PREFLOW TIME | DESCRIPTION |
|
|
0 - 10 seconds | Adjusts the time that shielding |
| gas flows after the trigger is |
| pulled and prior to feeding wire. |
|
|
Off, 50 to150 in/min. | |
| speed from the time the trigger |
| is pulled until an arc is estab- |
| lished. |
Start Procedure | The Start Procedure controls |
| the WFS. Trim at a specified |
| time at the beginning of the |
| weld. During the start time, the |
| machine will ramp up or down |
| from the Start Procedure to the |
| preset Welding Procedure. |

PULSE FREQUENCY:
DESCRIPTION
For Pulse modes, Arc Control changes the pulsing frequency. When the frequency changes, the Power Wave system auto- matically adjusts the back- ground current to maintain a similar heat input into the weld. Low frequencies give more con- trol over the puddle and high frequencies minimize spatter.
For Pulse
Postflow Time: | Adjusts the time that shielding |
0 to 10 seconds | gas flows after the welding out- |
| put turns off. |
Burnback: 0 to .25 | The burnback time is the |
Seconds | amount of time that the weld |
| output continues after the wire |
| stops feeding. It prevents the |
| wire from sticking in the puddle |
| and prepares the end of the |
| wire for the next arc start. |
Crater Procedure | Crater Procedure controls the |
| WFS and Trim for a specified |
| time at the end of the weld |
| after the trigger is released. |
| During the Crater time, the |
| machine will ramp up or down |
| from the Weld Procedure to |
| the Crater Procedure. |
