Definition of MIG/MAG welding tasks
This range of machines feature simple operation with a very wide range of functions.
• Various JOBs (i.e. welding tasks consisting of welding process, material type, wire diameter and
shielding gas type) have been pre-defined (see appendix for a list of JOBs).
• Simple JOB selection from a list of pre-defined JOBs (sticker on the machine).
• The required process parameters are calculated by the system depending on the operating point
specified (single-dial operation via wire speed rotary dial).
• Additional parameters can be modified as required in the configuration menu on the control or using
the PC300.NET welding parameter software.

• Select JOB (welding task) using the JOB list.
On decompact welding systems, the "JOB list" sticker is located on the inside on the wire feed unit
cover; with compact machines it is on the right-hand power source cover.
It is only possible to change the JOB number when no welding current is flowing.
