5.Optional Windows The optional window buttons open additional windows used during wave shaping. Optional windows in the pulse Waveform Editor include Start, Adapt, Short, End, and About. Details about the use of most optional windows is covered in the applicable appendix (i.e. Appendix A for Pulse Wave Shaping). We use the About window shown in Figure 3-3 to record descriptive weld application data for custom wave shape files. This information is stored with the program in the computer and in the Power Wave.

6.Wave Designer Status Bar This status bar provides a scrolled listing of recent program events, error conditions, etc. Use the arrow keys ƒ to scroll through the listings. The status bar includes three system status indicators: on line/off line, standby/welding, and adaptive/non-adapt. The adaptive indicator is also a button that toggles between the adaptive and non-adaptive mode.

7.Volts/Amps Display The Volts/Amps display, Figure 3-4, provides real time, oscilloscope type displays of the voltage and amperage outputs from the connected power source. Smaller display monitors (640 x 480 pixels or less) will not show the volts/amps display.
