where the ACL information is not necessary such as in weld procedure
development.
5.4 Option [4 List (of Saved Procedures)] provides a directory of the
saved weld procedures residing on the memory of the ACL. This provides
a quick reference to the user for finding an applicable weld procedure
without having to load and view each procedure, or having to print out each
individual procedure.
The first column is the procedure name. A procedure with a “/#” after it
indicates a revision. The revisions will show as “/A”, “/B”, and so on.
The second column consists of the four identification lines appearing
at the beginning of the procedure Weld Record (see Modifying Weld
Procedures, Section 2.9).
The third column shows the last date and time the weld procedure was
modified and saved.
5.5 Option [5 Calib(rate Data)] provides the Motor Calibration results of
the latest calibration sequence.
This result is either from initial Motor Calibration at ACL startup or
from the MAIN SCREEN, Calibrate/Motor… menu or click on [Motor
Calibrate] icon on the toolbar or press [Main Menu] and [8 Calibrate] on
the HHC or by modifying the weld procedure to perform a home pre-
weld calibration update prior to each weld.
This printout gives all pertinent data of the last Motor Calibration, Motor
and Tachometer Gain Errors, as well as the last date and time of the
Motor Calibration.
5.6 Option [6 Scaled (Procedure Print Enabled)] provides a printout of
the weld procedure with updated scaled parameters for both the Current
and Motor.
Choosing this option will toggle the “Print scaled values” check mark in
File/Print Setup… dialog on the MAIN SCREEN. This will convert the
scaled parameters to their scaled values without changing the original
values in memory. This can be accomplished even without performing a
weld, either in WELD or TEST Mode.
While at the Weld Screen, adjust either the Current or Motor by scaling
either up or down. Press [PRINT MENU] on the HHC, select this
option to “Enable”, and then select Option [2]. This will give a printout
of the scaled parameters, while maintaining the integrity of the original
parameters.
This is useful when needing the see how apparent scale changes will
affect either current or motor speed without actually doing it.
5.7 Option [7 (Strip) Chart] will print out the resultant strip chart from the
last weld.
Whether in TEST or WELD Mode this function will printout the entire
length of the printout from the screen. With every length of strip chart
on the screen being equal to eight seconds of the weld procedure, a
large diameter weld could easily use five screens or more. Printouts in
this option will give one sheet of tractor paper for every screen of weld
from the procedure.
This option is quite useful when tracking individual welds, as their
pulsing values for current and voltage are kept on hard copy. For
production purposes, especially on larger diameter welds, individual
printouts from this option would not be recommended since the speed of
the printer is limited.
