HIGH C-FACTOR LIMIT:
(FAULT) (ALERT) (NONE)
LOW C-FACTOR LIMIT:
(FAULT) (ALERT) (NONE)
These two conditions indicate that the actual C-Factor read during the
weld exceeded or fell below the values programmed in the C-Factor
function (C-FACTOR LIMIT: HI=nnn LOW=nnn).
The low limit is helpful to detect cable and connection deterioration.
The upper limit can detect secondary bridges and shunting paths.
SYSTEM COOLING:
(FAULT)
This fault is generated if the control receives a valid weld initiate and
the TRANSFORMER OVER-TEMPERATURE/ SYSTEM COOLING
input is not active. This fault is also generated if the SCR thermal switch
is tripped.
HEAT CYCLE LIMIT:
(FAULT)
This fault is generated when the control detects that the number of
consecutive weld cycles where conduction occurred exceeded the limit
programmed in the Heat Cycle Limit (0=SEAM) setup parameter.
When the limit is exceeded, the weld schedule is finished in No Weld
Mode. The control generates a HEAT CYCLE LIMIT fault.
WELD PROCEED:
(FAULT) (ALERT) (NONE)
This fault is generated if the appropriate WELD PROCEED input does
not become active within the number of cycles specified in the function
WAIT nnn CY. FOR WELD PROCEED input #n.
CONTROL IN NO WELD:
(FAULT) (ALERT) (NONE)
This fault occurs if the control moves from Weld Mode into No Weld
Mode while sequencing. This fault is also generated if the control
receives a weld initiate while in No Weld Mode.
INITIATION ON POWER-UP:
(FAULT)
This fault is set if initiates are present on power-up. It is NOT
programmable; it assumes the FAULT status by default.
NO WORK DETECTION:
(FAULT)
This fault is a function of CHC. The weld control generates this fault
when no resistance is detected during the weld.
LOW HEAT DETECTION:
(FAULT)
This fault is a function of CHC. The weld control generates this fault
when a low heat condition is detected during the weld.
WIRE BREAK DETECTION:
(FAULT)
This fault is a function of CHC. The weld control generates this fault
when input from the stainless steel wire goes low.
