6.6 Setting Welding Conditions
This section explains how to set the welding conditions (welding mode or welding parameters).
6.6.1
Welding mode setting
Depending on the type of shield gas, wire material, etc., there are modes that can be combined and modes that cannot be
combined.
Available combination of the welding mode is listed in the table below.
6.6.2
Setting welding conditions
Set the welding conditions with HOME screen and screen operation knob.

*3: In the welding of DC low spattering, the following devices are necessary for wire feeder and welding torch. For details, refer to the
instruction manual of each device.
•
Wire feeder: CM-743U with voltage detection adaptor kit (K5975V00)
•
Welding torch: BT3500V-30 or BT3510V-30
