Overview
The user must enter the proper welding procedure
and process settings, including wire feed speed,

ance editor. If not, they will be notified when the
green check settings button is pressed by the incor-
rect weld setting screen.

Virtual Welding Overview
While a user is welding, observers can see the
Welderʼs view, LASER screen, or Instructorʼs view dis-
played on the monitor. The Welderʼs view shows the
helmets point of view. The LASER screen displays a
real time graph of the weld being made and gives a
score when the user selects “end pass”. The
Instructorʼs view allows another user to zoom in/out
and rotate the coupon to view the weldment from dif-
ferent angles in real time.

user has entered any settings outside the acceptable
range specified by the settings in the tolerance editor,
the incorrect weld setting screen will appear. The user
will then have to change any settings that are not cor-
rect. If the settings are correct and the green check
settings button is pressed, the selected environment
screen will appear on the monitor and in the helmetʼs
stereo visor. The user will then be able to start virtual
welding.
