Table. 3 Welding Preparation Procedure
Set a wire suitable to the welding method. Make sure
that the diameter of the roller of wire feeder matches
the wire diameter.
Confirm that a contact tip suitable to the diameter of
the wire is installed on the torch.
Confirm that connections are correct, then turn ON the
switch of the switch gear of the welding source.
Turn ON the power switch. The power indicator lamp
lights and the built-in cooling fan starts. The fan stops
after fifteen minutes unless the arc starts. The fan
automatically restarts when the arc starts.
The feeding motor type can be set by the parameter
C09.
0: Print servomotor (default setting)
1: Minertia servomotor for servo torch
2: 4-roller servomotor (YWE-WF340MELC)
Incorrect setting of the feeding motor precludes proper
welding because the wire cannot be fed at wire feed-
ing speed as directed by the set value.
When the parameter was changed, follow the instruc-
tions as follows:
1. Keep on pressing the "Record" button for
more than three seconds to save changes.
Do not turn OFF the welding source while
saving.
2. Confirm that the 7-segment LED indicators
light again, then turn OFF the welding source
once and ON again.
For details, refer to " 4.2.8 Selecting Feeding Motor ".
Set the welding source voltage control: either "Syner-
gic (auto adjustment)" or "Independent (individual)".
When "Synergic" is set, the LED indicator lamp above
"Auto Adjustment/Individual" button will light up.
"Synergic (auto adjustment)" is set before shipping.
Set the welding source condition files (including "Syn-
ergic (auto adjustment)" or "Independent (individual)").
For details, refer to " 16 Welding Source Condition
File of the Robot Controller ".
