proportional to inductance. Therefore, increasing
UltimArc™ Control greater than 0.0 results in a crisper
arc (more spatter) while decreasing the UltimArc™
Control to less than 0.0 provides a softer arc (less
spatter).
Synergic CV programs feature an ideal voltage best
suited for most procedures. Use this voltage as a
starting point and adjust if needed for personal
preferences.
When the voltage knob is rotated, the display will show
an upper or lower bar indicating if the voltage is
above or below the ideal voltage.
•
Preset voltage above ideal
voltage (upper bar

•
Preset voltage at ideal
voltage (no bar displayed).
•
Preset voltage below ideal
voltage (lower bar
displayed).

Steel and Stainless Synergic GMAW-P
(Pulsed MIG)
Pulse welding modes are synergic; using wire feed
speed as the main control parameter. As the wire feed
speed is adjusted, the power source adjusts the
waveform parameters to maintain good welding
characteristics. Trim is used as a secondary control to
change the arc length for material conditions or
individual preference (see figure 6).

UltimArc™ Control
UltimArc™ Control adjusts the focus or shape of the arc.
UltimArc™ Control is adjustable from -10.0 to +10.0 with
a nominal setting of 0.0. Increasing the arc control
increases the pulse frequency and background current
while decreasing the peak current.
This results in a tight, stiff arc used for high speed sheet
metal welding. Decreasing the arc control decreases the
pulse frequency and background current while
increasing the peak current. This results in a soft arc
good for out of position welding.

The Power Wave utilizes adaptive control to compensate
for changes in the electrical stick-out (distance from the
contact tip to the work piece) while welding. The Power
Wave waveforms are optimized for a 1,6 to 1,9mm stick
out depending on the wire type and wire feed speed.
The adaptive behaviour supports a range of stick outs
from approximately 1,27 to 3,1mm. At low or high wire
feed speeds, the adaptive range may be less due to
physical limitations of the welding process.
