Acceleration Selection

To provide optimum starting of various processes and proce- dures, the wire feed acceleration of the STT-10 can be set to five levels; 1 thru 5, for each procedure. 1 is the slowest accel- eration and 5 is the fastest. (Factory set to 4.)

When activated, the Range and Control selections no longer light, but function with the captured settings. All other keys and encoder knob controls function normally.

GAS PURGE

To change acceleration hold the Gas Purge Key closed, then press the Range key. The top display shows “Acc” indicating acceleration set- ting, 1 thru 5, is displayed on the bottom (Speed) display. Use the speed encoder knob to change setting from 1 thru 5.

To exit this function, and enter the acceleration setting into the procedure memory, press both keys again or close the trigger.
