AMPERAGE
1. The footpedal location matches the real life movement of the
amperage controller. See Figure 51.
2. Move the footpedal so the location falls within the green ideal
zone. See Figure 51.
3. On Aluminum weld the ideal amperage range changes the longer
you are welding to compensate for heating of the aluminum part.
See Figure 51.

POSTFLOW
1. Only appears after breaking the arc. See Figure 52.
2. Maintain correct aim and arc length to keep both cues green. See
Figure 52.
3. Wait for the second hand to do a full cycle back to the 12 o'clock
position. See Figure 52.
4. If Arc length or Aim goes out of bounds then the post flow is failed.
See Figure 52.

NEW COUPON
Selecting the blue new coupon menu icon replaces the current
coupon with an unwelded coupon. Note that this is a quick way
to start over on the same configuration and process but that it will
remove all passes from the coupon and the graphs on the LASER
screen. Selecting "New Coupon" will also save the previous weld to a
USB stick (if attached).
WHITE SELECT ARROWS (BUTTON ICON)
Touching the white select arrows allow the user to rotate through the
monitors' LASER screen, instructor's view and welder's view.
WELDER'S VIEW SCREEN
This screen shows the virtual view as seen by the user wearing the
headset.
INSTRUCTOR'S VIEW SCREEN
This screen shows the coupon and virtual weld in real time. See
Figure 53. An observer can rotate, pan and/or zoom in or out on the
coupon. This view also shows the device being used.
NOTE: Changing views on the monitor does not change the user's
view in the headset.
