Freq End
The frequency at the end of the ultrasonic portion of the
welding cycle (when ultrasonics are terminated).
F Actual The actual running frequency of the acoustic system.
F Memory The frequency stored in the Power Supply memory.
Frequency Offset
An offset factor applied to the ultrasonics frequency
stored in the Power Supply.
General Alarm
An alarm that occurs due to system fault and/or tripping
a limit.
Ground Det. Cutoff
Ground Detect Cutoff. Immediately terminates the weld
process, including the hold step, when a ground detect
has occurred.
Gnd Det. Mode
Ground Detect Mode, available in all models of 2000X
power supplies. In this mode of operation, ultrasonics are
terminated after detection of a ground condition between
the horn and fixture or anvil.
Hold Force The force on the part during the hold portion of the cycle.
Hold Time The duration of the hold step.
Horn Down
A mode in which ultrasonics are locked out and the user
can advance the Actuator for setup and alignment.
Linear Encoder
Provides carriage (horn) distance measurement during
the Actuator cycle.
Lines per Page
When using an optional Printer, the number of welds per
printed page.
Load Cell
Provides force measurement for accurate ultrasonic
triggering and graphing of force.
Main Menu The list of features available in the software.
Max Energy
Maximum Energy. The maximum user-specified energy
that produces a part without an alarm.
Min Energy
Minimum Energy. The minimum user-specified energy
that produces a part without an alarm.
Minus Limit
The user-defined lower limit, or lower extreme of an
acceptable range for a given parameter. See Control
Limits in the Power Supply manual.
Missing Part
A min/max distance where trigger is expected. Returns
the Actuator to the home position and displays an alarm
indicating that the cycle was aborted because no part was
present.
Parameter Range Valid range of parameters accepted for a particular setup.
Parameter Step
Ability to dynamically change amplitude during the weld
cycle.
