Problem with changing the parameters for welding of my FANUC

Hi all,

I am having some troubles with altering the parameters for my FANUC's welding. The model of my FANUC is ARCMATE 100i and its controller is RJ2. If anyone of you have any information of the way to change its AMPERE and VOLTAGE ratings then please let me know as soon as possible. 

I am in need of the parameters because of the welding source of my FANUC robot is needs change in these parameters and I am not able to change it. I am only able to change 'TRIM', 'WIRE SPEED', 'TRAVEL SPEED', but change of these parameters is not enough.

Any help will be highly appreciated.

Didn't find what you were looking for?

    Dear Chang!

    The alterations that you may make in the weld process is depending on the welding mode that you have selected. For example, I am using the Lincoln Power Wave 455 welder and I am able to select different of its modes.

    Basically, mode is defining the type of welding that you would perform and it sound like you have selected the PULSE mode. Pulse will only allow you to change 'TRIM', 'WIRE SPEED', 'TRAVEL SPEED'. However, if you would select the CONSTANT VOLTAGE mode, then you will be able to define the voltage and current.

    Remember selecting the right mode before application.
    thank you

    HI Ishaq, 

    Thank you so much for your response.

    Now I am able to understand that I have to change the right mode of welder. However, I have another question that which of the overlays I will be using for the respective change?

    Waiting to hear from you again :)
