hapter 3. Model 307 Icons, Buttons, and Symbols
Symbols and Icons have been used throughout this manual to illustrate key
points. It is hoped that this will make the manual easier to understand and to
translate for non-English-speaking people. The Windows™ operating system
uses icons as buttons that must be touched or clicked on with a mouse to
perform certain functions.
Table 1. Toolbar Icons.
Table 2. Computer buttons which appear on the touch
screen and open screens or perform functions on the Model
307 are shown in Table 2.
Table 3. Windows™- based Computer Icons used on
the Model 307 Power Supply.
Table 4. Graphic symbols used in this manual. (Symbols
related to Safety are shown in Chapter 2.) The source of the
original symbols are listed when known. When symbols
have been used in previously unpublished combinations, the
source of the original symbols are given as well as the
designation AMI to show that they have been modified in
some way by Arc Machines, Inc.
Graphic Symbols. Graphic symbols designed for use on
arc welding and cutting apparatus have been published
(1999 revision) by the National Electric Manufacturers
Association (NEMA). While many of these symbols were
shown alone, suggestions for using them in combination to
describe combined functions were presented. In this manual
several of the Graphic symbols have been combined in new
ways. For example, the rabbit is the symbol for fast, while
the tortoise is the symbol for slow or idle. Together they can
mean run/ idle or speed. When combined with the symbol
for electrode, the combined symbols can be used to signify
electrode travel speed. The addition of the curved arrow,
which is the symbol for direction of rotation, creates a
symbol for the direction of electrode travel.
