OPT1

If the Setup push button is pressed, the unit

allows OPT1 to be disabled or enabled.

The upper display shows “OPT1”. Lower dis-

play shows “On” or “Off”. The Adjust Control

is used to select either “On” or “Off”.
“OPT1” is used by the Water Flow Shutdown

Option to stop the weld sequence if water flow

to a water cooled gun is interrupted. A closed

set of contacts between pins 1 and 2 of RC26

on Interface Board (PC20) will allow feeder to

operate normally. Opening the contacts will

stop the weld sequence and display “ERR” in

the upper display and “OPT1” in the lower dis-

play.

If the Setup push button is pressed, the unit

allows OPT2 to be disabled or enabled.

The upper display shows “OPT2”. Lower dis-

play shows “On” or “Off”. The Adjust Control

is used to select either “On” or “Off”.
“OPT2” is a second input that may be used

with an external device, such as a gas flow

switch, to end the weld sequence. The gas

flow switch may be used to stop the weld se-

quence if shielding gas flow to the gun is inter-

rupted. A closed set of contacts between pins

1 and 2 of RC24 on Interface Board (PC20)

will allow feeder to operate normally. Opening

the contacts will stop the weld sequence and

display “ERR” in the upper display and

“OPT2” in the lower display.
Display Hold
Display hold indicated by ”DISP” in the upper

display is set to “OFF” or “HOLD” in the lower

display. When ”HOLD” is selected, the unit will

hold the last weld information for 5 seconds

following weld termination. If any front panel

push button is pressed, or if the Adjust control

is activated, the display hold feature is termi-

nated.
Software Revision Level

If the Setup push button is pressed, the unit

displays the software version being used by

the interface PCB (PC20).

When the Setup button is pressed again, the

menu repeats.

Code
Upon leaving the auxiliary menu, the user is

asked if a password code indicated by

“CODE” in the top display should be activated.

By default the code is off, indicated by “OFF”

in the lower display. The user may enter a nu-

merical password between 0 and 999 by turn-

ing the Adjust control. When the user re−en-

ters the auxiliary menu, the password code

must be selected to gain access to the auxilia-

ry menu. A failed attempt return the user to the

weld screen and a counter is incremented. A

counter in the program display shows the

number of incorrect attempts. The user has

five attempts to enter the correct password

code before being locked out of the auxiliary

menu, indicated by “LOCK” in the lower dis-

play . The power may be cycled to continue

welding but the user will remained locked out

of the auxiliary menu. Pressing the Program,

Sequence, upper display, and Set−up push

buttons simultaneously, the counter can be re-

set in the weld screen. Resetting the counter

is indicated by “CODE” in the upper display

and “RSET” in the lower display. Pressing the

Program, Sequence, upper display, and Set−

up push buttons simultaneously again will al-
