Unlocking code
Each user profile is protected by a personal, four-digit code. The default code will be 0000 if not changed. After failing to
correctly enter your personal code three times, the interface will be blocked and you will be asked for an unlock code.
This code is made up of six digits and cannot be changed. It is: 314159.
Using the machine's Tracking interface
This welding management interface allows you to track/record every step of the welding operation, bead by bead, during
any industrial operation. This quality-driven approach ensures high post-production welding quality through analysis,
evaluation, reporting and documentation of the recorded welding settings. This feature allows for the accurate and fast
collection and storage of data required under EN ISO 3834. This data can be recovered and exported to a USB stick.

Creating a tracking system
• Personalise the site's name by pressing push button n°3.
• Sampling interval :
- Hold : No recording of current/voltage values (average along the wire) during welding.
- 250 ms, 500 ms, etc. : Recording of the current/voltage values (average along the wire) every «X» milliseconds or
seconds during welding.
• Options - OFF : simple tracking
• Options - ON : full tracking
Pass counter (ON/OFF)
Weld counter (ON/OFF)
Temperature (ON/OFF) : Temperature of the part to be welded at the beginning of the weld bead.
Length (ON/OFF) : Length of the wire (units of measurement are displayed according to the choices made in
Settings/Units of Measurement).
Variable(s): allows you to add additional personalised information (weight, notes, wire speed, etc.).
Press
to start tracking.
Tracking display
At the top left of the screen, the job name and the bead number are displayed (the bead number goes up automati-
cally and cannot be changed).
Identification - Options ON
At the end of each bead, an identification window appears: Pass N°, Weld N°, Part temperature and/or Bead length.
Validation
Confirmation can be done on the HMI or by pressing the torch's trigger.
Stop -
Stop tracking
To stop tracking during a welding process, the user must return to the Tracking block and select «Stop».
Export
The recovery of this information is done by exporting the data to a USB stick.
The CSV data can be processed with a spreadsheet program (Microsoft Excel®, Calc OpenOffice®, etc).
The file name is linked to the machine name and serial number.
2- Start -
Tracking management
The left-hand side of the screen lists previously created work sites.
The user has the possibility to sort these worksites by name or by date by quickly pressing button n°2.
Holding down this button will delete the active job or all jobs.
The right-hand side of the screen shows the details of each of the previously created jobs with the following infor-
mation: sampling frequency, number of recorded welds, total welding time, welding energy supplied, setup of each
weld (process, timestamp, welding time and welding U-I).
