1. Safety
2. Safety

This device is an emission class B device.

• are only intended for use in or in the immediate vicinity of residential, business, and commercial areas.
• can cause wiring-related or radiated interference in other areas.

In certain cases, even though a device complies with the standard limit values for emissions, it may affect the application area for which it was designed (e.g., when there is sensitive equipment at the same location, or if the site where the device is installed is close to either radio or television receivers).
If this is the case, then the operating company is obliged to take appropriate action to rectify the situation.

• Safety devices
• Grid power lines, signal lines, and data transfer lines
• IT and telecommunications equipment
• Devices for measuring and calibrating

1. Grid power supply
   • Use only the supplied power cables.
   • If electromagnetic interference occurs despite a mains connection that complies with regulations, take additional measures (e.g., use a suitable grid filter).

2. No modifications to the device
   • Modifications made to the device without prior agreement with the manufacturer may result in loss of type approval.

3. If the device is suspected of interfering with the reception of television or radio signals or the operation of another device:
   • Confirm the device as a source of interference by switching it on and off.
   • If this identifies the device as a source of interference, remedy the fault using the anti-interference measures listed below.

4. Anti-interference measures

As a result of updates, your software may contain functions that are not described in these operating instructions. In addition, individual figures may also differ slightly from the operating elements of your software. These operating elements function in exactly the same way, however.

Implementation of software updates depends on the operating variant. Detailed information on the relay board can be found in the chapter Software.

In "Cloud" operating mode, software updates are carried out via the AdminTool.

In "Standalone" operating mode, software updates are also carried out via the AdminTool, provided the user has internet access.

If no internet access is available in "standalone" operating mode, software updates are carried out via a USB thumb drive on the USB port of the Welducation Simulator.

If no automatic software update is pre-configured, or in the case of a software update via USB thumb drive, the current firmware update can be found in the DownloadCenter for the Welducation Simulator welding technology product in question.

• Low-cost training. Consumables are not required (wire electrodes, shielding gas, etc.).
• The trainees are not exposed to the dangers of welding (heat, welding fume, welding spatter, noise, etc.).
• Training is carried out with increased intensity.
• The arc time is many times longer than with traditional training.
• The teacher can guide the trainees in a more sustainable way, look over their shoulder, and give them crucial tips.
• Each welding result can be precisely analyzed, e.g., with regard to torch guidance, seam formation, etc.
• The learning progress of the trainees is documented and comparable.
• The learning content can be adapted as required.
• The variety of welding torches and workpieces enables the simulation of numerous different tasks.

The Welducation Simulator largely corresponds to a real welding machine in terms of its appearance, operation, interfaces, and connections. As such, the focus is not only on welding, but also on the preparatory activities.

1. General information
2. Welducation Simulator training concept

The XR headset is used to visualize the welding simulation. The XR headset operates according to the principle of augmented reality. The trainees see the welding torch or the stick electrode together with the arc and the workpiece with the resulting weld as an animation. To aid orientation, the environment is displayed as a real camera image, e.g., of the user's own hands.

The XR headset is equipped with an optical camera and an additional stereo camera for recording and integrating the virtually displayed objects.

1. General information
2. Welducation Simulator training concept

The standard equipment of the Welducation Simulator offers a wide range of welding scenarios. In addition to the MIG/MAG, TIG, and MMA welding processes that can be learned with the simulator, the variety of supplied virtual workpieces ensures the trainees receive varied, practical training.

In order to practice welding as realistically as possible, it was important to also reproduce the system components as faithfully as possible. This means that the welding torch and electrode holder correspond to their real-life role model in terms of haptics and weight.

Both the welding torch or the electrode holder and the return lead cable for the workpiece are connected as they would be in a real welding situation.

• Administrator: There is exactly one administrator for each customer organization. The administrator primarily uses the Welducation AdminTool software to commission and maintain the Welducation Simulators within the assigned organization, as well as to set up the authorized trainers within the assigned organization. 
• Campus Trainer: The Campus Trainer can invite Campus Students to a customer organization in the AdminTool, and can also create courses and their own content in Welducation Campus. The Campus Trainer mainly uses the Welducation Campus software to manage the courses and Campus Students. The Campus Trainer puts together a training program that is tailored to the needs of the Campus Students. The training program consists of theory content and exercises on all three welding processes: MIG/MAG, TIG, and MMA. It provides an overview of the learning progress of the Campus Students. The learning progress of the Campus Students can be evaluated and assessed. 
• Campus Students: The Campus Students can participate in courses (Campus). The Campus Students use the Welducation Campus software to complete the courses within the assigned organization. The Campus Students study the theory content already included or prepared by the trainer and complete the practical exercises assigned to them on the Welducation Simulator.
