CONFIGURING THE SYSTEM

The power source will “Auto Map” the system eliminat- ing most of the need to set DIP switches to configure the system.

If a system can not be “Auto Mapped” then the status light on the power source will blink green fast and the welder output will be disabled.

If a system can not be “Auto Mapped” then the status light on the power source will blink green fast and the welder output will be disabled. If a system is not “Auto-mappable”, then consult the instruction manual for the accessory being used for configuration infor- mation about DIP switch settings, or consult your local Lincoln sales representative.
