CHAPTER 7
- THE WORK CYCLE
The work cycle carried out by the TE550 is described by adjusting the programming
parameters. These parameters describe operating times and current adjustments that make
up the work cycle when run in sequence.
The following chart shows the sequence in which the programmed functions are carried out.

Parameters marked by symbol * may either be enabled or disabled depending on which
welder is used and the job it must perform.
For safety reasons, the microprocessor does not start the weld cycle
if the cycle start signal is activated on turning-on the welder.
Therefore simply release the control and then activate it again.
Micro-cutoffs or excessive voltage drops do not alter the work mode
but just stop the control unit. Just turn off the machine and then turn
it on again to restore operations.
