Main program A mode
Different welding tasks or positions on a workpiece demand various welding performances (operating
points) or welding programs. The following parameters are stored in each of the up to 16 programs:
• Operating
mode
• Welding
type
• Superpulses
(ON/OFF)
• Wire feed speed (DV2)
• Voltage
correction
(U2)
• Dynamics
(DYN2)
Example 1: Welding workpieces with different sheet metal thicknesses (non-latched)

NOTE
Up to 16 programs (P
A0
to P
A15
) can be defined.
An operating point (wire speed, arc length correction, dynamics/choke effect) can be defined
permanently in each program.
Program P0 is an exception: the settings for operating points are made manually here.
Changes to the welding parameters are saved immediately!
