4.3 Switch on
The TIGER welding system is started with the mains switch. All LEDs illuminate
for approximately 1 second. Next the software version and the machine type are
displayed in the digital display for approximately 3 seconds. After 3 seconds
expires all of the settings from the last welding process are run through in
sequence and the set values displayed. This process can naturally be interrupted
at any time. This is done by pushing any control or a torch button. The welding
system is now ready for operation.
4.4 Peculiarities of the operating panel
The processor control provides active support to facilitate faster and easier
operation:
All set parameters are saved when the unit is switched off at the mains switch.
When the unit is switched back on the parameters used during the last welding
process are set. An arc must be struck for any changes to the parameters to be
saved when the unit is switched off.
Only the current parameters are shown, for example if the TIG parameters when
electrode welding are 2/4 cycle, HF on/off etc., is suppressed. This also applies
to the parameters for frequency and balance when DC welding.
After switching on the unit all settings are run through sequentially and the set
values displayed. This gives an immediate overview. This process can naturally
be interrupted at any time. This is done by pushing any control or a torch button.
If the rotary switch [8] or button is not actuated for 20 seconds, then the unit
returns automatically to welding current I1. The basic state therefore always
displays the most important values; current I1 and the same starting position
when operating.
