red select button on the VR weld machine. The joy-
stick allows the user to navigate the keyboard graphic
to highlight letters. Pressing the red select button
enters the letter highlighted into the enter name box
as indicated. The virtual keyboard starts with shift

delete the last character entered.

Selecting the orange language menu button brings up
the list of languages the software supports. Use the
joystick to highlight the desired language.
Press the red select button to accept.
Press the orange language menu button again to exit
the language menu. The system stores the language
selection and will automatically start up in the same lan-
guage the next time.

The blue unit menu button brings up the measurement
system. Use the joystick to highlight the desired unit of
measurement. Press the red select button to accept.
Press the blue button again to exit the measurement
unit menu. Selecting Metric or Imperial converts the
user interface into the corresponding measurement sys-
tem. The system stores the measurement selection, so
it will automatically start up in the same unit of measure-
ment the next time. The system uses the units shown
in Table B.1.
4. Menu
The red menu button allows the student to shut down
the system. If the user selects shutdown, a submenu
appears asking the user if they are sure that they want
to shut down the system. This prompt prevents the
user from accidentally shutting down the system. If the
user selects “Yes”, the VRTEX
® 360 will shut down.
THIS METHOD SHOULD ALWAYS BE USED TO
SHUT DOWN THE VRTEX
® 360. Failure to do this
could cause damage to the system.

lines above have been made, the green panel button is
pressed to continue to set up process.

The circular USB icon in the upper right corner of the
screen indicates the presence of a USB memory stick in
the front of the machine. A translucent icon indicates no

USB memory stick is in place in the front of the
machine.
