1.3.1 Safety instructions

Safety instructions call your attention specifically to danger potentials or
risks.
Where? We distinguish among the following places where safety instructions
may be required:
• Basic safety instructions:
They are related to general important matters and apply to the com
plete documentation.
These safety instructions are provided in Sections 2 and 3 of operat
ing instructions „PSI 6xxx: Weld timer with medium-frequency in
verter“ (doc. no. 1070080028; also refer to page 5).
• Preceding safety instructions:
They refer to topic-related matters and are provided at the beginning
of a chapter or at the beginning of a whole procedure.
• Integrated safety instructions:
They are related exactly to a separate procedure step and are
provided right before the relevant step within the procedure.
Structure? A safety instruction is always structured as follows:
• Warning sign (only in case of personal injury)
• Signal word to indicate the danger level
• Type and source of danger
• Consequences of failure to observe
• Actions for averting danger.
Table2: Example for the structure of a safety instruction

and Controls
Operation
Regulation mode
Possible settings:
0: Pulse width mode (PHA mode)
The welding heat within the welding circuit is influenced by changing
the pulse width. The pulse width only depends on the command
value present in this case.
2: Current regulation (KSR mode)
The programmed current (in kA) is determined by the command
value signal supplied (0 to 10 VDC). There is closed-loop control of
the actual current in the secondary circuit. The welding heat within
the welding circuit is influenced by the controller which changes the
pulse width as needed.
" Make sure that the setting matches the type of command value input
by the external weld timer!
For more information on the regulation modes, refer to the manual
"PSI 6xxx.000: Digital welding current source with medium-fre
quency inverter (1070 087 044)", keywords "Regulation modes".

and Controls
Operation
6.3 Parameterizing the setpoint input
The parameter settings for the command value input are not active
unless KSR regulation mode has been selected.
In order to optimally adjust the setpoint signal input of the digital welding
current source (at X2, input voltage range: 0 to 10VDC) to the setpoint
signal of an external controller, two pairs of values can be parameter
ized (voltage in mV, resulting welding current in kA) to specify a linear
characteristic.
The digital welding current source will then use this characteristic to
convert any active voltage to the corresponding command current.
" Proceed as follows to set the parameters for these two pairs of val
ues:
1. Press key "K" in the main menu while the cursor is at the input
prompt.
The system then waits for input of the first voltage value.
If you do not want to change the currently active characteristic, press

the "Enter" or "Esc" key without entering a value in subsequent steps
2, 3, 4 or 5.
After having queried all values, the system will report "Function abor
ted - please repeat" in this case without changing the existing char
acteristic.
2. Enter the first voltage value in mV.

The lower one of the two voltages must be input at this point. In the
example below, this would be 2000.
Acknowledge the value input with the "Enter" key.
The system then waits for input of the first current value.
3. Enter the first current value in kA.
The lower one of the two current values must be input at this point. In
the example below, this would be 60.
The system then waits for input of the second voltage value.
4. Enter the second voltage value in mV.
The higher one of the two voltages must be input at this point. In the
example below, this would be 10000.
The system then waits for input of the second current value.
5. Enter the second current value in kA.
The higher one of the two current values must be input at this point.
In the example below, this would be 120.
The system calculates the characteristics from the data input and
shows the resulting currents for the input voltages of 0 V and 5 V as con
trol output.
The main menu is built up again afterwards.
