Machine display
The following welding parameters can be displayed before (nominal values), during (actual values) or af-
ter welding (hold values):
"left display"

When the hold values are displayed after welding and the settings are then changed (e.g. welding cur-
rent), the display will switch to the relevant nominal values.

The parameters that can be set in the function sequence of the machine control depend on the selected
welding task. This means that if for example you have not selected a pulse variant, then you cannot set
any pulse times in the function sequence.
4.2.1
Setting the welding current (absolute/percentage)
The welding current for the ignition, secondary, end and hot start current can be set as a percentage of
the main current AMP or as an absolute value. To select, use the parameter
<dg in the configuration

Operating the machine control
4.3.1
Main screen
The machine control switches to the main screen after it has been turned on or a setting has been com-
pleted. This means that the previously selected settings (indicated by signal lights where applicable) and
the nominal value for the current (A) are displayed in the left-hand welding data display. Depending on
the selection, the right-hand display shows the welding voltage (V) nominal value or the welding power
(kW) actual value. The control always switches back to the main screen after 4 sec..
4.3.2
Welding power setting
The welding power is set using the control button. You can also adjust the parameters in the operation
sequence or settings in the different machine menus.
