Rotation Method
In this method, the weld duration is controlled by
completing a specified number of spin revolutions. The
button is used to enter the settings

the number of weld revolutions. The actual number
of weld rotations as reported on the

Distance Method
In this method, the weld duration is controlled by vertical
travel to a specified absolute or collapse distance. The

the travel distance, depending on the position of the
switch located on the bottom of the
Collapse / Absolute
screen. If the switch selection is
Figure 5-14, the travel distance is measured relative to
the trigger point. If the switch selection is
shown in Figure 5-15, the travel distance is measured
from the press topmost, or 0 position (also referred to
as the "home" position). The

the position to be defined by physically jogging the press
