nozzle cleaning. The user is also recommended to check how often such func-
tions as retr  y, restart, and automatic anti-stick have been used and adjust the
operating environment and work conditions accordingl y. The usage of the above-mentioned functions can be controlled or confirmed on
the arc welding diagnostic displa    y. For example, tip replacement is initially set at
180 minutes. When the welding time reaches 180 minutes, an external output
signal is output. The operator can then replace the tip or adjust as necessar y. 1)    WORK CONT When the manipulator is restarted after it stops in the middle of a work section,
the manipulator either performs welding over the remaining part of the section
or moves without performing welding. 2)    TIP REPLACEMEN  T, NOZZLE CLEANING In the “SETTING” fields, specify the optimum timings for tip replacement and
nozzle cleaning. The initial values are 180 minutes for tip replacement; 30
minutes for nozzle cleaning. The “ACCUM.” fields display an accumulated
service duration. 3)    RETRY, RES TART, ANTI-STICK In each of the “SETTING” fields, specify a reference value for the number of
times each function is used. As in the previous case, 10 is specified for each
function. Each of the “ACCUM.” fields displays the accumulated count, show-
ing how many times the function has been used. Note! RETRY, RESTART, and ANTI-STICK counts:
These counts are different from the maximum repetition counts specified in the
arc auxiliary condition file. These counts show how many times these functions
have actually been used. In this example, an external
output signal(specific) is output
when the accumlated welding
time reaches 180 minutes.
