Adjust the welding current using the main knob according to the thickness and type of connection to be made. The current selected is indicated on
the display.
ARC STRIKE / IGNITION :
LIFT start : Using the torch, make contact between the electrode and the metal piece, then slightly lift the electrode to start the arc.
WELD STOP / SWITCHING TO DOWNSLOPE :
To stop the weld, slightly lift the torch, the intensity will gradually reduce (downslope).

ADVANCED SETTINGS (TIG)
Refer to the chapter « Menu access » for more details regarding welding parameters.
Pulse
The two TIG modes
and
: I_Start, determines the level of the starting current expressed as a percentage of the welding current.
: UpSlope, duration of the ramp up (if I_Start < Welding) or ramp down (if I_Start > Welding) of the welding current expressed in seconds.
: DownSlope, duration of the welding current decreasing expressed in seconds.
Pulse
In TIG Pulse mode
, 3 extra settings are available :
: Frequency, determines the number of pulses per second (Hz).
: Percentage, determines the background/cold current expressed in percentage of the welding current.
: Duty cycle, determines the duty cycle expressed as a percentage of the pulsation frequency.
DISPLAY CURRENT/VOLTAGE DURING WELDING
During welding, the machine measures and displays the welding current and voltage. After the weld, the average current and voltage values are
displayed during 30 seconds, as soon as a knob or a button is pressed, the welding parameters are displayed.
SAVE AND RECALL WELDING SETTINGS
The current settings are automatically saved and will load next time the machine is used.
In addition to the current settings it is possible to save and recall configurations
There are 10 memory slots per mode.
The memory settings apply to :
- The main parameter (process, current setpoint)
- The secondary parameters (Hotstart, Arcforce, Upslope, etc.)
Save a configuration :
- Hold buttons
and
- Turn one of the two knobs to display
- The display flashes to indicate a memory slot (01 to 10).
- Turn the knob to select the memory slot in which the desired settings will be saved. Validate by pressing the button
