System Operation
1. If the generator is not online, press the ON
LINE key. This is labeled E in Figure 11–1.
The green ON LINE status should light up (F
in Figure 11–2).
2. Program the appropriate weld method and time
or energy to achieve the desired welding results.
3. Apply the probe to the components to be ultra-
sonically joined, and press the probe’s activation
switch, or press the palm switches on the press
base. In automation systems, the customer sup-
plies external controls to trigger the generator.
4. The Power Output display will light up to in-
dicate the percentage of power being delivered
to the probe while the trigger switch is en-
gaged.
5. The Power Output display should never reach
100% during normal operation.
6. The Power Output display should go blank in-
dicating zero output power, after the probe trig-
ger is released.
