OPTIONAL LIMIT SETUP
The Limits feature allows the operator to set minimum and maximum values for various parameters depending on the Weld Mode selected.
Each memory location may have a different set of limits, even if the Weld Mode is the same. For example: Memory Location 1 can be set for a maximum wire feed speed of 140”/min; Memory Location 2 may be set for a minimum of 100”/min and a maximum of 160”/min and Memory Location 3 may have no WFS limit set.
Set High | Value | Set Low |
Limit | Low Limit | Limit |

Parameters are constrained by the machine limitations or by memory limits. When the Memory Limits are enabled the parameter will flash if an attempt is made to set a value outside of the prescribed limit (if less than the machine capabilities). The parameter will not flash if an attempt is made to exceed the machine limits.
NOTE: Weld Modes cannot be selected through the Limits Setup Menu. They must be chosen and saved before entering the Limits Menu.
