Collapse Distance Graph: A graph of collapse distance plotted against time.
Collapse Mode: A mode of operation in which the weld is terminated when the part has been collapsed by
a user-specified distance.
Control Limits: An automatic weld energy compensation option. Normal weld parameters are
automatically increased, up to user-defined control limits, if specified minimum weld parameters
are not reached initially. Other control limit functions are Collapse Cutoff, Absolute Cutoff and
Peak Power Cutoff.
Counters: A record of the number of cycles run by category, for example, alarms.
Cycle Aborts: Settings that end the cycle immediately.
Digital Filter: A smoothing technique used to provide more meaningful graph data.
Downspeed: The rate of speed of the actuator from the home position to the part.
Energy Compensation: Extend the weld time up to 50% greater than the weld time setting or whenever the
minimum energy is reached, or shut off the weld before the expected (set) weld time if the maximum energy
value is reached.
Energy Mode: A mode of operation in which ultrasonics are terminated at a user-specified energy value.
External Amplitude Control: Enables you to access real-time amplitude control directly.
External Frequency Control: Enables you to access real-time frequency control directly.
Extra Cooling: When On, allows cooling air to start when upper limit switch is triggered and remains on
throughout the cycle. When Off, air is applied at ultrasonics application.
F Actual: Actual Frequency. The operating frequency of the ultrasonic stack, as measured dur-
ing a cycle.
F memory: Frequency as stored in Memory. The intended operating frequency value for an ultra-
sonic stack, stored in the memory of the power supply.
Form Feed: A form feed is inserted after print setup or print graph, or after the number of lines per page is
reached.
Freq Chg: Frequency Change. (Frequency at Start versus Frequency at End).
Freq End: Frequency at End. Frequency at the time ultrasonics was turned off.
Freq Max: Maximum Frequency. Highest frequency reached during weld cycle.
Freq Min: Minimum frequency. Lowest frequency reached during weld cycle.
Freq Start: Frequency at Start. Frequency at the time ultrasonics was turned on.
Frequency Offset: An offset factor applied to the ultrasonic frequency output set in the power
supply.
F Actual: The actual running frequency of the acoustic system.
F Memory: The frequency stored in the Power Supply memory.
General Alarm: An alarm that occurs due to a system fault and/or tripping a limit.
Ground Det. Cutoff: Immediately terminates the weld process, including the hold step, when a ground
detect has occurred.
Ground Detect Mode: In this mode of operation, ultrasonics are terminated after detection of a ground con-
dition between the horn and fixture or anvil.
Hold Force: The mechanical force on the part during the Hold portion of the weld cycle.
Hold Time: The duration of the hold step.
