t2: Arc is ignited and the output current rises to the setting welding current (Iw or Ib)
from the min welding current.

t3: During the whole welding process, the gun switch is pressed and held without
releasing.
Note: Select the pulsed output, the base current and welding current will be outputted
alternately; otherwise, output the setting value of welding current;
t3:
Release the gun switch, the welding current will drop in accordance with the
selected down-slope time.

t4: The current drops to the minimum welding current from the setting current (Iw or
Ib), and then arc is turned off.

t5: Post-gas time, after the arc is turned off. You can adjust it (0.1~10s) through
turning the knob on the front panel.
t5:
electromagnetic gas valve turned off, the shield gas stops to flow, and welding is
finished.
