WELDING SYSTEM AND METHODOLOGY PROVIDING MULTIPLEXED CELL CONTROL INTERFACE

摘要

The present invention provides a welding system and methodology to facilita te communications and control. The system includes a cell controller to control one or more welders over a control network. An interface module associated with the cell controller and the control network communicates with the welders and employs a communications protocol adapted to the interface module to facilitate communications and control between the cell controller and the one or more welders over the control network.
