TIP | It is good practice to record the results of these tests when
the welding system is operating well. You can then use
those values to compare to values taken when there are
welding problems on the same weld cell. This may help
isolate the problem when the old and new numbers are
significantly different.
Sense Lead Diagnostics Tab
The Sense lead diagnostics tab helps you troubleshoot arc starting problems or erratic arc behavior by
testing and changing the location of the sense lead temporarily. Over time, the constant movement of
equipment, such as robot motion, can cause arc voltage sense leads to detach. The settings on this tab
allow you to test and verify the connectivity and reliability of the voltage sense selection currently set. This
is done by a process of testing voltage sense starting at the studs, then incrementally moving to the remote
voltage sense locations.
NOTE | Any changes made in this tab are temporary and are reset
when the power to the Welding Power Source is turned off.
