Register
The Register section in Power Wave® Manager allows you to perform some of the necessary installation
procedures for the Production Monitoring™ and CheckPoint™ applications, as well as review the current
welds in the memory of the Welding Power Source. For more information on either of these applications,
refer to the Production Monitoring™ User Manual or the CheckPoint™ User Manual, whichever is relevant
for your power source model.
Saving an Installation Key File
Each individual power source has a unique installation key file. The system uses these files to register the
equipment in Production Monitoring™ or CheckPoint™. The steps below walk you through how to save the
installation key file for the Welding Power Source. Each Welding Power Source you add to Production
Monitoring™ or CheckPoint™ needs its own key file.
Figure 10.2 Save an Installation Key File
On the Registration tab of Power Wave® Manager (Figure 10.2), simply click the Save Production
Monitoring Installation Key button and save the file on your computer or network. Close Power Wave®
Manager when finished
STOP | It is recommended that you do not change the text in the
Power Source name field, especially after creating files from
the power source (e.g., training files or backups). Power
Wave® Manager uses the Power Source name to organize
and name weld training, backups, SnapShot files, weld logs,
calibration logs, and more. If you change a name, you will
have to find and load files manually.
CheckPoint™ Setup
The options in the CheckPoint Setup section of this tab allow you to enable CheckPoint™ for the Welding
Power Source to which you are currently connected and to verify that connection. For more in-depth
details on setting up CheckPoint™, please refer to the CheckPoint™ User Manual.
