HOT START INDICATOR LIGHT
In the stick mode only, use one of the FUNCTIONAL CONTROL INDEX BUTTONS to turn on the
HOT START indicator light. The functional control knob can then be used to increase or decrease
the hot start amperage setting as indicated on the Digital Amperage Display. Hot Start that is
increased will generally result in better arc starting on hard to start electrodes.
INITIAL CURRENT INDICATOR LIGHT
In the TIG mode only, and when the SEQR indicator light is on, use one of the FUNCTIONAL
CONTROL INDEX BUTTONS to turn on the INITIAL CURRENT indicator light. The FUNCTIONAL
CONTROL KNOB can then be used to increase or decrease the starting amperage setting, as
indicated in the Digital Amperage Display, for your sequenced weld. This setting helps to establish
an arc. During a sequenced weld, this amperage setting will remain constant until you activate the
upslope with the remote control.
UPSLOPE INDICATOR LIGHT
In the TIG mode only, and when the SEQR indicator light is on, use one of the FUNCTIONAL
CONTROL INDEX BUTTONS to turn on the UP SLOPE indicator light. The FUNCTIONAL
CONTROL KNOB can then be used to increase or decrease the amount of time it takes to go from
initial current to welding current during your sequenced weld. The functional control display indicator
light SEC will be on indicating the set value in the Digital Functional Control Display. This setting
helps to establish a smooth transition between the initial current and the welding current.
WELDING CURRENT INDICATOR LIGHT
Use one of the FUNCTIONAL CONTROL INDEX BUTTONS until the WELDING CURRENT
indicator light is on. The FUNCTIONAL CONTROL KNOB can then be used to increase or decrease
the welding amperage setting, as indicated in the Digital Amperage Display. During a sequenced
weld, this amperage setting will remain constant until you activate the down slope with the remote
control. The Welding Current Setting is not used in Pulse TIG. Peak Current will be set in Pulse TIG.
PEAK CURRENT INDICATOR LIGHT
In the TIG mode only, when the PULSE indicator light is on, use one of the FUNCTIONAL
CONTROL INDEX BUTTONS to turn on the PEAK CURRENT indicator light.
The functional control knob can then be used to increase or decrease the peak amperage setting,
as indicated in the Digital Amperage Display. Peak amperage can be used in the pulse mode using
the remote foot pedal or when performing a sequenced weld.
NOTE: When using a foot pedal, Peak Current is not preset. The Peak Current is controlled by the
foot pedal. While welding, depress the foot pedal more to increase the Peak Current. Or, let up on
the foot pedal to decrease Peak Current.
PULSE WIDTH INDICATOR LIGHT
In the TIG mode only, when the PULSE indicator light is on, use one of the FUNCTIONAL
CONTROL INDEX BUTTONS to turn on the PULSE WIDTH indicator light. The functional control
knob can then be used to increase or decrease the pulse width setting. The functional control
display indicator light % will be on indicating the set value in the Digital Functional Control Display.
Pulse width can be used in the pulse mode using the remote foot pedal or when performing a
sequenced weld. In general, a higher Pulse Width % will result in a hotter weld, making the puddle
more fluid and increasing penetration. Reduce this setting if burn-though is occurring.
FREQUENCY INDICATOR LIGHT
In the TIG mode only, when the PULSE indicator light is on, use one of the FUNCTIONAL
CONTROL INDEX BUTTONS to turn on the FREQUENCY indicator light. The functional control
