The menu changes to display the Initiate mode as
shown in Figure 7–35. We will assume a standard
press configuration using the dual palm operate
switches. Since we will manually trigger the press,
move the cursor to
MANUAL and press ENTER .
You can see from the flow chart in Figure 7–30
that we bypass both the
AUTO STOP and HEAD UP
ON AUTO STOP menus when we select manual
mode. The next menu displayed is TRIGGER TYPE
which is shown in Figure 7–36.
The trigger type used for most welding conditions
should be
MOMENTARY . Use the down arrow key
to select Momentary and press ENTER . We are now
at the central Process Control menu. It is shown
below in Figure 7–37.
The cursor is pointing to Weld Mode by default.
Note there is a small difference between the word-
ing of the Process Control menu for Press and for

Auto Probe. The Press option reads Weld Mode
whereas the Auto Probe menu reads Weld Method.
We leave
WELD MODE selected and press ENTER .
The next menu (Figure 7–38) appears only in press
mode. It is titled Weld Mode and offers a choice of
welding modes. You must have a dual–pressure
press to use the dual pressure mode. A single pres-
sure press displays Weld Method (see Figure 7–15).
To demonstrate the complete set of options, we
will select
DUAL PRESSURE and push the ENTER
key. We can select time or energy as the welding
parameter during the P1 portion of the welding
cycle. This corresponds to the block labeled
PRES-
SURE 1 in Figure 7–58. Select WELD BY TIME and
press the ENTER key.
A data entry screen appears requesting the value
of the weld time for pressure one. On the flow
chart (Figure 7–30) this is labeled T
1 weld
. The data
entry screen is shown below in Figure 7–40.
