OPERATION

OVERLAY TYPES

Four types of overlays can be used with the Power Wave.

1.Process Overlays. These overlays are used to create, save and recall specific welding proce- dures by selecting and adjusting the various weld- ing settings that have been programmed into the Power Wave at the factory.

2.Weld From Memory Overlays. These overlays (also called Shop Overlays) provide a simple way for operators to recall and use any of the welding procedures that have been stored in the memory of the Power Wave.

3.Setup Overlays. These overlays provide specific machine setup information, such as operating lim- its for the welding procedures stored in memory.

4.Special Purpose Overlays. These are custom overlays for specific customer applications.

Detailed information on how to use currently available Power Wave overlays follows.
