Digital WPS: transferring DWPS to welding machine

Digital WPSs are created with the WeldEye tool and transferred to the welding machine via Internet or on a USB stick. For more information on WeldEye, see Introduction to WeldEye and www.weldeye.com.

The WPSs must be approved in WeldEye before they can be transferred to the welding machine.

Welding machines are connected to WeldEye in the WeldEye settings. You will need the serial number and security code on the X8 Power Source rating plate. You can find more detailed instructions in the WeldEye Help. Once the welding machine has been connected to WeldEye, within an hour, WPSs are automatically transferred to the welding machine. When new WPSs are created, if the welding machine is online, the WPSs are automatically transferred to the welding machine within 15 minutes after the WPS has been approved.

For information on connecting the welding machine to the Internet, see Connecting to Kemppi cloud services.

All the welding machines of the company can be connected to WeldEye. You can see a list of all the connected machines. If My Fleet is also in use, the services share the same list of machines. For more information on My Fleet, see About My Fleet.
