•
C LED lit when Cycle Start button is pressed
•
User sets Welding Speed before pressing Cycle Start button
•
Display will countdown total distance remaining (1.0 in)
•
A or B LED will light as appropriate for welding mode
NOTE:
Machine travels at higher speed during Non-Welding travel
•
The intermittent cycle will continue until the Total Length is satisfied or the Stop Sensor is
tripped
INTERMITTENT WELDING
The Travel Speed Adjustment Knob is used for entering the parameters for intermittent or stitch
welding. Follow the steps below to enter the welding parameters.
1. Press the Travel Speed Adjustment Knob. The A LED will illuminate.
2. Turn the Travel Speed Adjustment Knob (clo / counterclockwise -) to set the WELD
LENGTH. The length adjusts.*
3. Press the Travel Speed Adjustment Knob again. The B LED will illuminate.
4. Turn the Travel Speed Adjustment Knob to set the NON-WELD LENGTH. The length adjusts.*
5. Press the Travel Speed Adjustment Knob again. The C LED will illuminate.
6. Turn the Travel Speed Adjustment Knob to set the TOTAL LENGTH. The length adjusts.*
7. Press the travel Speed Adjustment Knob again. All LEDs are unlit.
*Note: measurement is in inches or cm. according to the unit setting - refer to Converting Units on pg.9.
Intermittent Welding is available in two forms - User Defined and Total Length. With User Defined
welding, user enters values for Weld Length and Non-Weld Length. Either A or B LED must be lit when
pressing Cycle Start Button. Intermittent Weld continues until user presses Cycle Stop Button.
For Total Length welding, user enters values for all three stitch parameters. C LED must be lit when
pressing Cycle Start Button. Intermittent welding ends when Total Length has been met.
INTERMITTENT WELDING LOCK OUT
To lock out the intermittent (stitch) welding controls, press and hold the Travel Speed Adjustment knob
for three (3) seconds. All of the LEDs will flash. To unlock the intermittent welding controls, press and
hold the Travel Speed Adjustment Knob for three (3) seconds. While in lockout, the machine will be
unable to perform intermittent welding.
STOP SENSOR OPERATION
The K-BUG 4000 is equipped with a magnetic proximity sensor, mounted internal to the carriage, on the
non-torch side. When the sensor detects the end of the work piece, it stops carriage travel and initiates
weld shutdown (crater fill).
