Abstract
A welding system having a weld torch, a first transmitting circuit, and a first receiving circuit is provided. The weld torch is coupled to a weld cable and is configured for a welding application. The first transmitting circuit includes a first processor and a sensor system with at least one sensor configured to detect sensor information related to the weld torch. The first processor transmits one or more control signals based on the received sensor information. The first receiving circuit includes communications circuitry and a second processor that receives the one or more control signals and generates information related to a trigger status based on the one or more control signals. The communications circuitry transmits the information to the wire feeder, and the wire feeder controls an operating parameter of the welding system based at least in part on the information related to the trigger status.
