1.d. Keep all equipment safety guards, covers

and devices in position and in good repair.
Keep hands, hair, clothing and tools away
from V-belts, gears, fans and all other
moving parts when starting, operating or
repairing equipment.
1.e. In some cases it may be necessary to remove safety guards to
perform required maintenance. Remove guards only when
necessary and replace them when the maintenance requiring
their removal is complete. Always use the greatest care when
working near moving parts.
1.f. Do not put your hands near the engine fan. Do not attempt to
override the governor or idler by pushing on the throttle control
rods while the engine is running.
1.g. To prevent accidentally starting gasoline engines while turning
the engine or welding generator during maintenance work,
disconnect the spark plug wires, distributor cap or magneto wire
as appropriate.
1.h. To avoid scalding, do not remove the radiator
pressure cap when the engine is hot.
ELECTRIC AND
MAGNETIC FIELDS MAY
BE DANGEROUS
2.a. Electric current flowing through any conductor
causes localized Electric and Magnetic Fields (EMF).
Welding current creates EMF fields around welding cables
and welding machines
2.b. EMF fields may interfere with some pacemakers, and
welders having a pacemaker should consult their physician
before welding.
FOR ENGINE POWERED

EQUIPMENT.
1.a. Turn the engine off before troubleshooting
and maintenance work unless the
maintenance work requires it to be running.
1.b. Operate engines in open, well-ventilated
areas or vent the engine exhaust fumes outdoors.
1.c. Do not add the fuel near an open flame
welding arc or when the engine is running.
Stop the engine and allow it to cool before
refueling to prevent spilled fuel from
vaporizing on contact with hot engine parts
and igniting. Do not spill fuel when filling
tank. If fuel is spilled, wipe it up and do not start engine until
fumes have been eliminated.
2.c. Exposure to EMF fields in welding may have other health effects
which are now not known.
2.d. All welders should use the following procedures in order to
minimize exposure to EMF fields from the welding circuit:
2.d.1. Route the electrode and work cables together - Secure
them with tape when possible.
2.d.2. Never coil the electrode lead around your body.
2.d.3. Do not place your body between the electrode and work
cables. If the electrode cable is on your right side, the
work cable should also be on your right side.
2.d.4. Connect the work cable to the workpiece as close as possible to the area being welded.
2.d.5. Do not work next to welding power source.
Safety 02 of 04 - 06/15/2016
SAFETY
ELECTRIC SHOCK
CAN KILL.
ARC RAYS CAN BURN.
3.a. The electrode and work (or ground) circuits are

electrically hot when the welder is on. Do
not touch these hot parts with your bare skin or wet clothing.
Wear dry, hole-free gloves to insulate hands.
4.a.
Use a shield with the proper filter and cover plates to protect your
eyes from sparks and the rays of the arc when welding or
observing open arc welding. Headshield and filter lens should
conform to ANSI Z87. I standards.
3.b. Insulate yourself from work and ground using dry insulation.
Make certain the insulation is large enough to cover your full area
of physical contact with work and ground.
4.b.
Use suitable clothing made from durable flame-resistant material

to protect your skin and that of your helpers from the arc rays.
4.c.
Protect other nearby personnel with suitable, non-flammable

screening and/or warn them not to watch the arc nor expose
themselves to the arc rays or to hot spatter or metal.
In addition to the normal safety precautions, if

welding must be performed under electrically
hazardous conditions (in damp locations or while
wearing wet clothing; on metal structures such as
floors, gratings or scaffolds; when in cramped
positions such as sitting, kneeling or lying, if there
is a high risk of unavoidable or accidental contact
with the workpiece or ground) use the following
equipment:
Semiautomatic DC Constant Voltage (Wire) Welder.
DC Manual (Stick) Welder.
AC Welder with Reduced Voltage Control.
3.c. In semiautomatic or automatic wire welding, the electrode,
electrode reel, welding head, nozzle or semiautomatic welding
gun are also electrically hot.
3.d. Always be sure the work cable makes a good electrical
connection with the metal being welded. The connection should
be as close as possible to the area being welded.
3.e. Ground the work or metal to be welded to a good electrical (earth)
ground.
3.f. Maintain the electrode holder, work clamp, welding cable and
welding machine in good, safe operating condition. Replace
damaged insulation.
3.g. Never dip the electrode in water for cooling.
3.h. Never simultaneously touch electrically hot parts of electrode
holders connected to two welders because voltage between the
two can be the total of the open circuit voltage of both

welders.
FUMES AND GASES

CAN BE DANGEROUS.
5.a. Welding may produce fumes and gases
hazardous to health. Avoid breathing these fumes and gases.
When welding, keep your head out of the fume. Use enough
ventilation and/or exhaust at the arc to keep fumes and gases
away from the breathing zone. When welding hardfacing
(see instructions on container or SDS) or on lead
or cadmium plated steel and other metals or
coatings which produce highly toxic fumes, keep
exposure as low as possible and within applicable
OSHA PEL and ACGIH TLV limits using local
exhaust or mechanical ventilation unless exposure
assessments indicate otherwise. In confined
spaces or in some circumstances, outdoors, a
respirator may also be required. Additional
precautions are also required when welding
on galvanized steel.
5. b. The operation of welding fume control equipment is affected by
various factors including proper use and positioning of the
equipment, maintenance of the equipment and the specific
welding procedure and application involved. Worker exposure
level should be checked upon installation and periodically
thereafter to be certain it is within applicable OSHA PEL and
ACGIH TLV limits.
3.i. When working above floor level, use a safety belt to protect
yourself from a fall should you get a shock.
5.c. Do not weld in locations near chlorinated hydrocarbon vapors

coming from degreasing, cleaning or spraying operations. The
heat and rays of the arc can react with solvent vapors to form
phosgene, a highly toxic gas, and other irritating products.
3.j. Also see Items 6.c. and 8.
5.d. Shielding gases used for arc welding can displace air and cause
injury or death. Always use enough ventilation, especially in

confined areas, to insure breathing air is safe.
5.e. Read and understand the manufacturers instructions for this
equipment and the consumables to be used, including the

Safety Data Sheet (SDS) and follow your employers safety
practices. SDS forms are available from your welding
distributor or from the manufacturer.
5.f. Also see item 1.b.
Safety 03 of 04 - 06/15/2016
SAFETY
WELDING AND CUTTING

SPARKS CAN CAUSE
FIRE OR EXPLOSION.
6.a. Remove fire hazards from the welding area. If
this is not possible, cover them to prevent the welding sparks
from starting a fire. Remember that welding sparks and hot
materials from welding can easily go through small cracks and
openings to adjacent areas. Avoid welding near hydraulic lines.
Have a fire extinguisher readily available.
6.b. Where compressed gases are to be used at the job site, special
precautions should be used to prevent hazardous situations.
Refer to Safety in Welding and Cutting (ANSI Standard Z49.1)
and the operating information for the equipment being used.
6.c. When not welding, make certain no part of the electrode circuit is
touching the work or ground. Accidental contact can cause
overheating and create a fire hazard.
6.d. Do not heat, cut or weld tanks, drums or containers until the
proper steps have been taken to insure that such procedures
will not cause flammable or toxic vapors from substances inside.
They can cause an explosion even though they have been
cleaned. For information, purchase Recommended Safe
Practices for the Preparation for Welding and Cutting of
Containers and Piping That Have Held Hazardous Substances,
AWS F4.1 from the American Welding Society
(see address above).
6.e. Vent hollow castings or containers before heating, cutting or
welding. They may explode.
6.f. Sparks and spatter are thrown from the welding arc. Wear oil free
protective garments such as leather gloves, heavy shirt, cuffless
trousers, high shoes and a cap over your hair. Wear ear plugs
when welding out of position or in confined places. Always wear
safety glasses with side shields when in a welding area.
6.g. Connect the work cable to the work as close to the welding area
as practical. Work cables connected to the building framework or
other locations away from the welding area increase the
possibility of the welding current passing through lifting chains,
crane cables or other alternate circuits. This can create fire
hazards or overheat lifting chains or cables until they fail.
6.h. Also see item 1.c.
6.I. Read and follow NFPA 51B Standard for Fire Prevention During
Welding, Cutting and Other Hot Work, available from NFPA, 1
Batterymarch Park, PO box 9101, Quincy, MA 022690-9101.
6.j. Do not use a welding power source for pipe thawing.
CYLINDER MAY EXPLODE IF

DAMAGED.
7.a. Use only compressed gas cylinders containing
the correct shielding gas for the process used
and properly operating regulators designed for
the gas and pressure used. All hoses, fittings,
etc. should be suitable for the application and
maintained in good condition.
7.b. Always keep cylinders in an upright position securely chained to
an undercarriage or fixed support.
7.c. Cylinders should be located:
Away from areas where they may be struck or subjected

to physical damage.
A safe distance from arc welding or cutting operations

and any other source of heat, sparks, or flame.
7.d. Never allow the electrode, electrode holder or any other

electrically hot parts to touch a cylinder.
7.e. Keep your head and face away from the cylinder valve outlet
when opening the cylinder valve.
7.f. Valve protection caps should always be in place and hand tight
except when the cylinder is in use or connected for use.
7.g. Read and follow the instructions on compressed gas cylinders,
associated equipment, and CGA publication P-l, Precautions for
Safe Handling of Compressed Gases in Cylinders, available from
the Compressed Gas Association, 14501 George Carter Way
Chantilly, VA 20151.
FOR ELECTRICALLY
POWERED EQUIPMENT.
8.a. Turn off input power using the disconnect
switch at the fuse box before working on
the equipment.
8.b. Install equipment in accordance with the U.S. National Electrical
Code, all local codes and the manufacturers recommendations.
8.c. Ground the equipment in accordance with the U.S. National

INSTALLATION
RECOMMENDED WORK CABLE

SIZES FOR ARC WELDING
Connect the electrode and work cables between the
appropriate output studs of the POWER WAVE R350
per the following guidelines:
Most welding applications run with the electrode
being positive (+). For those applications, connect
the electrode cable between the wire drive feed plate
and the positive (+) output stud on the power source.
Connect a work lead from the negative (-) power
source output stud to the work piece
When negative electrode polarity is required, such
as in some Innershield applications, reverse the output connections at the power source (electrode cable
to the negative (-) stud, and work cable to the positive (+) stud).
CAUTION
General Guidelines
Select the appropriate size cables per the
Output Cable Guidelines below. Excessive voltage drops caused by undersized welding cables and
poor connections often result in unsatisfactory welding performance. Always use the largest welding
cables (electrode and work) that are practical, and
be sure all connections are clean and tight.
Note: Excessive heat in the weld circuit indicates
undersized cables and/or bad connections.
Route all cables directly to the work and wire
feeder, avoid excessive lengths and do not coil
excess cable. Route the electrode and work cables
in close proximity to one another to minimize the
loop area and therefore the inductance of the weld
circuit.
Always weld in a direction away from the work
(ground) connection.
Negative electrode polarity operation WITHOUT

use of a remote work sense lead (21) requires the
Negative Electrode Polarity attribute to be set. See
the Remote Sense Lead Specification section of
this document for further details.

CABLE INDUCTANCE AND ITS

EFFECTS ON WELDING
Excessive cable inductance will cause the welding
performance to degrade. There are several factors
that contribute to the overall inductance of the cabling
system including cable size, and loop area. The loop
area is defined by the separation distance between
the electrode and work cables, and the overall welding
loop length. The welding loop length is defined as the
total of length of the electrode cable (A) + work cable
(B) + work path (C) (See Figure A.6).
To minimize inductance always use the appropriate
size cables, and whenever possible, run the electrode
and work cables in close proximity to one another to
minimize the loop area. Since the most significant factor in cable inductance is the welding loop length,
avoid excessive lengths and do not coil excess cable.
For long work piece lengths, a sliding ground should
be considered to keep the total welding loop length as
short as possible.
REMOTE SENSE LEAD

SPECIFICATIONS
Voltage Sensing Overview
The best arc performance occurs when the POWER
WAVE R350 has accurate data about the arc conditions.
Depending upon the process, inductance within the

electrode and work cables can influence the voltage
apparent at the studs of the welder, and have a dramatic effect on performance. Remote voltage sense
leads are used to improve the accuracy of the arc voltage information supplied to the control pc board.
Sense Lead Kits (K940-xx) are available for this purpose.
The POWER WAVE R350 has the ability to automatically sense when remote sense leads are connected.
With this feature there are no requirements for settingup the machine to use remote sense leads. This feature can be disabled through the Diagnostics Utility
(available at www.powerwavesoftware.com).
CAUTION
If the auto sense lead feature is disabled and
remote voltage sensing is enabled but the sense
leads are missing, improperly connected extremely high welding outputs may occur.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------General Guidelines for Voltage Sense Leads
Sense leads should be attached as close to the weld
as practical, and out of the weld current path when
possible. In extremely sensitive applications it may be
necessary to route cables that contain the sense
leads away from the electrode and work welding
cables.
Voltage sense leads requirements are based on the
weld process (See Table A.2)

INSTALLATION
Electrode Voltage Sensing

The remote ELECTRODE sense lead (67) is built into
the 5-pin arclink control cable (K1543-xx) and is
always connected to the wire drive feed plate when a
wire feeder is present. Enabling or disabling electrode
voltage sensing is application specific, and automatically configured by the active weld mode.
Work Voltage Sensing
While most applications perform adequately by sensing the work voltage directly at the output stud, the
use of a remote work voltage sense lead is recommended for optimal performance. The remote WORK
sense lead (21) can be accessed through the four-pin
voltage sense connector located on the control panel
by using the K940 Sense Lead Kit. It must be
attached to the work as close to the weld as practical,
but out of the weld current path. For more information
regarding the placement of remote work voltage
sense leads, see the section entitled "Voltage Sensing
Considerations for Multiple Arc Systems."
Negative Electrode Polarity
The POWER WAVE R350 has the ability to automatically sense the polarity of the sense leads. With this
feature there are no set-up requirements for welding
with negative electrode polarity. This feature can be
disabled through the Diagnostics Utility (available at
www.powerwavesoftware.com).
CAUTION
If the auto sense lead feature is disabled and the
weld polarity attribute is improperly configured
extremely high welding outputs may occur.

VOLTAGE SENSING
CONSIDERATIONS FOR MULTIPLE
ARC SYSTEMS
Special care must be taken when more than one arc
is welding simultaneously on a single part. Multiple
arc applications do not necessarily dictate the use of
remote work voltage sense leads, but they are strongly recommended.
If Sense Leads ARE NOT Used:
Avoid common current paths. Current from adjacent arcs can induce voltage into each others current paths that can be misinterpreted by the power
sources, and result in arc interference.
A-9
If Sense Leads ARE Used:

Position the sense leads out of the path of the
weld current. Especially any current paths common to adjacent arcs. Current from adjacent arcs
can induce voltage into each others current paths
that can be misinterpreted by the power sources,
and result in arc interference.
For longitudinal applications, connect all work
leads at one end of the weldment, and all of the
work voltage sense leads at the opposite end of the
weldment. Perform welding in the direction away
from the work leads and toward the sense leads.
(See Figure A.7)
FIGURE A.7

INSTALLATION
For circumferential applications, connect all work
leads on one side of the weld joint, and all of the

CONTROL CABLE CONNECTIONS

General Guidelines
Genuine Lincoln control cables should be used at all
times (except where noted otherwise). Lincoln cables
are specifically designed for the communication and
power needs of the Power Wave / Power Feed systems. Most are designed to be connected end to end
for ease of extension. Generally, it is recommended
that the total length not exceed 100ft. (30.5m). The
use of non-standard cables, especially in lengths
greater than 25 feet, can lead to communication problems (system shutdowns), poor motor acceleration
(poor arc starting), and low wire driving force (wire
feeding problems). Always use the shortest length of
control cable possible, and DO NOT coil excess
cable.
Regarding cable placement, best results will be
obtained when control cables are routed separate
from the weld cables. This minimizes the possibility of
interference between the high currents flowing
through the weld cables, and the low level signals in
the control cables. These recommendations apply to
all communication cables including ArcLink and
Ethernet connections.
Product specific Installation Instructions
Connection Between Power Source and ArcLink
Compatible Wirefeeders (K1543-xx, K2683-xx
ArcLink Control Cable)
The 5-pin ArcLink control cable connects the power
source to the wire feeder. The control cable consists
of two power leads, one twisted pair for digital communication, and one lead for voltage sensing. The 5pin ArcLink connection on the POWER WAVE R350 is
located on the rear panel above the power cord. The
control cable is keyed and polarized to prevent
improper connection. Best results will be obtained
when control cables are routed separate from the
weld cables, especially in long distance applications.
The recommended combined length of the ArcLink
control cable network should not exceed 200ft.
(61.0m).
A-11
Connection Between Power Source and Wire

Feeder (K1785 or K2709 Control Cable)
The 14-pin wire feeder control cable connects the
power source to the wire drive. It contains all of the
necessary signals to drive the motor and monitor the
arc, including the motor power, tachometer, and arc
voltage feedback signals. The wire feeder connection
on the POWER WAVE R350 is located in the upperright corner of the case back. The K2709 series external dress cable is recommended for severe duty applications such as hard automation or for robot arms not
equipped with an internal control cable. Best results
will be obtained when control cables are routed separate from the weld cables, especially in long distance
applications. Maximum cable length should not
exceed 25ft (7.6m).
Connection Between Power Source and Ethernet
Networks
The POWER WAVE R350 is equipped with an IP67
rated ODVA compliant RJ-45 Ethernet connector,
which is located on the rear panel. All external
Ethernet equipment (cables, switches, etc.), as
defined by the connection diagrams, must be supplied
by the customer. It is critical that all Ethernet cables
external to either a conduit or an enclosure are solid
conductor, shielded cat 5e cable, with a drain. The
drain should be grounded at the source of transmission. For best results, route Ethernet cables away
from weld cables, wire drive control cables, or any
other current carrying device that can create a fluctuating magnetic field. For additional guidelines refer to
ISO/IEC 11801. Failure to follow these recommendations can result in an Ethernet connection failure during welding.
Selecting a Wire Drive and Setting the Wire Drive
Gear Ratio.
The POWER WAVE R350 can accommodate a number of standard wire drives including the AutoDrive
4R100 (default), AutoDrive 4R220, and PF-10R. The
feeder control system must be configured for both the
wire drive type and gear ratio (high or low speed
range). This can be accomplished with the Weld
Manager Utility (included on the Power Wave
Utilities and Service Navigator CDs or available at
www.powerwavesoftware.com).

OPERATION
COMMON WELDING PROCEDURES

WARNING
MAKING A WELD
The serviceability of a product or structure utilizing the welding programs is and must be the sole
responsibility of the builder/user. Many variables
beyond the control of The Lincoln Electric
Company affect the results obtained in applying
these programs. These variables include, but are
not limited to, welding procedure, plate chemistry
and temperature, weldment design, fabrication
methods and service requirements. The available
range of a welding program may not be suitable
for all applications, and the build/user is and must
be solely responsible for welding program selection.
Choose the electrode material, electrode size, shielding gas, and process (GMAW, GMAW-P etc.) appropriate for the material to be welded.
Select the weld mode that best matches the desired
welding process. The standard weld set shipped with
the POWER WAVE R350 encompasses a wide
range of common processes that will meet most
needs. If a special weld mode is desired, contact the
local Lincoln Electric sales representative.
All adjustments are made through the user interface.
Because of the different configuration options your
system may not have all of the following adjustments.
See Accessories Section for Kits and Options avaliable to use with the POWER WAVE R350.
Definition of Welding Modes
NON-SYNERGIC WELDING MODES
A Non-synergic welding mode requires all welding
process variables to be set by the operator.
SYNERGIC WELDING MODES
A Synergic welding mode offers the simplicity of
single knob control. The machine will select the correct voltage and amperage based on the Wire Feed
Speed (WFS) set by the operator.
B-5
Basic Welding Controls

Weld Mode
Selecting a weld mode determines the output characteristics of the Power Wave power source. Weld
modes are developed with a specific electrode material, electrode size, and shielding gas. For a more complete description of the weld modes programmed into
the POWER WAVE R350 at the factory, refer to the
Weld Set Reference Guide supplied with the machine
or available at www.powerwavesoftware.com.
Wire Feed Speed (WFS)
In synergic welding modes (synergic CV, GMAW-P),
WFS is the dominant control parameter. The user
adjusts WFS according to factors such as wire size,
penetration requirements, heat input, etc. The
POWER WAVE R350 then uses the WFS setting to
adjust the voltage and current according to settings
contained in the Power Wave.
In non-synergic modes, the WFS control behaves like
a conventional power source where WFS and voltage
are independent adjustments. Therefore, to maintain
proper arc characteristics, the operator must adjust
the voltage to compensate for any changes made to
the WFS.
Amps
In constant current modes, this control adjusts the
welding amperage.
Volts
In constant voltage modes, this control adjusts the
welding voltage.
Trim
In pulse synergic welding modes, the Trim setting
adjusts the arc length. Trim is adjustable from 0.50 to
1.50. 1.00 is the nominal setting and is a good starting point for most conditions.
UltimArc Control
UltimArc Control allows the operator to vary the arc
characteristics. UltimArc Control is adjustable from
10.0 to +10.0 with a nominal setting of 0.0.
POWER WAVE R350
B-6
OPERATION
GTAW (TIG) WELDING

The welding current can be set through a PF10M or
PF25M wire feeder.
The TIG mode features continuous control from 5 to
350 amps with the use of an optional foot amptrol
(K870). The POWER WAVE R350 can be run in
either a Touch Start TIG mode or Scratch start TIG
mode.
CONSTANT VOLTAGE WELDING
Synergic CV
For each wire feed speed, a corresponding voltage is
preprogrammed into the machine through special software at the factory.
B-6
PULSE WELDING
Pulse welding procedures are set by controlling an
overall arc length variable. When pulse welding, the
arc voltage is highly dependent upon the waveform.
The peak current, back ground current, rise time, fall
time and pulse frequency all affect the voltage. The
exact voltage for a given wire feed speed can only be
predicted when all the pulsing waveform parameters
are known. Using a preset voltage becomes impractical and instead the arc length is set by adjusting
trim.
Trim adjusts the arc length and ranges from 0.50 to
1.50 with a nominal value of 1.00. Trim values greater
than 1.00 increase the arc length, while values less
than 1.00 decrease the arc length. (See figure B.3)
The nominal preprogrammed voltage is the best average voltage for a given wire feed speed, but may be
adjusted to preference. When the wire feed speed
changes, the Power Wave automatically adjusts the
voltage level correspondingly to maintain similar arc
characteristics throughout the WFS range.
Non Synergic CV
In non-synergic modes, the WFS control behaves
more like a conventional CV power source where
WFS and voltage are independent adjustments.
Therefore to maintain the arc characteristics, the operator must adjust the voltage to compensate for any
changes made to the WFS.
All CV Modes
Pinch adjusts the apparent inductance of the wave
shape. The pinch function is inversely proportional
to inductance. Therefore, increasing Pinch Control
greater than 0.0 results in a crisper arc (more spatter)
while decreasing the Pinch Control to less than 0.0
provides a softer arc (less spatter).
FIGURE B.3
POWER WAVE R350
B-7
OPERATION
Most pulse welding programs are synergic. As the

wire feed speed is adjusted, the POWER WAVE
R350 will automatically recalculate the waveform
parameters to maintain similar arc properties.
The POWER WAVE R350 utilizes adaptive control
to compensate for changes in the electrical stick-out
while welding. (Electrical stick-out is the distance
from the contact tip to the work piece.) The POWER
WAVE R350 waveforms are optimized for a 0.75
stick-out. The adaptive behavior supports a range of
stick-outs from 0.50 to 1.25. At very low or high wire
feed speeds, the adaptive range may be less due to
reaching physical limitations of the welding process.
UltimArc Control adjusts the focus or shape of the

arc. UltimArc Control is adjustable from -10.0 to
+10.0 with a nominal setting of 0.0. Increasing the
UltimArc Control increases the pulse frequency and
background current while decreasing the peak current. This results in a tight, stiff arc used for high
speed sheet metal welding. Decreasing the
UltimArc Control decreases the pulse frequency
and background current while increasing the peak current. This results in a soft arc good for out of position
welding. (See Figure B.4)

MAINTENANCE
SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
WARNING
Do not operate with covers
removed.
Turn off power source before
installing or servicing.
Do not touch electrically hot
parts.
Turn the input power to the welding power
source off at the fuse box before working in the
terminal strip.
Only qualified personnel should install, use or
service this equipment.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
ROUTINE MAINTENANCE
Routine maintenance consists of periodically blowing
out the machine, using a low-pressure air stream, to
remove accumulated dust and dirt from the intake and
outlet louvers, and the cooling channels in the
machine.
PERIODIC MAINTENANCE
Calibration of the POWER WAVE R350 is critical to
its operation. Generally speaking the calibration will
not need adjustment. However, neglected or improperly calibrated machines may not yield satisfactory
weld performance. To ensure optimal performance,
the calibration of output Voltage and Current should
be checked yearly.
CALIBRATION SPECIFICATION
Output Voltage and Current are calibrated at the factory. Generally the machine calibration will not need
adjustment. However, if the weld performance
changes, or the yearly calibration check reveals a
problem, use the calibration section of the
Diagnostics Utility to make the appropriate adjustments.
The calibration procedure itself requires the use of a
grid, and certified actual meters for voltage and current. The accuracy of the calibration will be directly
affected by the accuracy of the measuring equipment
you use. The Diagnostics Utility includes detailed
instructions, and is available on the Service
Navigator CD or at www.powerwavesoftware.com.

TROUBLESHOOTING
USING THE STATUS LED TO

TROUBLESHOOT SYSTEM PROBLEMS
There are two status lights that display error codes. If a
problem occurs it is important to note the condition of the
status lights. Therefore, prior to cycling power to the system, check the power source status light for error
sequences as noted below.
There is one externally mounted status light located on the
case front of the machine. This status light corresponds to
the main control boards status. A second status light is
internal and is located on the input control board and can be
seen by looking through the left case side louvers. There is
an audible beeper associated with this input control boards
status light. So the error codes on the input board can be
detected through either the status light or the status beeper.
Included in this section is information about the Status

Lights and some basic troubleshooting charts for both
machine and weld performance.
The status lights for the main control board is a dual-color
LEDs. Normal operation for each is steady green. Where
as the status light on the input control board is one color.
Normal operation is for the status light to be off ( and the
buzzer to be off).
Error conditions are indicated in the following Table E.1.

Occurs during power up or a system reset, and indicates the POWER

WAVE R350 is mapping (identifying) each component in the system.
Normal for first 1-10 seconds after power is turned on, or if the system
configuration is changed during operation.
Not applicable.

Not applicable.
Alternating Green and Red
Non-recoverable system fault. If the Status lights are flashing any combination of red and green, errors are present. Read the error code(s)
before the machine is turned off.
Not applicable.
Error Code interpretation through the Status light is detailed in the

Service Manual. Individual code digits are flashed in red with a long
pause between digits. If more than one code is present, the codes will
be separated by a green light. Only active error conditions will be
accessible through the Status Light.
Error codes can also be retrieved with the Diagnostics Utility (included on the Service Navigator CD or available at www.powerwavesoftware.com). This is the preferred method, since it can access
historical information contained in the error logs.
To clear the active error(s), turn power source off, and back on to
reset.
