Downtime Tab
The Downtime tab summarizes any faults that occur in the system and how much “downtime” has
accumulated due to each type of fault and displays this data in either a graph or chart format. This is a
great tool if you need to figure out why your welders aren’t welding.
For example, if a Thermostat fault occurred at 11:01:05 AM and cleared at 11:06:30 AM, this counts as a
single fault with a duration of five (5) minutes and 25 seconds.
NOTE | Only the primary event that caused a Welding Power
Source to fault will be displayed and counted. While the
primary event is active, no other events that happen will be
displayed or counted.
Downtime Criteria
The criteria available for the Downtime reports allow you to customize the reports to meet your needs.
Table 5.22 explains the fields in more detail. The criteria for both reports are the same, with the exception
of one additional field that is available for the Chart report (i.e., Top Quantity). For more in-depth
information on report criteria in general, please see page 5.4.
