Instruction Manual 

TE470/TE480 

 

S.p.A. 

CHAPTER 5 - STOP DUE TO SPOTS OUT OF LIMIT 

The machine may be stopped when a consecutive series of out-of-limits welds occur. This stop allows the user 
to keep under control the welding current consistency for the purpose of obtaining constant qualitative results. 
The number of consecutive welds that stop the control unit is set via the STOP SPOTS parameter in the setup 
menu (refer to the relevant paragraph for the programming).  

 

   SETUP MENU 
STOP SPOTS   1 

 

This value may vary from 0 to 9. When programmed to 0, the function is disabled and therefore the welder does 
not stop under any circumstance on exceeding set limits. 

It is important to note that in order to count the out-of-limit welds, they must be consecutive. In addition 
to setting the STOP SPOTS parameter, also enable the CONTROL MODE parameter in one of the control 
unit's allowed modes.

  

 
The TE470/TE480 can work in one of the following control modes. 
 

5.1 - WELDING CURRENT LIMITS 

Activate this mode by setting parameter PRM B - CONTROL MODE to CUR. 

 

ADJ1 PRG01 PRM B 
CONTROL MODE CUR 

 

Two new parameters will be displayed: 

CURR MIN 

lower current limit 

CURR MAX 

higher current limit 

These two parameters enable to set the welding current limit-values. 

 

ADJ1 PRG01 PRM17 
CURR. MIN  10.5 

ADJ1 PRG01 PRM18 
CURR. MAX  12.5 

 

When the programmed condition occurs, the control unit stops and an error message is displayed. The 
displayed message refers to the error condition of the last run weld. In current control mode (CONTROL MODE 
= CUR), if the current value of the last weld is lower or higher than the values set in the foregoing parameters, 
one of the following messages is displayed: 

 

   STOP LIMIT 
    MIN CURR. 

   STOP LIMIT 
    MAX CURR. 

 

5.2 – CONDUCTION ANGLE LIMITS 

Activate this mode by setting parameter PRM B - CONTROL MODE to DEG. 

ADJ1 PRG01 PRM B 
CONTROL MODE  DEG 

 
 

Two new parameters will be displayed: 

ANGLE MIN 

    conduction angle lower limit 

ANGLE MAX      conduction angle upper limit 

that permit setting current conduction angle limit values. 

 

ADJ1 PRG01 PRM17 
ANGLE MIN   080 

ADJ1 PRG01 PRM18 
ANGLE MAX   120 

 

In conduction angle control mode (CONTROL MODE = DEG), if the current conduction angle value of the last 
weld is less than or greater than the values set in the foregoing parameters, one of the following messages is 
displayed: 

 

 STOP LIMIT 

LOW ANGLE 

STOP LIMIT 
HIGH ANGLE 

 
To reset these errors, simply release the cycle start control button and press a key
