Entering the Welder ID Code
The alphanumeric keypad is designed and works
like the keypad of a common mobile phone without
touch screen display. All characters found on a key
can be "browsed" by pressing that key repeatedly
Info
at short intervals. As soon as "browsing" generates
the desired character on the screen, wait a little
longer until you press the next key to use the dis-
played character. The first character always is the
number on the respective key, then the letters or
marks in the order on the key, i. e., for instance,
with the key "2 | a | b | c" the 1
"2," the 2
nd
"c." By default, lower-case letters appear on the
screen. To enter upper-case letters, hold down the
ñ key while selecting the appropriate letter by one
or several keypresses.
The welding unit can be configured to ask for the welder
identification code before the fitting code is entered. The
display screen then shows the message "Welder Code."
(Later this screen can be accessed by a quick access routine;
see Sect. 6.1.) The numeric code can be entered either by
reading it from a tag with the scanner or by using the
alphanumeric keypad. Whether the welder identification
code has to be entered and if so, when or how often, is
determined in the "Settings" sub-menu of the configura-
tion menu (see Sect. 10.1).
When the welder code is read from a bar code using the
scanner, an audible signal confirms this and the screen
shows the read code and switches to the next input display.
When the code is entered manually, it is saved by press-
ing the START/SET key. If the code entered is not correct,
a "Input Error" message appears; check the sequence of
numbers and correct as needed. If the code entered is cor-
rect, it is saved to system memory and inserted into the
welding reports to be printed.
Only an ISO standard-compliant welder identification code
is accepted by the unit. If the welder code feature is dis-
abled, the input screen for the welder code will not show.

Connecting the Fitting
Connect the connection terminals to the fitting and check
for proper contact. Use terminal adapters if needed. The
contact surfaces of the cable connection terminals or adapt-
ers and the fitting have to be clean. Dirty terminals may
lead to improper welding and also to overheated and fused
