be respected. If the bar code provided by the fitting
manufacturer contains cooling time data, it will be displayed at
the end of the welding process and will be counted down to zero.
This countdown can be acknowledged and canceled at any time
by the STOP/RESET key. However, note that for that time the pipe
fitting joint which is still warm must not be subjected to an
external force. No cooling time is displayed if the fitting code does
not contain any such information.
5.10 Returning to the Start of Parameter Input
After welding is finished, disconnecting the welded fitting from the unit or pressing the STOP/
RESET key will reset the unit back to the start of entering the welding parameters.

an abstracted version of the
welding reports recorded during the welding processes and printing
it as a label tag to be affixed to the joint on the optionally available
tag printer. The ViewWeld abstract shows the report number, the
date and time of the welding and the welding parameters along
with an evaluation of the quality of the joint/welding operation (see
Display 6) where the first displayed abstract is that of the last
performed welding operation.
To call the ViewWeld abstract of a welding report, press the
ñ
key in the bar code input screen
(see Display 2). Browsing through the saved welding reports is then possible by pressing the
ï
or
ð
cursor keys. To print a tag of the welding operation of which the abstract is currently displayed,
the label tag printer has to be connected to the welder. Then press the START/SET key in the
ViewWeld screen.

Additional Information in the Welding Report
Every welding report saved to system memory, which can be downloaded as a PDF report file or in
the DataWork format, contains a number of welding and traceability data that the operator can
decide to enter or not to enter in the set-up menu.
6.1
Entering Preformatted and User-defined Traceability Data
All traceability data enabled in the configuration menu at “Data Recording” (see Sect. 10) have to
be entered before the welding process. The welding unit prompts the user to enter them either
before or after entering the fitting bar code (see Display 2). Depending on what data is entered,
either its repeated input is mandatory (e. g., the welder ID code; see Sect. 5.2) or previously
entered data can be changed and confirmed or confirmed without changes (e. g. the commission
number; see Sect. 6.2).
Certain traceability data can also be accessed quickly,
