MIG WELDING OPERATION
MIG MODE USER INTERFACE OPERATION
The Eastwood Elite AC/DC MP200i has several configurable and preset options to help
you succeed in welding. The adjustments available in MIG mode are detailed below.
DEFAULT VIEW
The default view in MIG mode
(FIG 16)
shows the Welder’s set voltage and wire speed
in inches per minute. Rotate the
Adjustment Knob
to fine-adjust parameters. Press the
knob and rotate to make coarse adjustments.
•
WIRE SPEED:
Rotating the
Adjustment Knob
will adjust the wire speed.
The number will blink while being adjusted.
•
Voltage:
Pressing the
Menu Button
switch to voltage adjustment. The number
will blink while being adjusted. Press the
Menu Button
again to switch back to wire speed.
USER MENU
Long pressing the
Menu Button
(holding it for three seconds) will open the User Menu where the below settings can be adjusted. Pressing the
Menu Button
will
cycle through them and scrolling the Adjustment Knob will change them. To save and exit automatically, do not adjust anything for five seconds and it will return
to the default view.
•
PROCESS:
The first option shown is the process selection. Here you can select:
-
C25:
Standard mode for solid wire MIG welding with a 75% Argon / 25% CO2 gas mixture.
-
C100:
Alternate solid wire welding profile for use with 100% CO2 gas MIG welding. It is designed to compensate for the hotter welding with this gas.
-
FLUX:
For gasless welding utilizing flux-cored wire. Automatically swaps polarity to DCEN.
-
ALUM:
Spool Gun mode for MIG welding aluminum with a #20172 Spool Gun.
•
WIRE DIAM:
Select the wire diameter, in inches, you are utilizing.
•
INDU:
The inductance setting controls the rate of current rise following the short-circuit state, that is, during the time when the wire is short circuiting into
the weld puddle. This setting affects arc time too, that is, the amount of time the short circuit cycle spends arcing and providing heat to the puddle. Higher
inductance settings increase the time of each individual arc cycle and therefore can improve the wetting of a puddle. This produces a “softer” puddle
which is excellent for smooth fillet welds. Lower inductance settings increase the frequency of each short circuit/arc cycle and can be useful for pinpoint-
ing a narrow bead in some joints. It offers greater penetration; however, it will produce more spatter.
•
FACT DFLT:
Setting to
YES
and pressing the
Mode Selection Button
to confirm will return settings to factory defaults. These defaults will take the Welder
back to good weld settings for 1/8” material. Factory default settings are:
-
Voltage:
19.0V
-
Wire Speed:
280 IPM
-
Process:
C25
-
Wire Diameter:
0.030”
-
Inductance:
0%
