Adjusting the current (amperage)
Turn the adjustment knob to adjust the current for your particular cutting application.
If the system is in manual mode, do the following to adjust the amperage.
1. Press the current/gas selector until the selection cursor is opposite the amperage setting in the status screen.
2. Turn the adjustment knob to change the amperage.
3. If you wish to exit manual mode, press the automatic/manual pressure setting mode selector. The LED goes off.
Note: When you exit manual mode, the gas pressure resets to the factory-optimized value.
When you switch between manual mode and automatic mode, the power supply retains the amperage setting. When
you reset the power, the power supply returns to the previous mode (automatic mode or manual mode) and remembers
the previous amperage setting.
