4.1.1 Setting the Default Configuration of the Machine
In the sub-menus of the Configuration Menu, at "Settings," the pa-
rameters related to the welding unit itself and its operation can be
set. At "Recording," the traceability data that have to or need not be
recorded and written into the reports can be enabled or disabled. The
desired sub-menu is selected using the ñ and ò arrow keys. Then to
access that sub-menu, press the MENU key.
In both parts of the configuration menu, use the ñ and ò arrow keys
to select the desired set-up option. Use the ð arrow key to toggle
between "on" and "off" for that set-up option.
If a "M" is shown next to a set-up option, this indicates that a sub-
menu is accessible here by pressing the MENU key.
On both menu levels (Configuration Menu and its respective
sub-menus), press the START/SET key to save the settings to
memory or press the STOP/RESET key to return to the previ-
Important
ous menu level without saving possible changes.
4.1.2 Understanding the "Settings" Sub-menu
"Check Code Expiry on" means that the welder identification code has
to be current and not expired (default period of validity 2 years
from code issuance), or the welding operation cannot be started,
"off," that the validity of the code is not checked at all.
"Memory Control on" means that when the system memory is full of
reports, the unit will be blocked until the reports are printed or
downloaded, "off," that it works but that the oldest report will
be overwritten.
"Automode on" means that in butt-welding operations the Automode
feature for the easy management of the welding process (see
Sect. 4.3.4) can be used, "off," that the feature is not available.
"Manual Input on" means that the manual input of welding param-
eters or computed parameters is possible, "off," that the manual
input is not allowed.
"Check Ambient Temperature on" means that the outside tempera-
ture is measured before welding, "off," that it not; if the tempera-
ture is below 0°C (32°F), welding should be performed only after
taking appropriate precautions (heating, tent, for instance).
"Welder Code Options – M – " means that by pressing the MENU
key, the user can access a sub-menu that allows determining
when the welder code, if it is enabled at "Recording," has to be
entered:always, i. e. before evey single welding operation, only
before the first welding operation after switching the unit on or
only after the first welding operation of a new day/date.
