USING THE DIGITAL PANEL 

 

1. Setting welding parameters 

Set welding parameters using the 

“FUNCTION”

 (2) keys. For each function selected, the present value appears on 

the 

DISPLAY (7)

 and the LED of the corresponding icon turns on. 

Press 

“ENTER”:

 

the measurement symbol flashes. Set the new value with the “

+

” and “

-

“ touch buttons. 

Press 

“ENTER”

 

to confirm and move on to the next function with the “

+

” button. 

The 

KNOB (3)

 rules over the maximum current output. 

 

2. Pulse 

With  the 

PULSE

  function  selected,  the  display  prompts  for 

ON/OFF

;  select  the  desired  mode  with  the 

“ENTER”

 

button.  In  the  ON  mode,  the  pulsing 

DUTY  CYCLE

  can  be  varied  between 

30%

  and 

80%

,  and  the  frequency 

between 

1

 and 

175Hz

. Maximum current output is set with the 

Knob (3)

, meanwhile the minimum is the 

“BASE”

 

3. Choice of welding procedure 

Once programming is ended, 6 different procedures can be selected: 

STICK (ELECTRODE) 
STICK + ARC FORCE (ELECTRODE WITH OVERCURRENT)

 

TIG 2T HF (TIG WELDING IN 2 STEP WITH HF) 
TIG 4T HF (TIG WELDING IN 4 STEP WITH HF) 
TIG 2T NO HF (TIG WELDING IN 2 STEP WITHOUT HF) 
TIG 4T NO HF (TIG WELDING IN 4 STEP WITHOUT HF).

 

The procedure selected appears on the display and the LED of the corresponding icon turns on. 
Begin welding. The 

“PREVIEW”

 display changes to 

“WELDING”

 and the current shown is what is actually output*. 

 
* In TIG PULSE, the display shows “PREVIEW” and the ammeter shows the maximum current set. 
 
 

4. Program memories 

When  there  are  several,  repetitive  welding  jobs  to  be  done,  or  different  operators  are  doing  jobs  with  the  same 
machine, the group of parameters used can be saved in the memory, then called up at any time. 

ENTERING DATA IN THE MEMORY: 

Set the welding parameters as shown in 

(1) above

Press the 

“MEM, R”

 (READ MEMORY) button; select a number from 2 to 18 with the 

+

 and 

  buttons.

  

Press the 

“MEM, W”

 (WRITE MEMORY) button. 

 

READING THE MEMORY 

Welding programs that are memorised can easily be called up. 
Press the 

“MEM, R”

 (READ MEMORY) button; the display will show a number from 1 to 18. 

Change the number, if necessary, with the 

+

 and 

  buttons. 

Press the 

“MEM, R”

 button again, to confirm the selection. 

If  any  of  the  parameters  value  is  changed  while  a  memory  is  being  used,  by  the  next  welding  session  these  will 
automatically replace the preceding ones.  
 

5. Remote and Foot control 

Once the 

REMOTE CONTROL

 (or 

Foot Control

) is connected to the socket 

(6)

, output current regulation will be 

automatically transferred from the 

KNOB

 

(3)

 to these controls. 

WARNING:

 For remote or foot control operation, the 

SLOPE-UP

 and 

SLOPE-DOWN

 times must be set  to zero (

0)

 

 

6. Overheating 

Particularly  high  environment  temperatures,  when  combined  with  heavy-duty  machine  jobs,  may  cause  the  word 

“OVERLOAD”

 appearing on the display; this means that the generator has been overheated. 

At the end of the cooling cycle, the indicator automatically returns to 

“PREVIEW”
