Product Information MODEL 9700 Control Unique Design Large Graphic Display For Longitudinal Welding For Circumferential Welding For Wire Feeders For Arc Length Control The 9700T travel control, 9700W wire feed control, and 9790 arc length control are shown mounted on a longitudinal seam welder carriage. Description Introduction The 9700 series of microprocessor controls uses the latest technology to provide the perfect solution for the perfect weld. The controls are used for all Jetline motor driven applications and are compatible with other manufacturer’s equipment. Longitudinal carriages, precision lathes, circumferential systems, cold and hot wire feeders - as standard, they all employ the same user-friendly 9700 control. The 9700T and 9700W controls use identical control hardware with the same size front panel and enclosure. Operators rapidly become familiar with the user-friendly layout. The model 9700T can be set for either longitudinal or circumferential travel. Model 9700W is used for wire feed speed on cold and hot wire feeders. The model 9790 control is used for arc length control. It is housed in a larger enclosure and has a slightly different panel layout. The unique feature of the 9700 series of controls is that they are all completely software driven. A control which is identical physically can be used for many different applications. Custom-written routines, developed by Jetline software engineers, guide the operator through the set-up and weld procedure. Software programs have been prepared for longitudinal welding, circumferential welding, wire feeding, and for arc length control. Much research has gone into the design of the front panel. Operating switches and controls have been selected for their tactile feel. The start and stop buttons can be easily located. The stop button protudes further than the start button to simplify indentiﬁcation. Microprocessor-based control technology. User-friendly front panel layout. Large screen with graphic backlit display. Easy calibration with the Jetline ‘Auto Cal’ program. Touch retract capable. Closed-loop control for higher accuracy and stability. Backward compatible to 9600 controlled equipment. 9700T Travel Control The 9700T travel control includes a special E-stop function. When initiated, this remotely shuts off the auxiliary control contactor signals only on those components connected directly to it. It does not de-energize the input power to other controls. 15 Goodyear St, Irvine, California 92618 U.S.A. • Tel: (949) 951-1515

9700 MICROPROCESSOR CONTROL Setting of the speed and other features is aided by a backlit LCD display showing four lines of display. Custom-designed software takes the operator through a set of routines to permit the setting of speed, delays, and other ancillary operations. The operator scrolls through the options using four touch-sensitive pads at the lower corner of the display. WIRE DRIVE In addition to the convenient mode of operation, the system includes setup and calibration modes. Jog speeds for forward and reverse jog are independently adjustable. The Auto Cal feature allows the...
