4.

Enter an IP address in the DNS server field.

This information is not mandatory. If you are unable
to obtain it, you can still continue.

If you are using a proxy server, continue with step 5.

If you are not using a proxy server, skip to step 6.

5.

If you are using a proxy server, place a check

mark in the Proxy Server checkbox under
Enable Proxy Server and enter the IP address
of that server in the Proxy Server IP field.

If you are not using a Proxy Server, you can leave
these options blank and continue with step 6.

You can obtain the proxy information from the
Network Administrator. This information is necessary
in order to gain access to the Internet from your
network through the proxy server.

6.

Once you have entered all required

information, click the Apply settings button.

The system displays the End User License Agreement.

Power Wave® Manager resets the Welding

Power Source when you click the Apply settings
button. Be careful that the power source is not
currently welding.

7.

Accept the End User Agreement to continue.

Once you have applied your settings, you need to test
those settings and make sure the connection to the
data center is successful.

8.

Click

the

Send Test Message button.

If the settings were correct, you should receive the
Status: Success message displayed under the button
(Figure 2.2).

TIP |

If you received a Status: Failed message, you

can hover your mouse over the message to see why
your test failed. Please refer to Appendix A for
more details.

One final step remains and that is to save an
installation key file for the Welding Power Source
that you will upload to CheckPoint™ in order to
create your company’s account. See page 2.10 for
more information.
