ABSTRACT

An example welding-type power supply includes: power conversion circuitry
configured to convert input power to welding-type output power; auxiliary
power output circuitry configured to output auxiliary power via an auxiliary
power connection; communications circuitry configured to communicate via the
auxiliary power connection; and processor(s) configured to: detect, via the
communications circuitry, that a robot control system is coupled to the
auxiliary power connection; and in response to detecting the robot control
system, configuring the welding-type power supply based on receiving a
communication from the robot control system via the communications circuitry.
