Setting Time & Date
To change the Time & Date, which shows on the bottom of the screen, as well
as on all printouts and saved Weld Logs, use option [0 Time & Date].
When this optioned is selected, the clock at the bottom of the screen stops
counting, and at the end of this text line, all the essential settings appear:
MM DD YY HH MM SS
The cursor box can be moved from one set of settings to the next, either by
using the cursor keys or, pressing [ENTER] to accept the settings highlighted.
To change the settings, move the cursor box to the settings to be changed
and type in the changes. While all the settings are standard, the hour setting
(HH) uses 24-Hour Time.
Once the last set of changes is accepted, the date and time at the bottom of
the screen instantly change to reflect the modifications made.
Calibration/Verification Procedure
The ACL Calibration Software provides the user a means of calibration the
ACL welder parameters: Current (AMPS), Arc Voltage (VOLTS) and Rotor
Speed (RPM).
In the ACL welder Main Menu, menu selection [9 Calibrate Analog Input/
Output] will setup a built-in Weld Calibration Procedure ANA_CAL. This
procedure is part of the ACL program... it CANNOT be edited, modified
and/or erased. This procedure consists of 13 levels, each of which increases
in both AMP and RPM values: from 5.0 to 200.0 Amps and from 1.00 to
10.00 RPM.
Each level in this procedure is 300.0 seconds (5 minutes) long. This enables
the Calibration Technician more than enough time to measure, evaluate and
adjust ACTUAL and FEEDBACK AMP values and ACTUAL and FEEDBACK
RPM values.
The [NEXT LEVEL/GAS] button in orange, if pressed during the welding
or testing of the welding program, will jump from its present level to the
next level. Subsequent pressing of this button will continue to jump to
subsequent levels of the program. While changing from one level to the
next, both the AMP and RPM values increase to the value of that level.
Once the last level has been reached, if the [NEXT LEVEL/GAS] button is
pressed, the program will start over again at Level 1. This will cause the
program to Loop through procedure ANA_CAL again.
By using this procedure and the setups in the following sections, the user will
step through the ANA_CAL weld procedure and adjust the weld parameters
at each level of the procedure by pressing the indicated keys of the HHC.
All final data can be recorded neatly and completely on the calibration data
form provided.
CAUTION
Before beginning final calibration VERIFY THAT ALL
TEST EQUIPMENT USED FOR MEASURING HAS
A CURRENT UNBROKEN CALIBRATION SEAL.
Use of uncalibrated test equipment will invalidate the
calibration you are about to perform.
