1 Preparation
• Switch off the welding machine.
• Unscrew the gas nozzle of the welding torch.
• Cut off the welding wire to be flush with the contact tip.
• Retract the welding wire a bit (approx. 50 mm) on the wire feeder. Now there should be no more
welding wire in the contact tip.
2 Configuration
• Press the "sequence parameter" push-button while simultaneously switching on the welding machine.
Release the "sequence parameter" push-button.
• The desired parameter can now be selected using the "sequence parameter" push-button. Parameter
rL1 must be aligned for all machine combinations. In case of welding systems with a second power
circuit
– if two wire feeders are to be operated from a single power source, for example – a second
alignment with parameter rL2 must be performed.
3 Alignment/measurement
• Applying slight pressure, put the welding torch in place with the contact tip on a clean, purged location
on the workpiece and then press the torch trigger for approx. 2 seconds. Short-circuit current flows
briefly, which is used to determine and display the cable resistance. The value can be between 0
mΩ
and 40
mΩ. The new value is immediately saved without requiring any further confirmation. If no value
is shown in the right display, then the measurement failed. The measurement must be repeated.
4 Restoring welding standby mode
• Switch off the welding machine.
• Screw the gas nozzle onto the welding torch.
• Switch on the welding machine
• Insert the welding wire.
