(6) "Process" button
***)
for selecting the welding process
MANUAL - MIG/MAG standard manual welding
SYNERGIC - MIG/MAG standard synergic welding
STICK - Manual metal arc welding
(7) "Mode" button
for selecting the operating mode
2 T - 2-step mode
4 T - 4-step mode
S 4 T - Special 4-step mode
(8) "Shielding gas" button
for selecting the shielding gas to be used. Parameter SP is reserved for additional
shielding gases.
When a shielding gas is selected, the LED behind the relevant shielding gas lights
up.
(9) "Wire diameter" button
for selecting the wire diameter to be used. Parameter SP is reserved for additional
wire diameters.
When a wire diameter is selected, the LED behind the relevant wire diameter lights
up.
(10) "Material" button
for selecting the filler metal to be used. Parameter SP is reserved for additional filler
metals.
When a material is selected, the LED behind the relevant filler metal lights up.
(11) Intermediate arc indicator
A spatter-prone "intermediate arc" occurs between the dip transfer arc and the
spray arc. To alert you to this critical area - and help you avoid it - the intermediate
arc indicator lights up.
(12) HOLD indicator
At the end of each welding operation, the actual values for welding current and
welding voltage are stored, and the "HOLD" indicator lights up.
*) If one of these parameters is selected in the MIG/MAG standard synergic welding
process, then the synergic function ensures that all other parameters, including the
welding voltage parameter, are adjusted automatically.
**) The Real Energy Input display must be activated in level 2 of the Setup menu –
EnE parameter. The value continuously rises during welding in line with the perma-
nently increasing energy yield. The final value at the end of welding remains stored
until welding starts again or the power source is switched back on - the "HOLD"
indicator lights up.
***) In conjunction with the VRD option, the currently selected welding process indica-
tor is simultaneously an additional indicator:
-
The indicator is permanently lit: the Voltage Reduction Device (VRD) is active
and is limiting the output power to less than 35 V.
- The indicator starts to flash as soon as a welding action starts in which the out-
put voltage can exceed 35 V.
