6.1 Setting Proportional Speed Instruction

The Miller Auto-Axcess welder combines the Miller Auto-Axcess welder
with a powerful and feature packed process monitoring tool called
"CenterPoint". "CenterPoint" is a PC application which is used to set-up
weld processes and limits. These welding sequences and limts are then
transferred to the welder where they reside during production (PC
application can be disconnected/removed). During production the
sequence and limits are monitored on a weld-to-weld and part-to-part
basis to ensure that production parts stay within the predefined limits and
sequence.
Setting Proportional Speed Instruction
With the AutoAxcess E Digital (EtherNetIP interface) the robot needs to
transmit its TCP travel speed to the Auto-Axcess so that the power source
can calculate the heat-input of the weld. This is accomplished by issuing a
command contained in a pre-existing job. The "R*-SET-PROPORTIONAL-
SPD" instruction set's an analog channel with a value pertaining the
robot's actual speed while executing a linear, circular, or spline move. The
scaling for the value is set by issuing a "ARATION" instruction. Each
robot's job sets a predefined analog output register which is then rescaled
in robot's CIO ladder program before being transmitted to the welder.
Below are the jobs and the instructions that set the proper scaling.
Only needs to be set once and should be called either in the start-up
portion of the "Master" job or within the main weld job. It does not need to
be shut-off of adjusted once it has been set.
The "V=50" is setting the velocity to voltage ratio. The value
of 50 is in cm/min. If another unit of travel speed is selected
NOTE
under the "SETUP" menu then the units may need to be
entered so that they correlate/equal 50cm/min.
