Control Cable

The 24 MS-type pin connector attaches to the mating receptacle on the rear
panel of the orbital welding power-supply. All of the Control, Feedback and
Welding functions of the weldhead transfer through this connector.

Operator Controls

The operator controls are on the weldhead handle. The controls include the
following:

START/STOP

The [START/STOP] button first starts
the program. If pressed a second
time, it will stop the program.

NEXT LEVEL/GAS
TEST

If the [NEXT LEVEL/GAS] button is
pressed during the welding or testing
of the welding program, the program
wil jump from its current program level
to the next program level. Subsequent
pressing of this button will continue to
jump to the next levels of the program.

If pressed any other time, the gas
function is enabled: if pressed once,

the gas will ‘flow’ (assuming the inert
gas supply and the wledhead gas
lines are connected), if pressed again

the ‘flow’ of gas will stop.

MOTOR JOG

The [MOTOR JOG] button is used to
jog the rotor either prior to starting the
program for setup, or after running the
program.

FINAL SLOPE/
HOME

If the [FINAL SLOPE/HOME] button is
pressed during the welding or test-
ing of the welding program, the unit

will skip all level and initiate the final
slope. If pressed at any time, the rotor

will move (jog) to its home position at
the high calibration speed value. If the
rotor is already at home position, the
rotor will then backup several de-
grees, then forward again to home.

Gas Hose

The gas connector is a double-end shut-off valve type that prevents flow or
leakage out of either the unit or the gas hose if the connection is broken.

The gas hose connector from the weldhead plugs into the “GAS OUT”
receptacle.

Water Hoses

The water connectors are a quick-release type that prevent

flow or leakage

out of either the CobraCooler™ or the water hose if the connection is broken.

The water hose connectors from the weldhead plug into the “WATER IN” &
“WATER OUT” receptacles on the rear panel of the CobraCooler™.
