Field Description
Average amps Hundreds of times per second, the Welding Power Source takes a measurement of
the arc current being used while the welder is active for this weld. When the weld
is complete, the power source averages those measurements together. The
Average amps column displays that average value for this weld.
Average volts Hundreds of times per second, the Welding Power Source takes a measurement of
the arc voltage being used while the welder is active for this weld. When the weld
is complete, the power source averages those measurements together. The
Average volts column displays that average arc voltage value for this weld.
Settings Tab
The Settings tab allows you to identify which weld sequencer states are modified when you change
a welding setting on the Charts tab (such as Workpoint or Trim). Place a check mark next to the
appropriate states.
NOTE | In order to see a parameter in the charts for the weld, you
must choose the signal before you begin welding. Adding
the signal after completing the weld does not create any
data to display.
