5.7 Network connection
This accessory component is only available as a “factory-fit option”.
The network connection allows the integration of the product into an existing network and exchanging
data using the quality-management software Xnet. Some features of the software:
• Real-time display of the welding parameters
• Recording / documentation
• Monitoring of welding parameters
• Maintenance
• Calculations
• WPS management
• Welder management
• xButton management
• Component management
The functionality of the software is in constant development (see the documentation for Xnet).
As standard, welding machines are supplied with a fixed IP address.
Depending on the machine version, the IP address is displayed in the device control or shown on a sti-
cker either below the rating plate or near the control.
The gateway and the server / computer must be in the same network or IP address range to allow
the configuration of the gateway.
