4.2
Heat Input
2.4.2.1
Heat Input Calculation
Changes calculation from instantaneous to average.
