3. 3. A welding machine is provided with: a welder side memory storing a display list of identifiers representing at least one image data and image data corresponding to at least a part of the identifiers represented by the display list, and And a welder-side control unit that executes a welder-side transmission process in which at least a part of the display list and the image data stored in the welder-side memory is read from the welder-side memory and transmitted to an operation device.
4. 4. The welding machine as claimed in claim 3, wherein, The welder-side control section further performs a receiving process of receiving an identifier of image data stored in the operation device from the operation device, In the welding-side transmission process, image data corresponding to the identifier received in the reception process among the identifiers represented by the display list is not transmitted to the operation device.
5. 5. An image display method for causing an operation device of a welding machine to display an image, the image display method comprising: A welder-side transmitting step in which the welder transmits, to the operation device, a display list of identifiers representing at least one image data and image data corresponding to at least a part of the identifiers represented by the display list; A preparation step of receiving and storing the display list and the image data transmitted in the welding-side transmission step, and And a display step of displaying, by the operation device, an image based on image data corresponding to the identifier represented by the display list.
6. 6. The image display method according to claim 5, wherein, The image display method further includes: An operation device side transmitting step of transmitting an identifier of the stored image data to the welder, and A receiving step of receiving the identifier transmitted in the operation device side transmitting step by the welder, In the welder-side transmitting step, the welder does not transmit image data corresponding to the identifier received in the receiving step among the identifiers represented by the display list to the operation device.
7. 7. A welding system is provided with a welding machine and an operating device, The welding machine performs a welding machine-side transmission process of transmitting a display list representing at least one identifier of image data and image data corresponding to at least a part of identifiers represented by the display list to an operation device, The operating device performs: a preparation process of receiving and storing the display list and the image data transmitted by the welding-side transmission process, and And a display process of displaying an image based on image data corresponding to the identifier indicated by the display list.

Description

Operation device, welding machine, image display method, and welding system The application is a divisional application of patent application (application No. 2022, 05 month and 23 days, international application No. PCT/JP2022/021054, 10 month and 25 days in 2023, enter China national stage, china national stage application No. 202280030863.6, and the application is named as operating equipment, welding machine, image display method and welding system). Technical Field The present disclosure relates to an operation device having an image display function, a welding machine operated by the operation device, an image display method for causing the operation device to display an image, and a welding system provided with the operation device and the welding machine. Background Patent document 1 discloses a welding system including a welding machine that transmits display data indicating the content of a selected welding condition item to an operation device, and the operation device displays a character symbol based on the display data transmitted from the welding machine. Prior art literature Patent literature Patent document 1 International publication No. 2009/122657 Disclosure of Invention Problems to be solved by the invention However, there is a desire to be able to perform operations of a plurality of types of welders requesting the operation devices to display images different from each other on 1 operation device. In addition, when a welder that requests an operation device to display a new image is to be developed in the future, it is desirable to be able to use the welder for operation without modifying the operation device. The present disclosure has been made in view of the above, and an object thereof is to enable operations of a plurality of types of welders that request operation devices to display images different from each other to be performed on 1 operation device, and to enable operations of the welders to be used without modifying the operation devices in the case where welders that request operation devices to display new images are developed in the future. Means for solving the problems In order to achieve the above object, the present disclosure relates to an operation device including an image display unit, an operation device side memory, and an operation device side control unit that performs a preparation process of receiving a display list of identifiers representing at least one image data and image data corresponding to at least a part of the identifiers represented by the display list from a welder and storing the image data in the operation device side memory, and a display process of reading the image data corresponding to the identifiers represented by the display list from the operation device side memory and causing the image display unit to display an image based on the read image data. Thus, since the operation devices receive the display list from the welder and display images based on the image data corresponding to the identifiers indicated by the display list, 1 operation device can be caused to display different images according to the kind of welder. Therefore, the operation of the welding machine requesting the operation device to display the plurality of kinds of images different from each other can be performed by 1 operation device. Further, since the operation device receives and stores image data from the welding machine and refers to the stored image data at the time of displaying an image, the operation device can be used for the operation of the welding machine without modifying the operation device when a welding machine requesting the operation device to display a new image is developed in the future. Effects of the invention According to the present disclosure, an operation of a welding machine that requests an operation device to display a plurality of kinds of images different from each other can be performed by 1 operation device, and in the case where a welding machine that requests an operation device to display a new image is developed in the future, the operation of the welding machine can be used without modifying the operation device.
