TIG Gas Control
This option allows control over which gas solenoid actuates while TIG welding.
••••
"Valve (manual)" = No MIG solenoid will actuate while TIG welding, gas flow
is manually controlled by an external valve.
••••
"Feeder Solenoid" = The internal (feeder) MIG solenoid will turn on and off
automatically while TIG welding.
••••
"Pwr Src Solenoid" = Any gas solenoid connected to the power source will
turn on and off automatically while TIG welding. This selection will not
appear in the list if the power source does not support a gas solenoid.
Notes:
Preflow is not available while TIG welding. Postflow is available - the
same Postflow time will be used in MIG and TIG. When machine output on/off
is controlled via the upper right Control [10], gas flow will not start until the
tungsten touches the work. Gas flow will continue when the arc is broken until
the Postflow time expires. When machine output on/off is controlled via an arc
start switch or foot Amptrol, gas will begin flowing when the output is turned on
and will continue flowing until the output is turned off and the Postflow time
expires.
P.9
Crater Delay
This option is used to skip the Crater sequence when making short tack welds.
If the trigger is released before the timer expires, Crater will be bypassed and
the weld will end. If the trigger is released after the timer expires, the Crater
sequence will function normally (if enabled).
••••
OFF (0) to 10.0 seconds (default = Off)
P.14
Reset Consumable
Weight
Use this option to reset the initial weight of the consumable package.
•
"No" = Weight reset annulment.
•
"Yes" = Weight reset accept.
In addition it shows the current wire weight.
Note:
This option will only appear with systems using Production Monitoring.
P.16
Push-Pull Gun Control
Behavior
This option determines how the potentiometer on the Push/Pull torch will
behave.
••••
"Gun Pot Enabled" (default) = The welding wire feed speed is always
controlled by the potentiometer on the push-pull gun. The Left Control [9] is
only used to adjust Start and Crater wire feed speed.
••••
"Gun Pot Disabled" = The wire feed speed is always controlled by the Left
Control [9]. This setting is useful when the operator wishes to have wire
feed speed settings recalled from memories and not have the potentiometer
"overwrite" the setting.
••••
"Gun Pot Proc A" = When in procedure A, the welding wire feed speed is
controlled by the potentiometer on the push-pull gun. When in procedure B,
the welding wire feed speed is controlled by the Left Control [9]. This setting
allows a fixed wire feed speed to be selected in procedure B and not have
the potentiometer "overwrite" the setting when the procedure changes.
P.17
Remote Control Type
This option selects the type of analog remote control being used. Digital remote
control devices (those with a digital display) are configured automatically.
••••
"Push-Pull Gun" = Use this setting wile MIG welding with a push-pull gun
that uses a potentiometer for wire feed speed control (this setting is
backward compatible with "P.17 Gun Selection" = PushPull).
••••
"TIG Amp Control" = Use this setting while TIG welding with a foot or hand
current control device (Amptrol). While TIG welding, the upper left Control
on the User Interface sets the maximum current obtained when the TIG
amp control is at its maximum setting.
••••
"Stick/Gouge Rem." = Use this setting while stick welding or gouging with a
remote output control device. While stick welding, the upper left Control on
the User Interface sets the maximum current obtained when the stick
remote is at it’s maximum setting. While gouging, the upper left Control is
disabled and the gouging current is set on the remote control.
••••
"All Mode Remote" = This setting allows the remote control to function in all
weld modes which is how most machines with 6-pin and 7-pin remote
control connections operate.
••••
"Joystick MIG Gun" (European default) = Use this setting while MIG welding
with a push MIG gun with a joystick control. Stick, TIG and gouge welding
currents are set at the User Interface.
Note:
On machines that do not have a 12-pin connector, the "Joystick MIG
Gun" settings will not appear.
