System Operating Modes - Cebora 208-10 Manual De Istrucciones

CEBORA S.p.A.
3.1

System Operating Modes.

With the "Robot" function active (led AT lit), the System offers 5 Operating Modes:
 Parameter Selection Internal mode, to enable the Control Panel to operate the Power Source
operating settings without disabling the Robot function;

Standard Program mode, for conventional synergic MIG welding (MIG Short);

Pulsed Arc Program mode, for pulsed synergic MIG welding (MIG Pulsed);

Manual mode, for manually controlled MIG welding (not synergic);

Job mode, for welding with spots preset by the user.
NOTE: The term "program" refers to a "MIG Short" or "MIG pulsed" synergic curve developed by
Cebora and saved in the firmware, in non-editable form, in a memory area called "program
number".
The term "Job" refers to a working point developed starting from a synergic curve, among those
provided by Cebora, with some parameters changed by the user and then saved in a memory area
called "Job number".
According to the type of Robot Interface used some Operating Mode can be not available:
 with Robot Interface RAI211, art. 211.00 all Operating Modes are qualified;
 with Robot Interface RAI217, art. 217.00 are qualified the Standard Program mode, Pulsed Arc
Program mode, Job mode and Parameter Selection Internal mode.
3.1.1 Parameter Selection Internal mode.
In Parameter Selection Internal mode, the Control Panel has full control of the Welding System
functions, while selections from the Robot Terminal are blocked.
NOTE: In Parameter Selection Internal mode it is possible to call up one of the saved programs and
change its parameters, to perform welding tests with the new values.
The welding command "Arc-On" is the only signal that must always be provided from the Robot
Terminal in all Operating Modes.
The Control Panel commands and signals are described in par. 4.
3.1.2 Standard Program mode.
Standard Program mode uses MIG welding programs with short-circuit arc transfer (MIG Short) in
which Cebora has combined each wire speed with the welding voltage to obtain a stable arc position. This
combination is called "synergy". This welding process is indicated by the lighting of led R2.
3.1.3 Pulsed Arc Program mode.
Pulsed Arc Program mode uses MIG welding programs with pulsed arc transfer (MIG Pulsed) in which
Cebora has combined each wire speed with the welding voltage to obtain a stable arc position. This
combination is called "synergy". This welding process is indicated by the lighting of led R1.
3.1.4 Manual mode.
In Manual mode it is possible to use MIG welding programs with short-circuit transfer (MIG Short), in
which the operator may change the so-called "synergy" combination set by Cebora, by adjusting the wire
speed and welding voltage.
The wire speed and welding voltage may be changed using the Robot Terminal analog adjustments Speed
Set point (or Welding Power) and Arc Length Correction (par. 5.3).
This welding process is indicated by the lighting of led R3.
