WELD SENTRY 2
PROGRAMMING MENU FEATURES
PRINTER and COMPUTER OUTPUT
(1)
Select PRINT OPTIONS to configure the type of data output which will be transmitted to a printer
or computer through the RS232 port. Any data sent to a printer would also be sent to a computer.
Note: Data transmission increases the time required for the Sentry to return to the Ready state to
monitor the next weld. To increase the monitoring rate turn off unnecessary data output.
PRINT RESULTS FOR: Determines if data will be output automatically after each weld.
NONE:
Turns off all data output after each weld.
ALL
WELDS:
Data
is
output after every weld.
REJECT ONLY:
Data is output only when the measurement results are Reject Hi or
Reject Lo.
WHICH UNIT OF MEASURE: Determines which measurement units will be printed when
results are output. This selection is not applicable when "Print Results
For:" is NONE.
ALL:
Results of all 6 measurement units will be printed for each Program. If
extended modes are ON, all 12 units will be printed.
ONE SELECTED:
Results for only the programmed measurement unit will be output.
PRINT GRAPHS: Determines if the Graphic data will be output along with the results. This
selection is not applicable when "Print Results For:" is NONE.
NO:
Turns off all graphic output after each weld.
YES:
A graph is output with each measurement result.
RAW DATA:
The A/D value for each Voltage and Current sample will be output
along with each result. See Section 4 - Specifications.
DATA FORMAT: Select either ASCII or Binary. Only applicable if RAW DATA is
selected.
EXPANSION SCALE: Determines the expansion scale for the graphic printouts and sets the
milliseconds per division marked on the graph. The larger the scale
the longer the graph.
x1:
10 milliseconds per division
x5:
2 milliseconds per division
x2:
5 milliseconds per division
x10: l millisecond per division
PRINT SCHEDULES/PROGRAMS:
YES: Each time a Schedule or Program change is Saved, a summary printout will be
printed automatically.
NO: Turns off the summary output.
(2)
Select PRINT UTILITIES to transmit data or graphs from memory.
