FUNCTION
PARAMETERS
PURPOSE
1. Pre‑Flow
1‑10 Seconds
(N/A AUTO MODES)
This parameter operates in 2T and 4T HF TIG mode only and is
used to provide gas to the weld zone prior to striking the arc,
once the torch trigger switch has been pressed. This control
is used to dramatically reduce weld porosity at the start of a
weld.
2. Start Amps
10‑200 Amps
(N/A AUTO MODES)
(N/A FOOT CONTROL)
This parameter is used to set the start current for TIG. In 4T
mode the Initial Current remains on until the torch trigger
switch is released after it has been depressed. In 2T mode this
is the Initial Current for the Up Slope current ramp.
3. Upslope
0‑10 Seconds
(N/A AUTO MODES)
This parameter is used to set the time for the weld current to
ramp up from INITIAL current to BASE current.
(N/A AUTO MODES)
(N/A FOOT PEDAL)
4. Welding Amps
10‑200 Amps
(N/A AUTO MODES)
This parameter sets the welding current. In PULSE TIG mode,
this parameter sets the PEAK current.
(N/A AUTO MODES)
5. Pulse Base Amps
10‑200 Amps
(N/A AUTO MODES)
This parameter sets the welding current. In PULSE TIG mode,
this parameter sets the BASE current.
(N/A AUTO MODES)
6. Downslope
0‑10 Seconds
(N/A AUTO MODES)
Down Slope will ramp amps “down” from the welding amp
value to the end amp value to give time to fill the crater left
at the end of the weld bead. Can also be used in the 4T mode
to help with heat control by briefly tapping the switch to cool
off the weld before tapping it again to restart the up slope
sequence before the arc reaches the end amp stage.
7. End Amps
10‑200 Amps
(N/A AUTO MODES)
Sets the final or minimum current before the arc is
terminated. Used for filling craters at the ends of the weld and
crack prevention.
