Operation Manual

X8 MIG WELDER 2.4 Operation
Create work orders in the WeldEye cloud service, and once released, they become automatically available to
welding machines within 15 minutes. You can restrict the visibility of the work orders to individual persons or
welding machines.
For more information about the automated collection of welding data, see Using welding data collection.
Using work orders
Digital work orders provide a simple way to achieve traceability in WeldEye and to reduce the amount of
printed paper. Normally you would have to use printed weld lists with barcodes and deliver them to each
welding station.
With digital work orders, you no longer need to print weld lists on paper, as they are delivered digitally to
each welding station, where each welder can see the necessary information. Rather than reading barcodes,
the welders select the weld they are about to perform.
Selecting work order and weld
Select the work order before welding to indicate that it is being worked on and to associate welding data
with it. When selected, the work order is marked as started in the WeldEye cloud service. The start time and
the logged in welder is recorded.
Proceed as follows:
1.
Before welding, open the Task view in Control Pad and select Work order.
2.
Select the work order from the list.
Note: If the work order does not open, check that:
• The work order is released in WeldEye
• There are no welder or welding machine restrictions in the work order
• The device has been online for at least 15 minutes
