Status
The Status widget (Figure 8.2) displays current information for the Welding Power Source you have
selected in the Asset Tree. CheckPoint™ displays a picture of the Welding Power Source and basic
information for the last 24 hours. Table 8.1 explains the data in more detail.
Figure 8.2 Status Widget
The background color of the data in this section reflects what the Welding Power Source is doing (or not
doing) right now on the floor. There is a slight delay of a few seconds as the power source communicates
with CheckPoint™ and the information updates. The following colors indicate the various states of the
Welding Power Source:
Red: Faulted (i.e., Not Ready, Latched Fault or Faulted)
One of the following conditions could cause the Welding Power Source to show as Faulted:
-
The Welding Power Source is either currently being reprogrammed or has experienced
an event that may prevent it from welding. Refer to the Power Wave® Manager User
Manual under System Status for information on diagnosing the fault.
-
A Latched Fault caused the Welding Power Source to stop welding. This latched fault
must be reset before the Welding Power Source will weld again. Refer to the Power
Wave® Manager User Manual under Alarm Latch for more information on how to
reset this.
Green: This color indicates that the power source is currently welding.
TIP |
If the Welding Power Source is currently performing a weld,
the Time Since Last Weld text changes to Arc Time. This is
amount of time the Welding Power Source has currently
been welding.
Yellow: The Welding Power Source is active and ready to weld but in an idle state (not welding).
Gray: CheckPoint™ has not been able to communicate with the Welding Power Source within
the last three minutes. Check that the Welding Power Source is turned on and that there are no
problems with the Ethernet network.
