Figure 5.11: Gas-check zone
It contains components such as gas-check key and gas flow LED.
When pressing the gas-check key once, the gas path will be connected, and when pressing the key
again, the gas path will
be disconnected. The gas flow LED indicates the connection state of the
gas path.
Note: Users can stop gas flow by pushing the torch trigger in the gas-check state.
Figure 5.12: Channel key
In order to facilitate the simple and effective management o
n welding instructions, the machine
is equipped with 64 channels. A channel is an aggregate or a sequence of all parameters in a welding
instruction. A welding instruction includes parameters such as welding mode, base metal type,
gas type, wire type, operation mode, pre-flow time, initial current, initial speed, initial
voltage, upslope time, peak current, peak speed, thickness of base metal, arc characteristic,
peak voltage, spot welding time, downslope time, crater current, crater speed, crater voltage
and post-flow time. All these parameters constitute a process data channel or a channel for short.
Channels are indicated with channel numbers. Working channel means the channel being used
currently.
1)To access the channel management mode: Press the channel key in standby mode, the channel LED
will be on, and the channel management mode can be accessed.
2)
To view and change the working channel number: The machine will work in a certain working channel
(the working channel when the machine is shut down last time ) once it
can view the channel number, which will be displayed on the voltage column parameters display
meter, by pressing the channel key. And at this time, users can change the working channel number
by adjusting the knob.
3)To exit the channel management mode: Press the channel key or any other key, the channel LED
will be off, and the channel management mode will be exited.
4)To store parameters in channel: Parameters of the working channel will be saved into the
parameter storage automatically after welding, and users do not need to save it manually.
Note: Parameters will not be saved if users don’t weld after modifying.
5) Press channel key to start the machine, with front panel indicator and display lighting up,
which means all welding parameters are in default setting. Power off the machine to exit. Restart
the machine and operation can be carried out.
