Display Trim as Volts
Option
Determines how trim is displayed
•
"No" (factory default) = The trim is displayed in the format defined in the
weld set.
•
"Yes" = All trim values are displayed as a voltage.
Note:
This option may not be available on all machines. The power source
must support this functionality, or this option will not appear in the menu.
P.22
Arc Start/Loss Error
Time
This option can be used to optionally shut off output if an arc is not established,
or is lost for a specified amount of time. Error 269 will be displayed if the
machine times out. If the value is set to OFF, machine output will not be turned
off if an arc is not established nor will output be turned off if an arc is lost. The
trigger can be used to hot feed the wire (default). If a value is set, the machine
output will shut off if an arc is not established within the specified amount of
time after the trigger is pulled or if the trigger remains pulled after an arc is lost.
To prevent nuisance errors, set Arc Start/Loss Error Time to an appropriate
value after considering all welding parameters (run-in wire feed speed, weld
wire feed speed, electrical stick out, etc). To prevent subsequent changes to
Arc Start/Loss Error Time, the setup menu should be locked out by setting
Preference Lock = Yes using the Power Wave Manager software.
Note:
This parameter is disabled while welding in Stick, TIG or Gouge.
P.25
Joystick Configuration
This option can be used to change the behavior of the left and right joystick
positions:
•
"Disable Joystick" = The joystick does not function.
•
"WFS/Trim" = The left and right joystick positions will adjust Arc Length
Trim, Arc Voltage, Power or STT
®
Background Current based on the
selected weld mode. For example, when a non-synergic STT
®
weld mode is
selected, the left and right joystick positions will adjust Background Current.
When a Power mode is selected, the left and right joystick positions will
adjust the Power (kW).
•
"WFS/Job"(memory) = The left and right joystick positions will:
••••
Select a user memory while not welding.
••••
Adjust Trim/Voltage/Power/STT Background Current while welding.
•
"WFS/Proced. A-B" = The left and right joystick positions will be used to
select procedure A and B, while welding and while not welding. The left
joystick position selects procedure A, the right joystick position selects
procedure B.
Note:
In all configurations other than "Disable Joystick", the up and down
joystick positions will adjust the wire feed speed, while welding and while not
welding.
P.28
Display Workpoint as
Amps Option
Determines how workpoint is displayed:
•
"No" (factory default) = The workpoint is displayed in the format defined in
the weld set.
•
"Yes" = All workpoint values are displayed as an amperage.
Note:
This option may not be available on all machines. The power source
must support this functionality, or this option will not appear in the menu
P.80
Sense From Studs
Use this option for diagnostic purposes only. When power is cycled, this option
is automatically reset to False.
•
"False" (default) = Voltage sensing is automatically determined by the
selected weld mode and other machine settings.
•
"True" = Voltage sensing is forced to "studs" of the power source.
P.81
Electrode Polarity
Used in place of DIP switches for configuration of the work and electrode sense
leads
•
"Positive" (default) = Most GMAW welding procedures use Electrode
Positive welding.
•
"Negative" = Most GTAW and some inner shield procedures use Electrode
Negative welding.
P.82
Voltage Sense Display
Allows viewing of Voltage Sense Lead Selection to aid in troubleshooting. The
configuration is displayed as a text string on the display whenever the output is
enabled. This parameter is not saved on a power cycle, but will be reset to
False
