Y CAUTION: INCORRECT INPUT POWER can damage this welding power source. This welding power
source requires a CONTINUOUS supply of 50/60 Hz (+10%) power at +10% of rated input voltage. Phase
to ground voltage shall not exceed +10% of rated input voltage. Do not use a generator with automatic
idle device (that idles engine when no load is sensed) to supply input power to this welding power
source.
NOTE Actual input voltage should not exceed 10% of indicated required input voltage. If
actual input voltage is outside of this range, output may not be available.

The touch sensor feature allows the robot to locate a weldment using the wire feed system and welding power source.
The weld output terminals provide a path for touch sensor voltage when this feature is turned on at the peripheral
receptacle. Turning on touch sensor causes a dc voltage to be present on the welding wire. When welding wire
touches the weldment, the voltage sensing circuit closes, and a +24 volts dc output signal is sent to the robot control
indicating weldment detection. Touch sensor dc voltage on the welding wire is 80 volts DC. As soon as touch sensor
turns on, WIRE LIVE appears on the front panel display.
NOTE Remote Program Select is factory set to On. WaveWriter or File Management
software is required to turn this function Off.
When Remote Program Select is On, a remote device or robot pendant may be used to select programs. When Off,
program selection must be done from the welding power source front panel.
NOTE When Remote Program Select is On, program selection will be determined by
remote input once a weld is initiated. Prior to welding, program selection can be
done in a normal manner from the welding power source front control panel.

Use robot pendant or other method to enter two weld schedules into the
robot. Maintain schedule 1 for at least 10 to 20 seconds minimum before
moving on to schedule 2. Maintain schedule 2 for 10 to 20 seconds
before ending the simulated weld. Schedule data is shown below:

NOTE It is critical to make certain that NO start power, start conditions, run-in, or crater
parameters of any kind are present in the robot program. The welding power
source is looking for 2 distinct welding conditions. If there is a start power
condition, the welding power source will equate this as the first condition and fail to
execute Auto-Cal correctly. If there is a crater fill condition, the welding power
source will equate this as the second condition and fail to execute Auto-Cal
correctly.
