Push-Pull Gun Knob behavior

 

 

 

 

 

 

Determines how the potentiometer on the Push/Pull torch will behave.

 

 

 

 

 

 

• Gun Pot Enabled = The welding wire feed speed is always controlled by the potentiometer on the push-

 

 

 

 

 

pull gun (default). The left front panel knob is only used to adjust Start and Crater wire feed speed.

 

 

 

 

 

 

• Gun Pot Disabled = The wire feed speed is always controlled by the left front panel knob. This setting is

 

 

 

 

 

useful when the operator wishes to have wire feed speed settings recalled from memories and not have

 

 

 

 

 

the potentiometer "overwrite" the setting.

 

 

 

 

 

 

• Gun Pot Procedure A = When in procedure A, the welding wire feed speed is controlled by the poten-

 

 

 

 

 

tiometer on the push-pull gun. When in procedure B, the welding wire feed speed is controlled by the left

 

 

 

 

 

front panel knob. This setting allows a fixed wire feed speed to be selected in procedure B and not have

 

 

 

 

 

the potentiometer "overwrite" the setting when procedure changes.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

P.20

Display Trim as Volts Option

 

 

 

 

 

 

Determines how trim is displayed.

 

 

 

 

 

 

• False = The trim is displayed in the format defined in the weld set (default).

 

 

 

 

 

 

• True = All trim values are displayed as a voltage.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

P.22

Arc Start/Loss Error Time

 

 

 

 

 

 

Can be used to optionally shut off output if an arc is not established, or is lost for a specified amount of

 

 

 

 

 

time. Error 269 will be displayed if the machine times out. If the value is set to OFF, machine output will

 

 

 

 

 

not be turned off if an arc is not established nor will output be turned off if an arc is lost. The trigger can be

 

 

 

 

 

used to hot feed the wire (default). If a value is set, the machine output will shut off if an arc is not estab-

 

 

 

 

 

lished within the specified amount of time after the trigger is pulled or if the trigger remains pulled after an

 

 

 

 

 

arc is lost. This is disabled while welding in Stick, TIG or Gouge. To prevent nuisance errors, set Arc

 

 

 

 

 

Start/Loss Error Time to an appropriate value after considering all welding parameters (run-in wire feed

 

 

 

 

 

speed, weld wire feed speed, electrical stick out, etc). To prevent subsequent changes to Arc Start/Loss

 

 

 

 

 

Error Time, the setup menu should be locked out by setting Preference Lock = Yes using the Power Wave

 

 

 

 

 

Manager software.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

P.80

Sense From Studs

 

 

 

 

 

 

Use this option for diagnostic purposes only. When power is cycled, this option is automatically reset to

 

 

 

 

 

False.

 

 

 

 

 

 

• False = Voltage sensing is determined by the DIP switch configuration and the selected weld mode

 

 

 

 

 

(default).

 

 

 

 

 

 

• True = Voltage sensing is forced to "studs" regardless of the DIP switch configuration and selected weld

 

 

 

 

 

mode.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

P.81

Sense Leads Selection

 

 

 

 

 

 

Used in place of DIP switches for configuration of the work and electrode sense leads. This option will

 

 

 

 

 

only appear in the list if the power source has a hardware selection option.

 

 

 

 

 

 

• 67 pos polarity = An electrode sense lead is connected using positive polarity. This is used by most

 

 

 

 

 

GMAW welding procedures.

 

 

 

 

 

 

• 67 neg polarity = An electrode sense lead is connected using negative polarity. This is used by most

 

 

 

 

 

GTAW welding procedures and some Innershield procedures.

 

 

 

 

 

 

• 67 & 21 = An electrode sense lead and work sense lead are connected.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Hardware Config = The hardware determines the best remote sensing configuration. This is applicable to

 

 

 

 

 

MIG welding procedures only.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

P.82

Voltage Sense Display

 

 

 

 

 

 

Allows viewing of Voltage Sense Lead Selection to aid in troubleshooting. The configuration is displayed

 

 

 

 

 

as a text string on the MSP display whenever the output is enabled. This parameter is not saved on a

 

 

 

 

 

power cycle, but will be reset to False.
