Chapter 10. Production Monitoring
Register
The Register section in Power Wave® Manager allows you to perform some of the necessary installation
procedures for the Production Monitoring™ and CheckPoint™ applications, as well as review the current
welds in the memory of the Welding Power Source. For more information on either of these applications,
refer to the Production Monitoring™ User Manual or the CheckPoint™ User Manual, whichever is relevant
for your power source model.
Saving an Installation Key File
Each individual power source has a unique installation key file. The system uses these files to register the
equipment in Production Monitoring™ or CheckPoint™. The steps below walk you through how to save the
installation key file for the Welding Power Source. Each Welding Power Source you add to Production
Monitoring™ or CheckPoint™ needs its own key file.
On the Registration tab of Power Wave® Manager (Figure 10.2), simply click the Save Production
Monitoring Installation Key button and save the file on your computer or network. Close Power Wave®
Manager when finished
STOP |
CheckPoint™ Setup
The options in the CheckPoint Setup section of this tab allow you to enable CheckPoint™ for the Welding
Power Source to which you are currently connected and to verify that connection. For more in-depth
details on setting up CheckPoint™, please refer to the CheckPoint™ User Manual.

It is recommended that you do not change the text in the
Power Source name field, especially after creating files from
the power source (e.g., training files or backups). Power
Wave® Manager uses the Power Source name to organize
and name weld training, backups, SnapShot files, weld logs,
calibration logs, and more. If you change a name, you will
have to find and load files manually.
