Note
The electrode rotation direction is a Single Entry function and cannot be programmed to
change direction during a weld.
• EVENT 4: LEVEL 1 and FOLLOW-ON LEVELS - at the end of TRAVEL START
DELAY the program will automatically advance to Level 1 and then to follow-on
levels.
If programmed by DEGREES the electrode will rotate to position programmed in each
level before advancing to the next level. If programmed by TIME the electrode will rotate
for the amount of time programmed in each level.
• EVENT 5: DOWNSLOPE – at the end of the last level over the course of the
programmed DOWNSLOPE time both primary and background amps will ramp
down while continuing to pulse until the arc is extinguished.
• EVENT 6: POSTPURGE – once the arc is extinguished the POSTPURGE time
begins counting down. During this time the arc gas continues to flow into the
weldhead.
• EVENT 7: RETURN TO HOME – at the end of the POSTPURGE the gas will
shut off, the weldhead rotor will return to its HOME position, and the Weld
Number will update.
• COMPLETE: after the rotor has returned to its HOME position the welded tube
can be removed from the weldhead.
• Press the PRINT button to print the Weld Schedule if desired.
DO NOT attempt to open the weldhead to remove the weld until the rotor has
returned to its home position.
