6. SETTING THE WELDING UNIT
When no button on the front panel of the welding unit is pressed, the digital display of the unit shows the
value of the basic parameter of the current welding process:
1.
Welding current in the manual arc welding process
(MMA)
2.
Welding current in the argon shielded tungsten-arc welding process
(TIG)
3.
Welding voltage in the semiautomatic arc welding process
(MIG/MAG)
4.
Welding wire speed in the semiautomatic arc welding process
(MIG/MAG)
The buttons
(1)
on the front panel are responsible for changing the value of the selected function or basic
welding parameter.
The button
(3)
on the front panel of the source is responsible for the following:
1.
The choice of any function in the current welding method to unblock the devices should be kept
pressed button for more than 5 seconds.
2.
Resetting all functions to the factory settings in the welding method being used should be kept
pressed for more than 10 seconds; (The device does not reset the settings in other methods).
The button
(4)
on the front panel of the multifunction machine is responsible for the following:
1.
The choice of welding method (quick press);
The button
(11)
on the front panel of the source is responsible for the following:
1.
The choice of any feeder function in the
MIG/MAG
welding method, in order to unblock the
feeder, keep the button
(11)
pressed for more than 5 seconds.
Buttons
(7)
on the front panel are designed for changing the value of the function or basic parameter of
wire feeder.
6.1. SWITCHING TO THE REQUIRED FUNCTION
To enter the advanced settings of the device function, keep the button
(3)
pressed for more than
5 seconds. After pressing the button
(3)
, the graphical name of the current function will be shown on the
display. After releasing the button, the display will show the standard value of this function, which can be
increased or decreased using the buttons
(1).
In the situation of fast pressing and releasing the button
(3)
,
you can switch over to the next functions of the welder in the circle, the same situation applies to the
button
(11)
on the wire feeder, the adjustment takes place via the buttons
(7).
6.2. SWITCHING TO THE REQUIRED WELDING PROCESS
By pressing button (4), the device switches to the next welding method. The methods switch over in
circles, you can see it on the front panel.
ATTENTION!
If button
(3)
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. RESETTING ALL FUNCTIONS CURRENT WELDING METHOD
There might be conditions when the operator cannot set the welding unit parameters properly. In this
case, press button
(3)
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.
