|
|

|
|
|
|
| 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 |
| |
|
|
|
|
| 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 Procedure A = When in procedure A, the welding wire feed speed is controlled by the |
| |
|
|
|
|
| potentiometer on the |
| |
|
|
|
|
| trolled by the left front panel knob. This setting allows a fixed wire feed speed to be selected |
| |
|
|
|
|
| in procedure B and not have the potentiometer "overwrite" the setting when procedure |
| |
|
|
|
|
| changes. |

|
| 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 determined by the DIP switch configuration and the selected weld |
| |
|
|
|
|
| mode (default). |
|
|
|
|
|
|
| • True = Voltage sensing is forced to "studs" regardless of the DIP switch configuration and |
| |
|
|
|
|
| selected weld mode. |

|
| P.99 | Show Test Modes |
|
| |
|
|
|
|
| Most power sources contain weld modes used for calibration and test purposes. By default, the |
| |
|
|
|
|
| machine does not include test weld modes in the list of weld modes that are available to the |
| |
|
|
|
|
| operator. To manually select a test weld mode, set this option to "Yes". When the power source |
| |
|
|
|
|
| is turned off and back on again, the test modes will no longer appear in the mode list. Test weld |
| |
|
|
|
|
| modes typically require the machine output to be connected to a grid load and cannot be used |
| |
|
|
|
|
| for welding. |
