Stick control If welding is not finished properly, the wire can be welded to the workpiece. The power
source detects the stuck wire and extinguishes the “Robot ready“ signal. Welding contin-
ues once the welded wire is released.
Robot access The “Robot access“ signal shows whether internal or external parameter setting is select-
ed.
IMPORTANT!
“Robot access“ is only available when connected to the RCU5000i remote control
unit.
Welding wire
available
If no welding wire is detected by the wire-end sensor, the “wire available“ signal is shown
as low.
IMPORTANT!
“Welding wire available“ has no significance unless connected to a wire-end sen-
sor.
If no wire-end sensor is installed, the “welding wire available“ signal is shown as high.
Short circuit time-
out
This signal shows that the short circuit time has been exceeded (greater than 78 ms).
Data documenta-
tion ready
This signal shows that data documentation is operational via RCU receiver.
Pulse high The “Pulse high“ signal is for pulse synchronisation (robot)
Welding voltage
(real value)
During welding, transmits the welding voltage measured (between 0 - 100 V). The value
on the field bus is between 0 - 65535. In idle, the HOLD value becomes the welding voltage
command value immediately after welding.
Welding current
(real value)
During welding, transmits the welding current measured (between 0 - 1000 A). The value
on the field bus is between 0 - 65535. In idle, the HOLD value becomes the welding current
command value immediately after welding.
Motor current (re-
al value)
During welding, transmits the motor current measured (between 0-5 A). The value on the
field bus is between 0 - 255.
