SAVE AND LOAD WELDING SETTINGS
The current settings are automatically saved and loaded at start up. In addition to the current settings, it is possible to save and recall so-called «JOB»
configurations. The « JOB « button is used to save, recall or delete a configuration. 50 Jobs can be stored per welding process.
Job creation
- Adjust all desired welding parameters,
- Press and hold the «JOB» button for more than 3 seconds,
- « IN » appears on the display,
- Select a job number using the incremental encoder. Only numbers that are not already associated with a previously saved job can be selected and
are indicated on the display,
- Once the job number is chosen, press the «JOB» button to validate and save it under the selected number,
- The job number is then displayed, indicating that the job has been saved. The number display continues to flash until another button or the torch
trigger is activated.
Note: If all numbers are already assigned to saved jobs, the HMI displays «Full».
Job recall
Apart from not being in the process of welding, the job recall does not require any particular initial condition:
- Press the «JOB» button briefly (not exceeding 2 seconds),
- « OUT » appears on the HMI display,
- With the incremental encoder, select a job number. Only the numbers associated with existing jobs appear on the display If no job is stored, the HMI
displays «- - - -».
- Once the job number is selected, press the «JOB» button to confirm the configuration. The job number then flickers on the display, indicating that
the job was loaded. The number continues to flicker until another parameter is changed or until the torch trigger is pressed to start the welding cycle.
Job deletion
- Press the «JOB» button briefly (not exceeding 2 seconds),
- « OUT » appears on the HMI display,
- With the incremental encoder, select a job number. Only numbers associated with existing jobs can be displayed,
- Press the « JOB » button 3 consecutive times. The selected job is now deleted and the power source
displays the welding current again.
