4.3.3.7  Welding parameter ignition time "tZn" diagram 

The arc striking is positively affected by the adjustable ignition time. After the arc striking, the wire feeder 

continues operating in wire creep speed for the set ignition time. This behaviour occurs whenever the 

pause time between the welding operations is at least 1.5 seconds. The ignition time can be set in the 

Expert menu using parameter tZn.
