Reverse Inching; Cold Wire On; Tigspeed On; Spot Welding On - EWM RINTX12 STANDARD Operating Instructions Manual

With Tetrix / forceTig systems without cold wire the signal has no function. With cold wire sys-
tems, cold wire operation can be controlled solely with this signal provided that the system uses a
certain software version or later. > see 5.5.10 chapter

5.5.11 Reverse inching

The welding wire is reversely inched according to the inching mode selected using input X10/9. The same
time period applies for selecting the ramp function as for the inching process.

tive
With Tetrix / forceTig systems without cold wire, the signal has no function.

5.5.12 Cold wire on

In Tetrix / forceTig systems with cold wire equipment, the cold wire is started with the X10/11 input.
X10/11
Signal not
active
Signal ac-
tive
The signal cannot be actuated during the welding process. The effect of the signal depends on the
machine equipment. In special cases, this signal has no function.

5.5.13 tigSpeed on

With Tetrix / forceTig systems with tigSpeed equipment, input X5/8 starts the tigSpeed oscillation.

5.5.14 Spot welding on

In Phoenix/alpha Q systems this signal enables a spot welding mode to be used in the special non-
latched operating mode. The spot time is defined by the main program duration in the program sequence.

5.5.15 spotArc on

The spot time for spotArc is specified on a control panel.
In Tetrix XQ systems, this signal overrides the default operating mode and switches the operating mode
spotArc.

Signal not ac-
tive
Signal active

5.5.16 Automated pulsing on

In Tetrix XQ systems, this signal activates the automated pulsing function as an additional pulse method
and thus overrides the current default by the pulse signals.
