data in smaller segments of time. The Zoom out icon ( ) condenses data and displays the time segments

in larger segments.
For example, if your chart currently displays one second of data segmented every millisecond and you click

the Zoom in icon, the chart begins to expand that one second into parts of a second. When you click the

Zoom out icon, the display condenses again to show you the data segmented every millisecond. (Displays

vary depending on the weld data.)
You can also click the Max Zoom icon ( ) to quickly display the most time segments or click the Min Zoom

icon ( ) to view the fewest time segments.

Backup/Restore

The Backup/Restore section of Power Wave® Manager allows you to save Welding Power Source settings

(e.g., memory configuration, lockout parameters, and network settings) to a backup file. You can use this

file to restore the saved settings at a later time to the same Welding Power Source or to a different power

source (e.g., if you want to configure each power source the same way).

Backing Up a Power Source

The Backup tab (Figure 9.6) provides you with the list of information in various categories that you will save

when you click the Backup button. Click through the sub-tabs to see what the backup file could contain.

The backup file will include the information if that information exists on the Welding Power Source.
