Can I make more than one Master at a time?
Yes, if multiple binary selects are used. For example, if the New button is pressed in the Mastering
screen, then three different welds on three different bin selects are made with the welder in auto mode,
as the welds are made the binary selects are sent by the PLC. When the Done button is pressed, there
will be three new Masters made, one for each bin select in the weld sequence. If you only wanted to
make 1 Master on a specific bin select just delete the other two Masters.

Why does the weld monitor display a single weld as several welds?
If you’re using a pulsed weld then the post delay may not be set high enough to account for the time
between pulses. In this case the weld monitor will consider each pulse as an individual weld. Refer to
General Setup in Chapter 6, WMS reference Guide.

Another possibility is that the weld schedule has changed since a master was created (i.e The ‘on’ time
of the weld has increased). The solution in this case is to return the weld schedule to it’s previous weld
length, create a new master so that the monitor will accommodate the length of the weld.

For additional possibilities, refer to Chapter 10, Trouble-Shooting Guide.
