Selecting programs with the standard torch trigger (P17)
Allows you to select a program or switch a program before starting welding.
You switch to the next program by tapping the torch trigger. Once the last enabled program is reached,
you start again at the beginning.
• Program 0 is the first enabled program, provided that it is not blocked.
(see also special parameter P2).
• The last enabled program is P15.
-
If the programs are not limited by special parameter P4 (see special parameter P4).
-
Or if the programs are limited for the selected JOB by the n cycle setting (see parameter P8).
• Welding starts when the torch trigger is held for longer than 0.64 s.
You can select programs with the standard torch trigger in all operating modes (non-latched, special non-
latched. latched and special latched).
Switching the operating mode and welding type using the wire feed control (P18)
Selecting the operating mode (non-latched, latched, etc.) and welding type (MIG/MAG standard
welding/pulse arc welding) at the wire feed unit control or the welding machine control.
• P18 = 0
-
Program 0: To select the operating mode and welding type at the wire feed unit.
-
Program 1-15: To select the operating mode and welding type at the welding machine.
• P18 = 1
-
Program 0-15: To select the operating mode and welding type at the wire feed unit.
Mean value display for superPuls (P19)
Function active (P19 = 1)
• For superPuls, the performance
mean value
from program A (P
A
) and program B (P
B
) is shown on the
display (ex factory).
Function inactive (P19 = 0)
• Only the performance of program A is displayed for superPuls.
If the function is enabled and only "000" is shown on the machine display, this is a rare case of
an incompatible system set-up. Solution: Disable special parameter P19.
Predefined execution of the pulsed arc welding process in the PA program (P20)
For machine versions with pulsed arc welding procedures only.
Function active (P20 = 1)
• If the superPuls and welding process switching functions are available and activated, the pulse arc
welding process is always executed in the main program PA (ex factory).
Function inactive (P20 = 0)
• Predefined execution of the pulse arc welding process in the PA program is disabled.
