    This guide will help you to better understand the automation features available to you with the introduction of the version 9.x software to the Branson product line. The major feature of this software/firmware change is the user-configurable I/O. In the event you require additional assistance or information, please contact our Product Support depart- ment or your local Branson representative.

    After the point of contact, force will develop against the workpiece. When the 2000 Series controls sense the trigger force set point the welder advances to the weld on state. Ultrasonics will start, and the start switches may now be released. We recommend monitoring the PB Release signal as the event to flag the release of the start signal.

Still add the same converter cooling values (0.034) as in the prior example.

    This refers to the feature set of the device that delivers the horn to the workpiece. It may be just a convertor/ horn “stack”, or a Branson furnished basic actuator, or a Branson furnished actuator with distance and force sensors.
  • Page 51 Automation Guide Glossary V9.xx This is a cycle when the welder would normally be in full control (as in a standard cycle) BUT and external device is performing an operation that interrupts the cycle. A typical example would be to perform a “test” on the workpiece to determine its merit before the weld (ultrasonics) cycle begins.
  • Page 52 Glossary V9.xx Missing Part A user output signal that indicates trigger occurred above the minimum or below the maximum user-set allowable distance settings. Modified Alarm A user output signal that indicates a user-set compensating condition occurred, (Only energy at this time). Multi head Multi head uses more than 1 horn, each horn has its own respective ultrasonic power supply.
  • Page 53 Automation Guide Glossary V9.xx Switching preset memories This is when different weld setups are stored in memory. They can be recalled from memory by the user from the front panel, or remotely from the User I/O input pins if properly selected settings are chosen in the System Configuration menu.
