WELDING CONTROLS (Figure B.1)

1.OUTPUT CONTROL: The OUTPUT dial is used to pre- set the output voltage or current as displayed on the digi- tal meters for the four welding modes. When in the CC- STICK, or CV-WIRE modes and when a remote control is connected to the 6-Pin or 14-Pin Connector, the auto- sensing circuit automatically switches the OUTPUT CONTROL from control at the welder to the remote con- trol.

When in the DOWNHILL PIPE mode and when a REMOTE CONTROL is connected to the 6-Pin or 14-Pin Connector, the OUTPUT CONTROL is used to set the maximum cur- rent range of the OUTPUT CONTROL of the REMOTE.

Example:

When the OUTPUT CONTROL on the welder is set to 200 amps the current range on the REMOTE CONTROL will be 40-200 amps rather than the full 40-300 amps. Any current range that is less than the full range provides finer current resolution for more fine tuning of the output.

In the CV-WIRE mode, if the wire feeder has voltage con- trol capability, when the control cable is connected to the 14-Pin Connector, the auto-sensing circuit automatically makes OUTPUT CONTROL inactive and the wire feeder voltage control active.

When in the TOUCH START TIG mode and when a Amptrol is connected to the 6-Pin Connector, the OUT- PUT control is used to set the maximum current range of the CURRENT CONTROL of the Amptrol.

2.DIGITAL OUTPUT METERS

The digital meters allow the output voltage (CV-WIRE mode) or current (CC-STICK, PIPE and TIG modes) to be set prior to welding using the OUTPUT control dial. During welding, the meter display the actual output volt- age (VOLTS) and current (AMPS). A memory feature holds the display of both meters on for seven seconds after welding is stopped. This allows the operator to read the actual current and voltage just prior to when welding was ceased.

While the display is being held the left-most decimal point in each display will be flashing. The accuracy of the meters is +/- 3%.
