SECTION 12 − TEACH POINTS
12-1. Teach Using 15 Points
The teach mode allows the user to create
custom pulse programs. The teach mode
selection for 15 teach points gives a more
defined curve for a specific range. At each
teach point, the user can adjust six
parameters to shape the pulse waveform of
the weld output. The six parameters are: IPM
(MPM), Apk, Vpk, Abk, PPS, and PWms.
Apk, Vpk, Abk, PPS, and PWms acting
together provide the energy necessary to
burn off welding wire at a set wire feed
speed. The graph above shows that as wire
feed speed increases, energy increases
(Apk, Vpk, Abk, PPS, and PWms acting syn-
ergically).
Under some conditions, the wire feeder lim-
its wire feed speed to maintain all pulse
parameters within the capability of the sys-
tem.
Vpk = Peak Voltage
Abk = Background Amperage
PPS = Pulses Per Second
PWms = Pulse Width (Milliseconds)
