P.0
The Menu Exit
Enables exit from menu
P.1
Wire Feed Speed (WFS)
units
Enables change WFS units:
•
"Metric" (factory default) = m/min;
•
"English" = in/min.
P.4
Recall Memory with
Trigger
(PF46 only)
This option allows a memory to be recalled by quickly pulling and releasing the
gun trigger:
•
"Enable" = Selecting memories 2 through 9 by quickly pulling and releasing
the gun trigger. To recall a memory with the gun trigger, quickly pull and
release the trigger the number of times that correspond to the memory
number. For example, to recall memory 3, quickly pull and release the
trigger 3 times. Trigger memory recall can only be performed when the
system is not welding.
•
"Disable" (factory default) = Memory selection is performed only by the
Panel Buttons.
P.5
Procedure Change
Method
(PF46 only)
This option selects how remote procedure selection (A/B) will be made. The
following methods can be used to remotely change the selected procedure:
••••
"External Switch" (factory default) = Dual Procedure selection may only be
performed by the Cross-switch gun or remote control.
••••
"Quick Trigger" = Allows switching between Procedure A and procedure B
while welding with 2-stroke mode. The Cross-switch gun or remote control
is required. To operate:
Select " WFS/Proced. A-B" in P.25 to set up parameters for A and B
procedures.
Start the weld by pulling the gun trigger. The system will weld with
procedure A settings.
While welding, quickly release and then pull the gun trigger. The
system will switch to procedure B settings. Repeat to switch back to
procedure A settings. The procedure can be changed as many times
as needed during the weld.
Release the trigger to stop welding. When the next weld is made, the
system will start again with procedure A.
••••
"IntegralTrigProc" = Allows switching between Procedure A and procedure
B while welding with 4-stroke mode. When in 2-step, the system operates
identical to the External Switch selection. To operate in 4-step:
Select " WFS/Proced. A-B" in P.25 to set up parameters for A and B
procedures.
Start the weld by pulling the gun trigger. The system will weld with
procedure A settings.
While welding, quickly release and then pull the gun trigger. The
system will switch to procedure B settings. Repeat to switch back to
procedure A settings. The procedure can be changed as many times
as needed during the weld.
Release the trigger to stop welding. When the next weld is made, the
system will start again with procedure A.
P.7
Gun Offset Adjustment
This option adjusts the wire feed speed calibration of the pull motor of a push-
pull gun. This should only be performed when other possible corrections do not
solve any push-pull feeding problems. An rpm meter is required to perform the
pull gun motor offset calibration. To perform the calibration procedure do the
following:
1. Release the pressure arm on both the pull and push wire drives.
2. Set the wire feed speed to 200 ipm.
3. Remove wire from the pull wire drive.
4. Hold an rpm meter to the drive roll in the pull gun.
5. Pull the trigger on the push-pull gun.
6. Measure the rpm of the pull motor. The rpm should be between 115
and 125 rpm. If necessary, decrease the calibration setting to slow the
pull motor, or increase the calibration setting to speed up the motor.
•
The calibration range is -30 to +30, with 0 as the default value.
