Diagnostics
(setup)
Diagnostics is used for troubleshooting purposes. There are four levels
of diagnostics: Turn Logging On/Off, Helmet, Angle Sensor and Speed
Sensor. Read the information below for the purpose of each level. These
processes should only be done in a troubleshooting interaction.
Turn Logging On/Off
The SD card creates a log after each weld to show how the product functioned during that
weld. The SD card can hold up to five logs at one time. Once past five, the oldest log will be
removed. Logs are used by Realityworks’ Product Support team for troubleshooting.
