Press the

key to display the Process Setup

menu. In Process Setup, the cursor should be point-
ing to Process Control as shown in Figure 7–5. If

tion for the Process Control screen is the Trigger
Method which is shown in Figure 7–6.

The flow chart for the Process Control menu with
a hand probe connected is shown in Figure 7–7. If
you do not have a Power Output module installed,
the Energy Weld Method will not be displayed.

the trigger is released. Press
