Abstract
Welding is controlled from a control station (14) located at some distance from the welding zone. Before the start of a welding pass, the welding parameters are set by an operator, to whom the values to be given to the parameters as a function of the type of pass are supplied by a memory in which the information relating to the welding is stored. The welding operation is started, after the parameters have been checked as a function of the content of the memory. The welding operation is monitored continuously by the operator by means of a remote screen display of the welding zone. If appropriate, the operator changes some of the welding parameters according to the screen image of the welding zone. These changes are checked by comparison with the content of the memory.
