Limit Errors Tab
Overview
When Weld Engineers set up Weld Profiles for operators to use when welding a part, they set limits for
several attributes of the weld. If, during the weld, the measurements for these attributes fall below the
minimum value or above the maximum value set for the weld, the system considers that “out of limit”. If
the measurements fall right within the range established, the system considers that “in limit”.
The Limit Errors tab displays the number of welds that were in or out of limits for Current, Voltage, Wire
Feed Speed, Time (i.e., duration) and WeldScore™ limits for either a single Welding Power Source or for a
Container of power sources in the time frame indicated. You can view the Limit Error data for Today, Last 7
Days or Custom (which allows you to fine tune your graphs).
NOTE | The reports in the Standard version of CheckPoint™ only
displays up to 30 days of data. This is important when you
select date ranges in the Criteria window of a report. The
Premium version of CheckPoint™ allows you to access
report data for up to one (1) year.
Today
The graphs that appear for the Today report display information for welding performed over the last 24
hours. The system displays the total number of welds performed each hour and how many of those welds
were within the limits set for the Weld Profile used and how many were outside the limits set for the
profiles they used. The graphs are the same whether you have a single Welding Power Source selected in
the Asset Tree or a Container of power sources.
