PULSE | DESCRIPTION | |
FREQUENCY: |
|
|
For Pulse | modes, A rc Control | |
(High)+10.0 | changes the pulsing frequency. | |
| When the frequency changes, | |
| the Power Wave system auto- | |
| matically | adjusts the back - |
| ground current t o maintain a | |
| similar heat input into the weld. | |
| Low frequencies give more con- | |
| trol over the puddle and high | |
frequencies minimize spatter. | ||
For Pulse | ||
FREQ.MODULATION | Arc controls changes the frequ- | |
ency modulation. The freque- | ||
(High)+10.0 | ||
| spacing of the ripples in the | |
| weld. Use low values for slow | |
| travel speeds and wide welds, | |
| and high values for fast travel | |
| speeds and narrower welds. |

PREFLOW TIME | DESCRIPTION |
| ||
|
| |||
0 - 25.0 seconds | Adjusts the time that shielding | |||
| gas flows after | the trigger | is | |
| pulled and prior to feeding wire. | |||
| the wire | feed | ||
Off, 30 to150 in/min. | ||||
| speed from the time the trigger | |||
| is pulled until an arc is estab- | |||
| lished. |

Start Procedure | The Start Procedure | control s | ||
| the WFS. Trim a t a specified | |||
| time at t he beginning | of t he | ||
| weld. During the start time, the | |||
| machine will ramp up or down | |||
| from the Start Procedure to the | |||
| preset Welding Procedure. |

Spot Timer |
| Adjust the time welding will |

0 to 120.0 Seconds |
| continue even if the trigger |

|
| is still pulled. This option |

Postflow Time: |
| Adjusts the time that shielding |

0 to 25.0 seconds |
| gas flows after the welding out- |
| ||||||
|
| put turns off. |
|
|
|
|
| ||
Burnback: 0 to .25 |
| The | burnback | time | is t he |
| |||
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. |
