Voltmeter And Ammeter
Voltmeter displays average voltage (to the
nearest 0.1 V) at the weld output terminals.
Use meter to preset amperage. Meter dis-
plays average weld amperage output of unit
to nearest ampere when welding.

NOTE: Meters are self-calibrating. No adjust-

Amperage Adjustment
Control
Use control to adjust amperage, and preset
amperage on ammeter. This control may be
adjusted while welding.
For remote amperage control, front panel
control setting is the maximum amperage
available. For example: If front panel control
is set to 200 A, the range of the remote amper-
age control is 3 to 200 amps for 250 DX mod-
els, and 3 to 200 amps for 350 LX models..
For pulse welding, use Amperage Adjust
control to select from 3-300 amps of peak am-
perage for 250 DX models, or 3−400 amps of
peak amperage for 350 LX models (see Sec-
tion 4-12).
For spot welding, use Amperage Adjust
control to select from 3-310 amps for 250 DX
models, or 3−400 amps for 350 LX models
(see Section 4-16).

Postflow Time Control
Use control to set length of time (0−50 sec-
onds) gas flows after welding stops. It is im-
portant to set enough time to allow gas to flow
until after the tungsten and weld puddle has
cooled down.
Application:
Postflow is required to cool the tungsten and
weld, and to prevent contamination of tung-
sten and weld. Increase postflow time if tung-
sten or weld are dark in appearance (approxi-
mately 1 second per 10 ampere of welding
current).
