SECTION 12 − TEACH POINTS
12-1. Teach Points Explained
The teach mode allows the user to
create custom pulse programs. The
teach mode has 15 teach points. At
each teach point, the user can ad-
just five parameters to shape the
pulse waveform of the weld output.
The six parameters are: IPM
(MPM), Apk, Abk, Vpk, PPS, and
PWms.
Apk, Vpk, Abk, PPS, and PWms
acting together provide the energy
necessary to burn off welding wire
at a set wire feed speed. The graph
below shows that as wire feed
speed increases, energy increases
(Apk, Vpk, Abk, PPS, and PWms
acting synergically).
Under some conditions, the wire
feeder limits wire feed speed to
maintain all pulse parameters with-
in the capability of the system.
