From Miller to You
Thank you and congratulations on choosing Miller. Now you can get
the job done and get it done right. We know you don’t have time to do
it any other way.
That’s why when Niels Miller first started building arc welders in 1929,
he made sure his products offered long-lasting value and superior
quality. Like you, his customers couldn’t afford anything less. Miller
products had to be more than the best they could be. They had to be
the best you could buy.
Today, the people that build and sell Miller products continue the
tradition. They’re just as committed to providing equipment and
service that meets the high standards of quality and value established
in 1929.
This Owner’s Manual is designed to help you get the most out of your
Miller products. Please take time to read the Safety Precautions. They
will help you protect yourself against potential hazards on the
worksite. We’ve made installation and operation quick and easy. With
Miller, you can count on years of reliable service with proper
maintenance. And if for some reason the unit needs repair, there’s a
Troubleshooting section that will help you figure out what the problem
is, and our extensive service network is there to help fix the problem.
Warranty and maintenance information for your particular model are
also provided.
Miller Electric manufactures a full line of
welders and welding-related equipment. For

SECTION 4 – SPECIFICATIONS
4-1. Introduction
The AugmentedArc is an augmented reality (AR) welding training system that provides the new student or the experienced welder the opportu-
nity to develop, enhance, or verify their welding abilities through an interactive, simulated welding process on a variety of weld joint configura-
tions. This product is designed to help welding students acquire the necessary welding knowledge, capacities, abilities, welding sensations and
skills, thereby saving the time and money normally spent training in a live welding situation. It is an educational solution to help both students
and trainers improve their learning experience and enhance results and qualifications. The system can be installed as a standalone or classroom
configuration.
After the AugmentedArc system is installed, the user turns on the training system, selects the desired welding assignment, puts on the aug-
mented reality (AR) welding helmet and welding gloves (welding gloves are recommended to simulate a live welding experience), and begins
the simulated welding activity. The cameras and AR markers convey the weld data (gun angles, gun speed, contact tip to work distance [CTWD],
aim) to the system microprocessor, which compares it to the specified weld parameters of the assignment selected. The system evaluates the
weld data and grades the student’s performance.
The AugmentedArc instruction is complementary to training with live welding equipment. To complete their welding training, students should also
practice their acquired skills by welding under the supervision of qualified persons in a safe welding environment.
NOTICE – Do not install or use the Augmented Arc in the same area as live welding equipment.
4-2. System Features And Benefits
lAdvanced computer simulation techniques using artificial vision technology create a realistic welding environment.
lTeacher software allows the instructor to adapt their training programs to the AugmentedArc system. The instructor can manage and moni-
tor student activity and progress from a PC (personal computer) (see Section 9).
lAnalysis mode allows all of the welding exercises performed in the simulator to be visualized, providing detailed results of all of the welding
parameters.
lSystem allows for remote maintenance and software updates, and is adaptable to meet specific training requirements.
lThe system configuration can be installed as a standalone or classroom application. The standalone application includes a simulator and a
router, and all of the information is saved on the unit. The classroom application can include multiple simulators, a router, and a controller.
All of the information is saved on the controller.

5-5. Connecting Simulator To An External Monitor
1 HDMI Receptacle
Use the HDMI receptacle to connect the sim-
ulator to an external monitor. (HDMI cable is
not supplied.)
The external monitor must be connected to
the simulator at start-up for the HDMI output
to be enabled. If the simulator is already
turned on, connect the external monitor via
HDMI and then restart the simulator
F
Due to the various resolution settings
of commercial monitors, some external
monitors will show the initial start-up
screens but not any subsequent
screens. To resolve this problem, after
the simulator starts up, disconnect the
HDMI cable from the simulator and
then reconnect it.

5-9. AR Stick Electrode, MIG Gun, TIG Torch, And Workpieces
1 AR Stick Electrode And Holder
Markers on the stick electrode allow it to
work with the AR system. The electrode is
similar in shape, weight, and size to a real
electrode. It is placed within the holder,
which is connected to the simulator. The
holder retracts the electrode during welding
exercises to simulate the electrode con-
sumption in real welding.
F
Install Stick electrode in holder exactly
as shown.
2 AR MIG/FCAW Welding Gun
Markers on the AR MIG/FCAW welding gun
allow it to work with the AR system. The gun
is connected to a real welding connector in
the simulator. MIG/FCAW welding is a semi-
automatic process that uses a continuous
wire feed as an electrode and an inert (MIG)
gas mixture to protect the weld from contami-
nation. The wire can be solid (GMAW) or
cored (FCAW). The student begins by se-
lecting the shielding gas, wire type, and di-
ameter. After the exercise has begun, the
student adjusts the wire feed speed on the
simulator.
3 AR TIG Torch And Filler Rod
Markers on the TIG (GTAW) torch and AR
filler rod allow it to work with the AR system.
The torch is connected to a real welding con-
nector in the simulator. The filler material is
added to the weld joint by a AR filler rod that
is tracked using the AR marker accessory.
The student adds filler by dipping the rod into
the weld joint, just as in real welding. The AR
filler rod is similar in shape, size, and weight
to a real filler rod and helps the student be-
come familiar with using this equipment.
4 AR Workpieces
The AR workpieces are in standard joint con-
figurations (Bead On Plate, T-Joint, Butt
Joint, Lap Joint, Pipe-Plate, Pipe-Pipe, V-
Groove With Backing, V-Groove Without
Backing) and are designed to work with the
AR system.
5 Workpiece Stand
Use to hold workpieces in position for flat,
horizontal, vertical, or overhead welding
exercises.

3 Right Micro-Camera
The AR welding helmet has two high resolu-
tion micro-cameras and a 4.8 in. (122 mm)
internal display screen. The cameras track
the workpiece and gun/electrode markers
and convey the weld data (gun angles, gun
speed, contact tip to work distance [CTWD],
aim) to the system microprocessor. The Aug-
mentedArc accessories (workpieces, guns,
torches, electrode, filler rod) and the real en-
vironment are displayed on the helmet
screen and these elements interact to create
a real-time augmented reality welding
experience.
