| Parameter | Definition |
|
| |
|
| P.16 |
|
|
| |
|
|
|
| This option determines how the potentiometer on the Push/Pull torch will behave. |
|
|
|
|
|
| Gun Pot Enabled = The welding wire feed speed is always controlled by the potentiometer on the push- |
| |
|
|
|
| pull gun (default). The left front panel knob is only used to adjust Start and Crater wire feed speed. |
|
|
|
|
|
| Gun Pot Disabled = The wire feed speed is always controlled by the left front panel knob. This setting is |
| |
|
|
|
| useful when the operator wishes to have wire feed speed settings recalled from memories and not have |
| |
|
|
|
| the potentiometer "overwrite" the setting. |
|
|
|
|
|
| Gun Pot Proc A = When in procedure A, the welding wire feed speed is controlled by the potentiometer on |
| |
|
|
|
| the |
| |
|
|
|
| knob. This setting allows a fixed wire feed speed to be selected in procedure changes. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
| |
|
| P.20 | Display Trim as Volts Option |
|
| |
|
|
|
| This option determines how trim is displayed. |
|
|
|
|
|
| False = The trim is displayed in the format defined in the weld set (default). |
|
|
|
|
|
| True = All trim values are displayed as a voltage. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
| |
|
| P.22 | Arc Start/Loss Error Time |
|
| |
|
|
|
| This option can be used to optionally shut off output if an arc is not established, or is lost for a specified |
| |
|
|
|
| amount of time. Error 269 will be displayed if the machine times out. If the value is set to OFF, machine |
| |
|
|
|
| output will not be turned off if an arc is not established nor will output be turned off if an arc is lost. The |
| |
|
|
|
| trigger can be used to hot feed the wire (default). If a value is set, the machine output will shut off if an arc |
| |
|
|
|
| is not established within the specified amount of time after the trigger is pulled or if the trigger remains |
| |
|
|
|
| pulled after an arc is lost. This is disabled while welding in Stick, TIG or Gouge. To prevent nuisance |
| |
|
|
|
| errors, set Arc Start/Loss Error Time to an appropriate value after considering all welding parameters (run- |
| |
|
|
|
| in wire feed speed, weld wire feed speed, electrical stick out, etc). To prevent subsequent changes to Arc |
| |
|
|
|
| Start/Loss Error Time, the setup menu should be locked out by setting Preference Lock = Yes using the |
| |
|
|
|
| Power Wave Manager software. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
| |
|
| P.80 | Sense From Studs |
|
| |
|
|
|
| Use this option for diagnostic purposes only. When power is cycled, this option is automatically reset to |
| |
|
|
|
| False. |
|
|
|
|
|
| False = Voltage sensing is automatically determined by the selected weld mode and other machine set- |
| |
|
|
|
| tings (default). |
|
|
|
|
|
| True = Voltage sensing is forced to "studs". |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
| |
|
| P.81 | Sense Leads Selection |
|
| |
|
|
|
| Used in place of DIP switches for configuration of the work and electrode sense leads. This option will |
| |
|
|
|
| only appear in the list if the power source has a hardware selection option. |
|
|
|
|
|
| 67 pos polarity = An electrode sense lead is connected using positive polarity. This is used by most |
| |
|
|
|
| GMAW welding procedures. |
|
|
|
|
|
| 67 neg polarity = An electrode sense lead is connected using negative polarity. This is used by most |
| |
|
|
|
| GTAW welding procedures and some Innershield procedures. |
|
|
|
|
|
| 67 & 21 = An electrode sense lead and work sense lead are connected. |
|
|
|
|
|
| Hardware Config = The hardware determines the best remote sensing configuration. This is applicable to |
| |
|
|
|
| MIG welding procedures only. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
| |
|
| P.82 | Voltage Sense Display |
|
| |
|
|
|
| Allows viewing of Voltage Sense Lead Selection to aid in troubleshooting. The configuration is displayed |
| |
|
|
|
| as a text string on the lower display whenever the output is enabled. This parameter is not saved on a |
| |
|
|
|
| power cycle, but will be reset to False. |
