CONTROLS: (See Figure 2)

The MEMORY button and SELECT knob are used together to select a welding process an store it in (M1 thru M8). The SELECT knob scrolls through the, welding process modes and memory modes M1 thru M8. The MEMORY button stores the welding process in memory.

•SELECT button" (The right button) selects between the "Hot Start" or "Arc Control". The < will indicate the active feature shown below.

EXAMPLE OF SAVING WELDING MODES TO MEMORY

The following example is how to select Pulse MIG using .035 steel and store it into memory.

1.Turn the Select knob until welding process is dis- played.

RIGHT WINDOW	LEFT WINDOW
Pulse MIG	Argon Blends
Steel .035

2.Wait two seconds and the right window will display Arc Control on the second line on the right side.

Pulse MIG	Argon Blends
Steel .035	Arc Cntrl ### <

3.SPd is displayed in the upper right Volts window. The left Amps window matches the desired wire feed speed that is set on the wire feeder. Adjust the Output knob until desired number is displayed.

4.Start welding. If the arc length is too short turn the Output knob up. If the arc length is too long turn the Output knob down.

The Arc Control which is displayed in the right digital window can be used to fine-tune the arc length and characteristics.

5.After all adjustments have been made press and hold the Memory button until the display changes. The right and the left window will display what memory to save in, lets say M1. To store in M1 push the Memory button again to save the Pulse Mig mode to memory M1.

6.The display in the digital windows read as follows:

M1 Pulse MIG	Argon Blends
Steel .035	Arc Cntrl 1.2

7.Saving or entering a second welding mode to a memory, M2. Turn the Select knob until the desired welding process mode is displayed in right digital window. Then follow steps 1 thru 6.

Press the Memory button till the digital window reads,

Save to MEM M2

Press the Memory button again and the New Welding process is saved in M2.

8.Adjust the output control to the correct wire feed setting and the V350-PRO is ready to weld again. (Note: The wire feed speed setting is not stored in memory and will need to be reset.)

9.Adjust the Arc Control and note that the M1 goes away indicating that the V350-PRO settings no longer match what is stored in memory. Going back to the original settings will not bring the M1 back. You will need to push the Memory button to recall the original settings in M1.

Note: After all memory’s M1 thru M8 are used and the welder needs to store another welding process, a new welding process will overwrite what was originally in the memory and will read,

Save to MEM M1 Overwrite

M1 which stored Pulse Mig is Overwritten with the new welding process.
