Functions

Other control functions - such as monitoring the weld-
ing process and controlling the system are accomplished 
using the 

iQ

 HMI or your computer and Dukane's 

iQ

 

Explorer

 software.

Stopping the Weld 

Cycle

Normal Conditions

The cycle stops when the programmed welding cycle ends 

or when the rear panel's 

Cycle Stop

 input is activated.

Emergency Conditions

If the generator's front panel power button is lighted, press 

the button so that the light goes out. 

In addition, you may push the power switch on the 

generator's rear panel to the OFF position.
