select the appropriate device from the trigger mode
button (See Trigger mode descriptions above for details
on the difference). In stick mode the second button on
the control panel selects local or remote operation
manually. This is required so that the user does not
need to detach a foot amptrol to use the machine in
STICK mode.

Users Menu Setup Parameters
Many additional parameters can be modified via the Set
Up Menu. To access the Set Up Menu press and hold
the rotary encoder knob for several seconds until the
following screen appears (See figure B.7):
Figure B.7
Rotating the encoder knob will scroll through the setup
parameters shown in Table B.4. Selected parameters
are changed in one of two ways:
For parameters like background current (shown in Figure
B.7a) the change is made by the mode push button. In
this example you can toggle between setting background
current as either a % or as absolute amperage. Other
parameters like selectable wave shape (shown in Figure
B.7b) are changed by depressing the encoder knob until
the parameter is flashing. Rotating the knob changes
the parameter and then the change is saved by pressing
the encoder knob again. Once all changes are made
you can exitand save by pressing the exit icon button or
you can exit the set up menu without saving your
changes by depressing the hooked arrow button.
