Setting of detector Sensitivity function
Setting the performance of the photo detector system (which res-
ponds to the light from the welding arc) is made with the Sensitivi-
ty button. In order to see which position the welding filter is current-
ly set to, momentarily press the Sensitivity button. To select ano-
ther setting, press the Sensitivity button again while the LED is flas-
hing, and continue to press until the LED shows the desired setting.

Position 1 Least sensitive setting. Used if there is disturbing light
from other welders in the vicinity.
Position 2 Normal position. Used for most types of welding
indoors and outdoors.
Position 3 Position for welding with low current or where the
welding arc becomes stable. (eg TIG welding at low
amps)
Position 4 Extreme photo detector sensitivity. Suitable for very
low current welding or pipe welding where part of the
arc is obscured from view.

Position - Normal position. Used for most types of welding indo-
ors and outdoors.
Position + Position for welding with low current or where the
welding arc becomes stable. (eg TIG welding at low
amps)
Finding the right setting of detector

In order to find a suitable sensitivity setting for the detector, start
with the setting, before welding, in Position 2. This is a normal
position that functions in the majority of situations. If the filter does
not darken during welding as desired, raise the sensitivity to Posi-
tion 3 or 4 until a definite shift to dark position takes place. Should
