- Setting of gas post-flow time performed in the SETTINGS MENU.
Changing trigger data
Using this function, it is possible to switch to various pre-set welding data alternatives by
double-clicking on the welding blowpipe's trigger.
Switching takes place between the memory positions 1, 2 and 3, see the “MEMORY
MANAGEMENT”. If there is no data in memory position 2, switching takes place instead
between positions 1 and 3.
ON - Switching between memory positions can take place before, after or during welding.
ARC OFF - Switching between memory positions can only take place before or after
welding.
OFF - Switching between memory positions can not be done using welding blowpipe's
trigger.
- Activation of trigger data switching performed in the SETTINGS MENU.
AVC feeder
When this function is activated it is possible to use an Arc Voltage Controlled or Off-The-Arc
feeder, where the arc voltage from the power source is used to power the feed unit.
- Activation of AVC feeder performed in the PROCESS MENU.
Spot welding
Select Spot welding when you want to spot-weld thin metal sheets.
- Activation and setting of Spot welding is performed in the SETTINGS MENU.
Voltage
A higher voltage gives a longer arc, with a hotter and wider weld pool.
Irrespective of which menu is displayed, the setting value for the voltage can always be
changed. The value is displayed in the MAIN MENU or SELECT MENU.
Wire feed speed
The wire feed speed is the speed at which the filler wire is supplied, measured in m/min
(in./min).
Irrespective of which menu is displayed, the setting value for the wire feed speed can always
be changed. The value is displayed in the MAIN MENU or SELECT MENU.
Pinch-off / final pulse
Pinch-off pulse is a pulse that is applied to ensure that a ball is not formed on the wire when
welding stops. Applies to MIG/MAG welding with short/spray arc and short pulsing. When
pulsing, completion is synchronised with a pulse, finishing pulse, which can be set between
0% and 100%.
