Section 5 - Touch Screen Menus

The bottom right corner of the

POST-WELD

screen

contains controls for setting machine behavior when
an out-of-limit condition occurs. The

Latch on Failure

button specifies if the out-of-limit condition will require
an acknowledgement from the user before allowing the
next cycle to start. This acknowledgement request is
indicated by a button on the bottom of the

RUN

screen

as shown in Figure 5-28.
The

Suspect / Bad (Abort)

button in the right lower

corner of the screen controls two aspects of machine
function. The first function is to determine if a weld cycle
will be aborted if the process parameter falls outside
the limits. If

Suspect

is selected, the machine cycle

will complete regardless of the process limit results. If

Bad (Abort)

is chosen, the machine cycle will continue

if any process parameter falls below the Lower limit,
or be terminated if it exceeds the Upper limit for the
following parameters:

Weld Time (s)

Weld Rotations

Peak RPM

Peak Torque (% of max.)

Peak Thrust (% of max.)

Cycle Time (s)

In the case of cycle termination, the machine will report
an error message on the

RUN

screen listing the parameter

for which the limit was exceeded. The second function
is to set the character displayed in the

Limits

field on the

RUN

screen. If the switch is set to

Suspect

, the

Limits

field will display

S

if the process was outside the limits.

If it is set to

Bad (Abort)

, the

Limits

field will display

B

if the process parameter was lower than the Lower

limit, and

E

if the process parameter was higher than

the Upper limit.
