5.2.3 Welding task selection
The following steps have to be carried out to select the welding job:
• Select basic parameters (material type, wire diameter and shielding gas type) and welding procedures
(select and enter JOB number by means of JOB-List
> see 7.1 chapter
).
• Select operating and welding type
• Adjust welding power
• Correct arc length and dynamics if necessary
5.2.4 Basic welding parameters
The user must first determine the basic parameters (material type, wire diameter and shielding gas type)
of the welding system. These basic parameters are then compared with the welding job list (JOB-LIST).
The combination of the basic parameters gives a JOB number, which must now be entered on the control
unit. This basic setting must be rechecked or adjusted only when changing the wire or gas.
The range of functions depends on the machine series:
