TIP | If the Action on WeldScore limit value field is grayed out,
either the power source does not support WeldScore™ or
the power source has older firmware that needs to be
updated. See page 3.1 for details on upgrading the power
source’s firmware.
Table 10.2 Available Actions When a Weld is Out of Limits
Field Description
Log Event This option tells the Welding Power Source to create an event log entry to record
that the weld was out of limits. The power source continues welding, even if the
weld does not meet limits set on the Weld Profile.
Fault System If you select this option, the power source will stop the weld currently in progress
when it detects the weld has gone outside the limits set by the Weld Profile. The
Weld Operator can make adjustments and begin welding again.
Alarm Latch When you select this option, a weld that goes outside the limits set by the Weld
Profile causes the power source to enter into a faulted state when the weld ends
(also known as a “latched fault”). In order for the power source to continue
welding, the Weld Operator must clear the fault.
You can reset an Alarm Latch fault on the Diagnostic tab under Production
Monitoring > Register (page 10.3), or by cycling the power to the Welding Power
Source (off then back on).
Profile Limits Tab
The Profile limits tab is where you set limits or adjust trained limits for every Weld Profile available to the
Welding Power Source. Each power source stores all Weld Profiles that are available, but it can only access
the profiles based on the choice you make on the Weld Profile selection tab (page 10.4). You can set the
profile limits manually on the Profile limits tab or you can teach the power source what you consider to be
a weld within limits.
STOP | Be sure you plan your Weld Profiles before you begin. See
page 11.1 for more details.
STOP | For information on training a weld for a Weld Profile, please
refer to Chapter 11.
