6.1. SWITCHING TO THE REQUIRED FUNCTION
When button
5
on the front panel is pressed and held in the pressed state, the digital
display shows the designation of the current function. When the button is released, the
digital display shows the current value of this function. The value may be increased or
decreased by buttons
3
. By pressing and releasing button
5
fast, it is possible to
sequentially switch to the next function.
WARNING!
If button 5 is pressed and held down, the display will blink
once approximately after 3.5 s. The blinking means that the button
should be released; otherwise, the welding unit will be ready to switch
to the next welding process
(see Section 6.2).
6.2. SWITCHING TO THE REQUIRED WELDING PROCESS
When button
5
is pressed and held for more than
5 s
, the digital display will blink. The
blinking means that, when the button is released, the welding unit will switch to the next
welding process. The switching is provided sequentially and selection of the welding
processes is indicated by lamps
4
on the front panel. This switching process may appear
to be lengthy, but it should be noted that this process is not often required in operating the
welding unit.
WARNING!
If button 5 is held for more than 12 s, the display will
show readouts 333 … 222 … 111 … 000. In this state, release the
button before the end of the readout indication period (000);
otherwise, all the values of the functions and parameters of the
welding unit will return to the default factory values set for the
current welding process
(see Section 6.3)
6.3. RETURN OF THE VALUES OF THE FUNCTIONS AND
PARAMETERS OF THE WELDING UNIT TO THE DEFAULT
FACTORY VALUES SET FOR THE CURRENT WELDING
PROCESS
There might be conditions when the operator cannot set the welding unit parameters
properly. In this case, press button 5 and hold it for more than 12 s. At the 5th second, the
welding unit will be ready to switch to the next welding process. Nevertheless, hold the
button. After 5 seconds, the display will show readouts 333 … 222 … 111 … 000. When
the readout is 000, the values of the functions and parameters of the welding unit will
return to the default factory set values. These operations for setting default parameter
values should be performed individually for all the welding processes of the welding unit.
