4.3.3.1 Welding task selection
This microprocessor-controlled control works according to the one-dial operation principle.
Only the gas type, material type and wire electrode diameter should be set as the JOB number on the
control, as well as welding output via the step switch. This defines the welding task and the system speci-
fies the optimum wire feed speed for the required operating point after the "Test button" is pressed.
These settings are retained after the machine is switched off. After switching on again, the parameters
previously set can be used to continue welding.
The user has the option to correct the wire feed speed according to the welding task or individual require-
ments.
The welding task setting can also be made using the two-dial operation principle, however. To do this, set
the "JOB 0" (manual / no program) from the JOB list, the welding voltage on the step switch, and the wire
speed on the rotary dial. Other parameters are set as described under "Using synergic mode".
