P.80

Sense From Studs

Use this option for diagnostic purposes only. When power is cycled, this option is automatically
reset to False.
False = Voltage sensing is automatically determined by the selected weld mode and other
machine settings (default).
True = Voltage sensing is forced to "studs".

P.81

Electrode Polarity

Used in place of DIP switches for configuration of the electrode sense lead. This option allows selec-
tion of the electrode voltage sense polarity. Most GMAW welding procedures use Electrode Positive
welding. Most GTAW and some inner shield procedures use Electrode Negative welding.

Positive Electrode Welding (default).
Negative Electrode Welding.

This option will only appear in the menu if the feedhead board does not have a dip switch to set the
polarity, and the power source does not support auto-hardware sense lead configuration. If this
option does not apper in the menu, voltage sense polarity can be selected using the dip switches.

P.82

Voltage Sense Display

Allows viewing of Voltage Sense Lead Selection to aid in troubleshooting. The configuration is
displayed as a text string on the lower display whenever the output is enabled. This parameter
is not saved on a power cycle, but will be reset to False.

P.99

Show Test Modes

Most power sources contain weld modes used for calibration and test purposes. By default, the
machine does not include test weld modes in the list of weld modes that are available to the
operator. To manually select a test weld mode, set this option to "Yes". When the power source
is turned off and back on again, the test modes will no longer appear in the mode list. Test weld
modes typically require the machine output to be connected to a grid load and cannot be used
for welding.

P.100

View Diagnostics

Diagnostics are only used for servicing or troubleshooting the Power Wave system. Select
"Yes" to access the diagnostic options in the menu. Additional parameters will now appear in
the setup menu (P.101, P.102, etc).

View Event Logs

Used for viewing all the system event logs. Press the Right Button to enter the option. Rotate
Control Knob to select the desired event log to read. Press the Right Button again to enter the
selected log. Rotating the Control Knob will scroll through the event log, displaying the log
index number, event code and some other data. Press the Left Button to back out to select
another log. Press the Left Button again to exit this option.

Used for viewing all the system fatal logs. Press the Right Button to enter the option. Rotate
Control Knob to select the desired fatal log to read. Press the Right Button again to enter that
log. Rotating the Control Knob will scroll through the log, displaying the log index number and
fatal code. Press the Left Button to back out to select another log. Press the Left Button again
to exit this option.
