Modifying Tolerances

Overview

The user can modify the tolerance values. This is
done by:
1) Use the joystick to highlight the equipment setting

or parameter to change.

2) Press the red select button.
3) Use the joystick to change the value. Pressing the

green set tolerances button will save the changes.

The following screens are used to modify tolerances:

• Tolerances Equipment Settings screen
• Tolerances Gas screen
• Tolerances Welding Technique Parameters screen
• Tolerances Pattern and Aim screen
• Tolerances Whip and Travel Speed screen
• Tolerances Weave screen

Next & Previous

Use the arrow buttons to cycle through the tolerance
editor screens.

The configuration and process selected are shown at
the top of the screen.

In the upper right of the screen is the name of the tol-
erance set being modified.

Ideal values represent the ideal weld technique para-
meters. If the user welds using the technique listed as
ideal, they will get the best score. The ideal values
are represented by the red line on the LASER screen.
Changing the +/- changes the acceptable tolerance
indicated by the white lines on the LASER screen.
Any welding technique used within that +/- range is
acceptable but will be scored lower the further it is
from the ideal value. As an example, a work angle
with an ideal of 45 degrees and a +/- of 10 degrees
means that the user can use a work angle between 35
and 55 degrees and create an acceptable weld.

Settings that are non-applicable to the process select-
ed are greyed out and cannot be changed.

Menu

This is the same as the tolerance configuration selec-
tion screen.

Pressing back goes to the previous screen without

is shown in the upper right of the screen.

Next Pass

The next pass button changes the pass being modi-
fied to the next pass in the series. If this is the last
pass, this option will not be available.
