7-3. Setting A Start Sequence In Synergic Pulse
To turn on a Start sequence, press the
START
button. The
START ON
INDICATOR
will illuminate indicating Start
is active.
To turn off the Start sequence, press the
START
button
.
The
START ON
INDICATOR
will turn off indicating Start is
inactive.
.
The factory default mode for Start is
(AUTO). The (AUTO) setting has pre-
set parameters. Start can also be set to
(MAN) for manual settings. The Start
mode can be changed in the
START
MENU
.
To enter the
START MENU
press and hold
the
START
button until the
START MENU
INDICATOR
illuminates.
Rotate the
LEFT ADJUST Knob
to select
different menu items shown in the
LEFT
DISPLAY
. Rotate the
RIGHT ADJUST
Knob
to change menu item values shown
in the
RIGHT DISPLAY
.
To exit the
START MENU,
press and re-
lease the
START
button.
Items that can be adjusted in this menu are:
Start Mode (STRT)
−
Sets the Start Mode
to (AUTO or MAN). When the Start mode is
set to (AUTO), factory default parameters
are used. The (AUTO) parameter values
appear in the menu but are not adjustable.
When the Start Mode is set to (MAN), each
of the parameters are adjustable.
Start Wire Feed Speed (WFS)
−
Sets the
wire feed speed used during the Start Time.
This setting is a percentage of the wire feed
speed the unit is set to for welding. Range
of this setting is from (X0.5 to X2.50).
Example: If the weld wire feed speed is 200
and WFS is X1.50, the Start wire feed
Speed is 300.
Start Arc Length (ARC.L)
−
Sets the arc
length longer or shorter during the Start
Time. This setting is a percentage of the arc
length the unit is set to for welding. Range
of this setting is from (X0.50 to X1.50).
Example: If the weld arc length is set to 50
and ARC.L is X0.50, the Start Arc Length is
25.
.
When the PULS option in the
SETUP
MENU LEVEL 2
is set to VOLT, the
Start Arc length setting will be replaced
by the Start Voltage (VOLT) setting.
Start Voltage (VOLT)
−
Sets the voltage
during the Start Time. Range of this setting
varies with the selected wire and gas pro-
gram in the PULSED MIG process. With the
weld process set to PULSED MIG, the Start
Voltage setting will change if the wire and
gas program selection is changed.
Start Time (TIME)
−
The amount of time the
wire feed speed is active at the Start setting.
Range of this setting is from (0.1 to 0.5)
seconds.
Start Ramp Time (RAMP)
−
The amount of
time it takes to transition from the Start to
the weld wire feed speed setting. Range of
this setting is from (0.1 to 5.0) seconds.
