Example<br />

ple in the RestoPath instruction.<br />

Error constant (ERRNO value) Description<br />

AW_START_ERR Start condition error; torch, gas or water supervision<br />

AW_IGNI_ERR Ignition error; arc supervision<br />

AW_WELD_ERR Weld error; arc supervision<br />

AW_EQIP_ERR Weld equipment error; voltage, current, water or gas<br />

supervision during welding<br />

AW_WIRE_ERR Wire stick error; wire stick supervision<br />

AW_STOP_ERR Welding interrupted using the stop process input<br />

The process supervision is determined as a part of the process equipment configuration.<br />

At the start of the process the robot checks that the following preconditions have been<br />

met:<br />

- stop_process<br />

- water_OK<br />

- gas_OK<br />

- torch_OK<br />

If, after the start command is given, no approved start profile is indicated on the digital<br />

input, arc_OK, within a predetermined time period, the process start will be interrupted.<br />

When the process is started, all supervision inputs selected are monitored continuously:<br />

- stop_process, water_OK, gas_OK, arc_OK, volt_OK, curr_OK, feed_OK<br />

The wirestick_err supervision is checked at the end of the weld.<br />

In this example, a weld is performed in which weld data and weave data are<br />

changed in the final part of the weld, which is illustrated in Figure 4. Note that an<br />

arc welding instruction must be used to change the direction of the path despite<br />

the fact that no weld data is changed.<br />
