5 Operation
5.1 Set-Up Overview
VOLTAGE: In the welding modes that require an Arc Length value (Pulse,
Accupulse, . . .) the Voltage parameter is set to 1/2 the required setting.
That is:
Arc Length = 2 X Voltage Setting
Example:
Arc Length value required is 50
In the Arc Start File (ASF) and/or Arc End File (AEF) set
Voltage to 25.0
Example:
Arc Length value required is 47
In the Arc Start File (ASF) and/or Arc End File (AEF) set
Voltage to 23.5
In MIG mode, the voltage value is the actual reference value
desired.
Example:
Voltage required is 21.8 volts
In the Arc Start File (ASF) and/or Arc End File (AEF) set
Voltage to 21.8
CURRENT: The Current setting is actually Wire Feed Speed in inches per
minute. A setting of 300 will give 300 ipm of wire.
BURN BACK: The Miller Auto-Axcess DI has a Sharp Start routine to
reduce wire ball size. Do not set high voltage or low wire feed speed
setting in the Arc End files, this can create adverse results.
RETRY: If RETRY is used (ON), set the Voltage and Current in the Arc
Auxiliary Condition File to the same values as in the Arc Start Files.
CURRENT and VOLTAGE: Arc End Files are used if a crater fill is required
at the end of the weld sequence. If no crater fill is required, a simple
ARCOF command can be used. If it is desired to use the Arc End files, but
no crater fill is needed, set the CURRENT and VOLTAGE to the same
values as used in the corresponding Arc Start File, and set the ROBOT
PAUSE TIME to 0.0 sec.
BURN BACK: The Miller Auto-Axcess DI has a Sharp Start routine to
reduce wire ball size. Do not set high voltage or low wire feed speed
settings in the Arc End files, this can create adverse results.
ANTI-STICK: The Miller Auto-Axcess DI has a built-in anti-stick feature, so
in general this function is not needed and should be set to OFF.
