Section 4 - Display and Controls
Opti–Touch Run Switches
Located on either side of the base are two optical Run switches. These are shown in Figure 4–3. These switches use Infrared (IR) sensors. They comply with OSHA and CE safety standards. Both switches are identical.
Each optical–touch switch has a small red LED which is dimly illuminated whenever the power is on, as shown in Figure 4–5. When the operator places their finger in the tray, the LED brightens and a second LED in the opposite corner of the tray illuminates to indicate the switch has been activated as shown in Figure 4–6. Both switches must be activated simultaneously to initiate a weld cycle.
Data I/O Connector
A connector for output data is provided on the rear of the welder above the power switch. This connector is a female type DB-9 as shown in Figure 4–7. It provides a computer connection to export part data, motor load and position profiles. A pinout of the Data I/O connector is provided in Appendix A. Detailed information on the data that can be obtained from the welder is given in Chapter 8.
