6.  AC Welding Mode

  

Depressing the AC welding mode button will illuminate the 
green “AC ON” light indicating your Invertig 201 is in the AC 
welding mode. 

To turn the AC Welding Mode off, depress the AC Welding 
Mode button for at least 3 seconds until the green AC welding 
mode light goes out.

7. Welding Mode Switch

 

The welding mode push button allows you to selects the welding 
mode of your Invertig 201 AC/DC.
A)  Stick Welding – this mode is used when stick electrode  

 

 

welding.  The electrode will always be hot and the gas  

 

 

solenoid will not operate.  The green “Welding Current”    

 

lamp will be illuminated indicating the welding current  

 

is on.

B)  TIG 2T mode – With the torch trigger or foot pedal  

 

 

depressed, your Invertig 201 will start the arc.  When the    

 

trigger is released, the unit will stop.  Select this welding    

 

mode for operation with the foot pedal or the torch mounted  

 

amperage control.  This will generally be the most common  

 

mode of operation.

C)  TIG 4T mode – This is like a lock on trigger on a drill or    
 

grinder.  This mode is generally used with a TIG torch which  

 

has an trigger to start and stop the arc.  It is generally not    

 

used with a foot pedal or a torch mounted amperage control.  

When you depress the trigger on the torch, your Invertig 201 
provides pre-gas flow for as long as the trigger is depressed.  
When the trigger is released, it will slope up to the welding 
amperage that has been selected.  When the trigger is depressed 
again, the welding current will slope down to the final current.  
As long as the trigger is depressed, your Invertig 201 will 
continue to weld at the final current which has been selected.  
When the trigger is released, the arc will extinguish, and the post 
flow will start.

We do not recommend using the 4t mode with either the foot 
pedal or the torch mounted amperage control.

D)  TIG SPOT – the spot welding mode allows you to weld  
 

for between 0.1 and 10 seconds and then the unit will  

 

 

automatically stop.  This would be a good selection if you   

 

were performing a series of repetitive tack welds.

 

To select the spot welding time, adjust the “SPOT TIME”    

 

buttons (#7) up or down to select a time between 0.1sec and  

 

10.0 sec.  Touching the “SPOT TIME” button will display   

 

“Sl” for “Spot Time” in the “Volts” display (#4) and the    

 

actual spot welding time in the "Amps" display (#5).

E)  PROGRAM MODE – using a TIG torch which has a  

 

 

trigger switch, the program mode allows you to switch  

 

 

between 2 programmed welding amperages.

 

For example, lets say you have your welding current set at   

 

150 amps, and your “FINAL CURRENT” set at 50% or  

 

75 amps.  Depress the trigger and you have pre-gas flow for  

 

as long as you keep the trigger depressed.  Release the  

 

 

trigger and your TIG 201 will begin to weld at 150 amps.    

 

Depress and release the trigger and you will go to your final  

 

current of 75 amps.  Depress and release the trigger again    

 

and you will go back to 150 amps.  To stop welding, depress  

 

the trigger for 5 seconds or longer.  When the trigger is  

 

 

released the arc is extinguished and the machine will go into  

 

post gas flow.

8.  Adjustment Knob

 

This knob determines the welding amperage.  The amperage 
on your Invertig 201 can be adjusted from 5 to 200 amps.  The 
amperage is displayed in the digital display panel (#5) when the 
remote switch (#14) is off.

When using a remote amperage control, the amperage 
adjustment knob is used to select the maximum amperage 
for your particular welding application.  For example, when 
welding .050" 6061 alloy aluminum, I adjusted the amperage 
knob to 100 amps with the remote off.  This is about 20% more 
power than I will be welding the aluminum with.  I then turned 
the remote switch on (green “REMOTE ON” lamp is on) and 
the digital display showed the minimum amperage of 5 amps.   
If I were to depress the foot pedal completely, the maximum 
amperage would now be 100 amps.  

Setting the machine so the maximum amperage is 100 amps  
vs the maximum output of the machine of 200 amps, the pedal 
becomes less sensitive.  More of a movement in the pedal 
results in a smaller variance of the amperage, making it easier to 
control the heat and therefore easier to control your puddle.

9. SLOPE DOWN or SPOT TIME Button

  

When the Welding Mode is in the TIG 2T Mode, TIG 4T Mode, 
or the PROGRAM Mode, this button allows you to adjust the 
slope down time from 0.1 sec to 10 sec.  This is the amount 
of time it will take for the welding amperage to go from the 
welding amperage to the final current.  To adjust the “SLOPE 
DOWN” time, depress and release the “SLOPE DOWN” 
Button.  The “VOLTS” display will flash “SL” for slope, and 
the “AMPS” display will flash and display the slope down 
time in seconds.  While both displays are flashing, adjust the 
“AMPS” knob (#8) to set the slope down time.

NOTE: If you are using a torch mounted remote amperage 
control or a foot pedal, it is advisable to set the slope down time 
to 0.1 sec, as you are controlling the slope down manually with 
your remote amperage control or foot pedal.
