value.
• Setup Checking: If you create a setup with conflicts the Power Supply notifies you of the specific con-
flict.
• Short Cut to Modify Main Parameters: From the Run Screen you can jump to a screen to make mod-
ifications to your main parameters. This simplifies minor adjustments.
• Start-up Diagnostics: At start-up, the controls test the major system components.
• System Information Screen: This is a screen that will give you information about your welding system.
Refer to this screen when contacting Branson for service and support.
• Test Diagnostics: In Test mode you can view the ultrasonic system results using digital readouts and
bar graphs.
• Timed Seek: When turned ON, will do a Seek once every minute to update horn resonant frequency to
memory. This is especially useful when the welding process affects the actual temperature of the horn,
causing a resonant frequency shift.
• User-Nameable Presets: You can refer to each preset by name or part number making identification of
your presets simple.
• Vacuum Fluorescent Display: For good visibility in factory lighting conditions.
• View Weld Results: From the Run Screen you can view any of the information available from the last
completed cycle.
• Weld Modes: Time, Energy, Peak Power, and Ground Detect. The 2000X welder offers multiple weld
modes so that you can choose the mode of control that best meets your specific application need.
2.4.2 The Power Supply
The Power Supply consists of an ultrasonic Power Supply module and a system controller. The ultrasonic
Power Supply module converts conventional 50/60 Hz line current to 15 kHz, 20 kHz, 30kHz or 40 kHz elec-
trical energy. The system controller controls the welding system.
The power supply is configured with either an analog or digital UPS. The analog supply has one preset
which calls up the factory default setting.
The digital supply has a library of up to 18 locked presets which are accessible for various process param-
eter modifications that are unique to the power supply itself. These modifications can be named to reflect
specific applications, and are loaded into memory prior to shipment from the Branson Factory. The param-
eters of the individual presets can be modified by a Branson representative. Initially, one preset is set to fac-
tory default. They are accessed via an RS232 link to the system controller.
2.4.3 The Actuator
The Actuator is an electro-pneumatic system that contains the Ultrasonic Stack (Converter/Booster/Horn)
that delivers the force and ultrasonic energy to the workpiece. The pneumatics are enclosed in the upper
half of the actuator.
