OPERATION
B-18
The Limits feature allows the operator to set minimum
and maximum values for various parameters depending
on the Weld Mode selected.
Each memory location may have a different set of limits,
even if the Weld Mode is the same. For example:
Memory Location 1 can be set for a maximum wire feed
speed of 140”/min; Memory Location 2 may be set for a
minimum of 100”/min and a maximum of 160”/min and
Memory Location 3 may have no WFS limit set.
Parameters are constrained by the machine limitations or
by memory limits. When the Memory Limits are enabled
the parameter will flash if an attempt is made to set a
value outside of the prescribed limit (if less than the
machine capabilities). The parameter will not flash if an
attempt is made to exceed the machine limits.
NOTE:
Weld Modes cannot be selected through the
Limits Setup Menu. They must be chosen and
saved before entering the Limits Menu.
