P.513 USB
Prompt
This setting enables and disables the USB prompt. If enabled, the USB prompt
will appear whenever a USB drive is plugged into the system (the prompt is the
same as P.37).
This parameter can only be accessed using Power Wave Manager software.
P.514
USB Key Lock
This setting turns on and off the USB-Key lock on a feeder.
When the feeder is locked, all encoders and buttons on the UI are disabled,
Cold-Inch and Gas Purge are dis- abled, and the feeder will not weld. Other
feeders connected to the same Power Source will not be affected.
The only way to unlock the feeder is to plug a "USB Key" into the system. The
key is a USB drive that has the correct .key file in its "Lincoln\Keys" directory. A
USB drive can be turned into a key by using the "Create USB Key" option in
P.37 on the feeder, or by creating the key through PowerWave Manager
(future feature).
A .key file is specific to a feeder and the USB drive. A .key file that works on
one feeder will not work on another feeder. A .key file that works on one USB
drive will not work on another USB drive. A USB drive can have multiple .key
files, making it a "USB Key" for multiple feeders.
This parameter can only be accessed using Power Wave Manager software.
