•In 4-Step position allows welding without continuously holding the start switch trigger. The arc start switch func- tions in the following manner:

1.Closing switch starts preflow, then arc starts at Minimum (Start) setting level (See Item 7). If the trigger is maintained closed after preflow time the output remains at the Start level until it is released.

2.Opening switch initiates fixed (0.5 sec.) ramp time from Start setting level to Weld setting.

3.Reclosing switch initiates Downslope ramp time setting (See item 17) from Weld setting down to the Crater-fill level (See Item 7) of the machine.

4.Reopening switch after Downslope time holds Crater-fill level until switch opens, then stops the arc and initiates the Postflow Time (See Item 9). Or, reopening switch during Downslope time immediately stops the arc and initiates the Postflow.

Note: (See Internal Set Up Controls) for 4-Step operation during Downslope with Restart feature selected to be enabled, instead of disabled (as shipped).

13.PULSE/SPOT MODE SWITCH – Turns on the Pulse Mode as indicated by the Green panel light turning on.

•PULSE ON provides a Peak current level set by REMOTE and/or LOCAL control of the output current (See Item5), for a time determined by the Pulse Frequency Control setting (See Item 14) and the % ON Time (See Item 15). The balance of the cycle time is at the Background Current level (See Item 16). The Green panel light blinks at the pulse frequency and time setting rate.

•Pulsing begins after upslope when the output current rises above the Background Current level and ends when the output current drops below this level.

•SPOT ON mode provides the peak current level set by the Maximum Output Control for a time determined by the SPOT TIME control (see below). The red panel light is on for Spot mode.

14.PULSE FREQUENCY CONTROL – This knob is used to set the Pulse Frequency over the peak pulse range of about 0.1 pps to 20 pps. (One pulse cycle time = 1/pps = 10 to .05 sec. range.)

15.PULSE % ON TIME/SPOT TIME CONTROL – This knob sets the time for Pulse or Spot modes:

•% ON TIME sets duration of the peak current as a per- centage (5% to 95% on white scale) of one pulse cycle. The balance of the cycle time will be at the Background Current setting. (See Item 16)

•SPOT TIME sets the duration of the Spot pulse (0.5 to 5.0 seconds on red scale).

16.PULSE BACKGROUND CURRENT CONTROL – This knob controls the level of the Background Current as a percentage (MIN.-100%) of the Peak (REMOTE and/or LOCAL) output level (See Item 6) down to the Minimum Output setting (See Item 7).

17.DOWNSLOPE TIME– This knob is used to set the time, over the range of zero to about 10 seconds, to ramp down from weld setting to Crater-fill level (See Item 7).

•If the arc goes out after the Downslope time is initiated, the Downslope time is interrupted and the Postflow time is initiated. This prevents Hi-Freq re-initiation during ramp down crater fill

•When using an Amptrol remote control, where the downs- lope is controlled by the operator down to the crater-fill level, the Downslope time should be set to zero so as not to have the Downslope time delay when the arc start switch is opened.
