Column Heading

Description

WFSLowLimit

This column simply displays the low end of the wire feed speed limit that was
set in the Weld Profile used to make the weld.

WFSHighLimit

This column simply displays the high end of the wire feed speed limit that
was set in the Weld Profile used to make the weld.

WFSIsLow

If the average wire feed speed during the weld fell below the low end of the
limit set for the Weld Profile that was used, the value in the WFSIsLow
column will be 1. Otherwise, the value will be 0.

WFSIsHigh

If the average wire feed speed during the weld was above the high end of the
limit set for the Weld Profile that was used, the value in the WFSIsHigh
column will be 1. Otherwise, the value will be 0.

WFSBaseUnits

The WFSBaseUnits column simply displays the speed units used in this weld
record. The unit selection is based on the global settings at the time of the
weld. The value of this column could be in/min or m/min.

True Energy™

TrueEnergy

This column displays the True Energy™ calculated for this weld using the
following equation:

௜ୀଵ

If the Welding Power Source that made the weld had older firmware and did
not support the True Energy™ calculation, this column displays a 0.

TEBaseUnits

The TEBaseUnits column simply displays the units for the True Energy™ value
in this weld record. The value of this column is typically kJ for “kilojoules”.

WeldScore™

WeldScore

The WeldScore column displays the average score for this weld. Every
quarter of a second, the Welding Power Source compares the performance of
the weld against the trained weld for the Weld Profile being used. When the
weld is complete, the power source averages those measurements together
for an average WeldScore™ value. For more details on WeldScore™, please
see page 1.3.

WeldScoreIsLow

If the average WeldScore™ calculated for the weld fell below the minimum
WeldScore™ set for the Weld Profile that was used, the value in the
WeldScoreIsLow column will be 1. Otherwise, the value will be 0.

WeldScoreLowLimit

This column simply displays the minimum WeldScore™ value that was set in
the Weld Profile used to make the weld.
