APPENDIX E. COMMUNICATIONS
HF-2500A HIGH FREQUENCY WELD CONTROL
990-371 E-7
Command
COPY {from_schedule_number} {to_schedule_number}<crlf><lf>
Control State
Any
Description
Allows one schedule to be copied to another schedule number. From_schedule_number and
to_schedule_number may be any number from 0 to 99. Copying a schedule to itself has no
effect other than to invoke a schedule printout when "PRINT SCHEDULES/PROGRAMS" i
s
enabled.
Command
SCHEDULE<crlf><lf>
Control State
Any state except while welding.
Description
Requests the Power Supply to return the currently selected schedule number.
Command
SCHEDULE {READ | SET} <crlf>
[parameter_name value<crlf>]
<lf>
Control State
RUN state.
Description
Provides control over the Power Supply
schedule parameters. When used with the "READ"
keyword, all parameters pertaining to the currently loaded schedule are returned (see
SCHEDULE under Power Supply Originated Commands).
When the "SET" keyword is used,
the host may set (change) the value of one or more of the parameters pertaining to the currently
loaded schedule. The following is a list of valid literal substitutions for the parameter_name
and value variables:

NOTES:
squeeze_time and hold_time
are the parameter that defines the time for the given period in 1
msec. Valid range is from 0 to 999.
weld_time is the parameter that defines the time for the given period. . Each count of weld
_
time is equivalent to 0.01 for increments from 0.1 to 0.99 ms and increments of 0.1
ms for 1.0
to 9.9 ms and increments of 1.0 ms for 10.0 to 99.0 ms. (see table next page)
