CHOOSING THE SETTINGS
Unit

Hot Start
%
Hot Start is a feature that delivers an overcurrent upon ignition to prevent the electrode from sticking to the
workpiece. The voltage (% of welding current) and time (seconds) can both be set.
Hot Start duration
s
Welding current
A
The welding current is set according to the selected electrode’s diameter and type (refer to the electrode’s
packaging).
Cooling current
%
Second «cold» welding current.
Arc Force
%
Arc Force is an overcurrent delivered to prevent the electrode or molten metal from sticking it touches the weld
pool.
AC waveform
%
Waveform in AC. A trapezoid (or Christmas tree) motion is recommended.
Welding frequency
Hz
Polarity reversal welding fre or -
Pulse
frequency
Hz
Pulse mode pulse frequency.
Accessing certain welding parameters is dependent on the selected display mode: Settings/Display mode: Easy, Expert or Advanced. Refer to the
HMI manual.
ADJUSTING THE WELDING CURRENT
The following settings correspond to the available current range depending on the type and diameter of the electrode. These ranges are quite wide as
they depend on the application as well as the welding position.

ADJUSTING ARC FORCE
It is advisable to set the Arc Force to the middle position (0) when starting to weld and to adjust it according to the welding results and the user’s pre
-
ferences. Note: the Arc Force setting range is determined by the type of electrode selected.
HOT START SETTINGS
It is advisable to set the Hot Start feature low for thin sheet metal and to set it high for thicker and more difficult sheet metal (dirty or oxidised parts).
ENERGY
In addition to the weld bead’s energy reading after welding, this mode, developed for welding with DMOS-supported energy control, allows the user
to change the following settings:
- The thermal coefficient according to the standard used: 1 for ASME standards and 0.6 (TIG) or 0.8 (MMA) for European standards. The displayed
energy is calculated taking into account this coefficient.
- The weld bead’s length (OFF - mm): If a length is recorded, then the energy display is no longer in joules, but in joules/mm (the unit in the display
«J» will flash).
SAVING AND RECALLING JOBS
Accessible through the «JOB» icon on the main screen.
The active settings are automatically saved and recalled the next time you turn on the machine.
In addition to the active settings, it is possible to save and recall»JOB» configurations.
There are 500 JOBS for TIG welding processes and 200 for MMA welding processes. Memory storage is based on the current process settings, the
active settings and the user profile.
JOB mode
JOB mode allows you to create, save, recall and delete JOBs.
Quick Load
- Recall JOBs from the trigger when not welding.
Quick Load is a non-welding JOB recall mode (20 JOBs max.) and is only available for TIG processes.
From a list of previously created JOBs, JOB recalls are done by short trigger presses. All trigger modes and welding modes are supported.
