3 SYSTEM PRESENTATION
3.1 General
The Quasar 320 SMC Classic, Smart, Exclusive - Quasar 400
SMC Classic, Smart, Exclusive are constant current inverter
power sources developed for electrode (MMA), MIG/MAG.
They are fully digital multiprocessor systems (data processing on
DSP and communication over CAN-BUS), capable of meeting
the various requirements of the welding world in the best pos-
sible way.

General alarm
Indicates the possible intervention of protection devices
such as the temperature protection.
4
Power on
Indicates the presence of voltage on the equipment
outlet connections.
5
7-segment display
Allows the general welding machine parameters to be
displayed during start-up, settings, current and voltage
readings, while welding, and encoding of the alarms.
6
Main adjustment handle (Quasar...Classic)
Allows entry to set up, the selection and the setting of
the welding parameters.
Allows continuous adjustment of the wire feed speed.
7
Main adjustment handle (Quasar...Classic)
Allows the regulation of the arc voltage.
Allows regulation of the arc length during welding.
High voltage = long arc
Low voltage = short arc
Minimum 5V, Maximum 55.5V
