  • Page 10: Description Of Operation

    DESCRIPTION OF OPERATION 1 MMC panel The MMC panel consists of a control panel and a welding data board. The power source, the wire feed unit and control panel each have their own microprocessor for control. The control panel is the central unit in the system: in addition to setting and controlling welding data, it also has overall control of the entire system.

    Valid from serial no. 451- xxx- xxxx Voltage monitoring If the +60 V supply drops below 42 V or exceeds 78 V, the MMC panel displays fault code 9. This fault does not disable any functions. The +24 V is monitored by IC12 and potential divider R129, R130, R180. If the voltage drops to 18 V or less, IC12 generates a warning signal to the processor, which responds by stopping the wire feed and then all communication on the bus.

    SERVICE INSTRUCTIONS WARNING ! STATIC ELECTRICITY can damage circuit boards and electronic components. Observe precautions for handling electrostatic- - sensitive devices. Use proper static- -proof bags and boxes. What is ESD? A sudden transfer or discharge of static electricity from one object to another. ESD stands for Electrostatic Discharge.
  • Page 32: Service Aid

    The software update is made from a PC, it has to be managed by a trained serviceman. For this a computer program called Esat, ESAB software administration tool, is needed. The PC is connected to the welding equipment by a cable connector and a CAN reader. From the Esat it is possible to update the software in power source, wire feeder and control panel.
