Users of ESAB equipment have the ultimate responsibility for ensuring that anyone who works on or

near the equipment observes all the relevant safety precautions. Safety precautions must meet the

requirements that apply to this type of equipment. The following recommendations should be ob

served in addition to the standard regulations that apply to the workplace.

All work must be carried out by trained personnel well-acquainted with the operation of the equip

ment. Incorrect operation of the equipment may lead to hazardous situations which can result in in

jury to the operator and damage to the equipment.

1. Anyone who uses the equipment must be familiar with:

S its operation

S location of emergency stops

S its function

S relevant safety precautions

S welding and cutting

2. The operator must ensure that:

S no unauthorised person is stationed within the working area of the equipment when it is

started up.

S no-one is unprotected when the arc is struck

3. The workplace must:

S be suitable for the purpose

S be free from drafts

4. Personal safety equipment

S Always wear recommended personal safety equipment, such as safety glasses, flame-proof

clothing, safety gloves.

S Do not wear loose-fitting items, such as scarves, bracelets, rings, etc., which could become

trapped or cause burns.

5. General precautions

S Make sure the return cable is connected securely.

S Work on high voltage equipment may only be carried out by a qualified electrician.

S Appropriate fire extinquishing equipment must be clearly marked and close at hand.

S Lubrication and maintenance must not be carried out on the equipment during operation.

CAUTION

Class A equipment is not intended for use in residential locations where

the electrical power is provided by the public low-voltage supply system.

There may be potential difficulties in ensuring electromagnetic

compatibility of class A equipment in those locations, due to conducted

as well as radiated disturbances.

7 ORDERING SPARE PARTS

Aristo

R

Retrofit I/O is designed and tested in accordance with the international and Eu

ropean standards 60974- 1 and 60974- 10. It is the obligation of the service unit which

has carried out the service or repair work to make sure that the product still conforms

to the said standard.

Spare parts may be ordered through your nearest ESAB dealer, see the last page of

this publication.

* * *

NOTE! 8. FUNCTION DESCRIPTION OF I/O SIGNALS is only in English and is

primarily meant for the integrator and installation of the Interface box on page 11.

FUNCTION DESCRIPTION OF I/O SIGNALS

The Retrofit I/O is the interface between the welding robot and the welding

equipment. The Retrofit I/O converts the robot's I/O signals to field bus signals to the

welding equipment. The Retrofit I/O also converts the field bus signals from the

welding equipment to I/O signals to the welding robot.

Configuration of the I/O--version (U8 I/O)

With the service function 38 in the U8 I/O unit you can activate or deactivate the

different blocks of I/O's.

For more information, please read the Service manual for U8.

Input data I/O signal from control equipment (robot) to the welding

equipment

Welding start

The signal starts the welding process but before the welding process starts the quick

stop and stop signals are checked to ensure that they are not active.

Stop

The signal shuts off the robot and the welding process.

Quick stop

The signal stops the equipment if it is active in the welding process, it carries out a

normal stop without crater filling. The function is used when a quick stop is required

but it gives a normal burnback time to prevent the wire sticking in the weld pool. The

signal also blocks the start command.

Wire inching

Used when one wants to feed wire without welding voltage.

The signal starts the wire feed without the welding voltage being activated. The wire

feed unit feeds wire at the set speed. If the signal is active during the welding

process, the command is ignored.

If both welding and wire inching are activated at the same time the equipment will

ignore the wire inching command and start the welding process.

Gas flushing

Gas flushing is used when measuring the gas flow or to flush any air or moisture

from the gas hoses before welding starts. Gas flushing is carried out without voltage

or wire feed occurring.

Welding start always activates the gas valve even if the manual gas command is

given. In the same way the gas valve for gas post flow is always closed if it is not

closed already.

Gas flushing operates parallel to the functions gas pre-flow and gas post-flow. To

control the welding gas from the robot, set the gas pre-flow to minimum and the gas

post-flow to maximum, and then control the welding gas using the gas flushing

functions.

- 12 -

br04func

Spatter cleaning

The signal controls the valve for air cleaning welding spatter.

Touch Sense Response

This command is used by the robot to sense where the wire is.

When the function is active, the power source will give out current limited idle voltage

to see if the wire is in contact with the workpiece. On contact, the output signal

"Touch Sense Response" is activated.

Active analog

The signal is used to switch between the analog and digital remote modes.

Analogue active allows analog control of the welding parameters, voltage, arc

voltage and the wire feed speed.

NOTE! On Retrofit I/O the function is always activated.

If the welding method SuperPulse is to be used, the "analog active" signal must be

deactivated.

When the analogue method is activated the power source will not use the preset

values for wire feed speed and voltage when new welding data is selected. When

"analog active" is activated the robot controls arc voltage and wire feed speed using

analog signals.

With the analog active signal deactivated, welding data is exchanged with preset

welding data such as voltage, wire feed speed to fixed set welding parameters. The

pre-programmed welding data (schedules) is requested from the U8 I/O welding data

memory.

Welding data

With the signals memory 1, 2, 4, 8, one accesses saved welding data (schedules) in

U8 I/O.

The binary coded combinations of these signals can be used to recall the memories

1--15 in the Aristo U8 I/O memory bank.

A complete set of welding data includes all settings that can be made in U8 I/O, see

the instruction manual for U8.

Voltage reference

This signal is used by the robot for analog control of the welding voltage if analog

active is selected. It stretches from 0--10V and corresponds to welding voltage

socket as follows.

0V reference gives a deviation on the selected arc voltage of -10V

10V reference gives a deviation on the selected arc voltage of +10V

If the machine is in non-synergy mode, the equipment will use the appreciated value.

0V reference gives arc voltage 8V

10V reference gives arc voltage 60V

- 13 -

br04func

Wire feed speed reference signal

The signal is used by the robot to make analog adjustments to the wire feed speed.

The internal solution is 0.1 m/min.

Input voltage

0 V: Mini. value for wire feed (normally 0.8 m/min) (RoboFeed)

10 V: Max. value for wire feed (normally 25 m /min)

Output I/O signal from welding equipment to control equipment

Arc Acknowledge

The signal is activated after established welding start if the voltage and current

strength lie within weldable limits. The signal disappears if welding cannot be

established.

The criterion for establishing a welding arc is that the process control has passed the

start- procedure, which means that there it not sufficient with only a short circuit to

meet the criteria. Normal delay from the first contact, which is acknowledged by the

welding arc (wire feed time for this that the first contact is established ) is in the

interval 2 to 20 ms. If there is a poor start to the welding arc the "Arc acknowledge" is

further delayed.

Touch Sense Response

This signal indicates contact in the welding circuit, i.e. that the wire is in contact with

the workpiece. To obtain "touch sense response" the "touch sense" input signal must

be activated.

Collision robot (AntiCollisionDetect)

The signal comes via the internal CAN bus from the feeding mechanism

(RoboFeed). The signal indicates that the robot's breaker has activated. The

interface activates a relay which breaks two safety loops from the robot, at which the

robot orders a quick stop of both robot and the welding equipment.

The output is high when the welding gun breaker is tripped (the signal is sent to the

robot).

Machine faults

The signal is low when an error has been detected in the welding equipment.
