CONFIG_DIGITAL_WELDING_INTERFACE_PROCESS2

This structure defines the secondary process status and monitoring mapping for digital welding interfaces. It focuses on real-time signal exchange between the welding robot and power source, tracking process flow, machine readiness, and current feedback.

Note

  • This structure complements CONFIG_DIGITAL_WELDING_INTERFACE_PROCESS by providing extended process monitoring signals.

  • _tMachineReady ensures proper startup synchronization.

  • _tCommReady confirms communication between the welding controller and robot system.

  • Commonly used in digital fieldbus-controlled welding machines (e.g., EtherCAT, ProfiNet).
