To choose the welding start mode,
2T, 4T or 3L, select
the corresponding symbol.
Mode 2T.
The machine begins welding when the torch trigger is
pressed, and stops when released. With mode
2T , you
can also choose the parameter
HSA
(Automatic Hot Start)
and the parameter
CRA
(Final Crater filler).
The 2 parameters
HSA and CRA can be enabled at the
same time, or individually.
Once the parameter
HSA
has been enabled, the opera-
tor can adjust the
Start current from 10 to 200% of the
welding current.
The
Current time can also be adjusted from 0.1 to 10
seconds. The
Connection time between the Start cur-
rent and the welding current can also be adjusted from 0.1
to 10 seconds. To adjust
Start current values, Current
time and Connection time, enter Main Menu by select-
ing the key
F
MENU
and using the key
PARAMETERS
enter
the
process parameters menu. Turn knob 2 to select
the parameter, press it to enter the regulation screen and
turn it to adjust the value.
Press that key

ters.
After activating the param-
eter
CRA
, the operator can
adjust the
connection time
between the welding current
and the
crater filling current
(Crater Current) from 0.1 to
10 seconds. The operator can also adjust the
crater filling
current from 10 to 200% of the welding current.
The duration of this current can also be adjusted from 0.1 to
10 seconds of the
Crater filling time
.
To adjust the values of

Mode 4T.
To begin welding press and release the torch trigger; to
stop welding press and release it again. Together with
mode 4T you may also select function HSA (automatic
hot start) and function
CRA
(final crater filling). (See
2T
Mode).
Mode 3L.
Specially well suited to weld aluminium. The
HSA and
CRA functions are inhibited when mode 3L is activated.
3 currents are available that can be used in welding by
means of the welding torch start key.
The current and the connection time values are set as
follows:
Start Current. Start current, adjustable from 10 to 200%
of set welding current.
Connection Time. Possibility of adjusting from 0.1 to
10 seconds. Defines the connection time between
Start
Current and
welding current
and between
welding
current and
crater filling current
(crater filling at the
welding end)
Crater current may be adjusted from 10 to 200% of set
welding current.
Welding starts at the welding torch key pressure.
The recalled current will be the
Start current.
This current is kept as long as the welding torch trigger
is held down; when the welding torch trigger is released
this current connects to the welding current, which is
