One of these four items will blink to indicate which item will change when the Mode Select Panel Knob is rotated. Initially, the selected item will be the attribute. To select the high limit, press either Mode Select Panel button and the high limit value will begin to blink. Pressing either Mode Select Panel button again will cause the memory value to blink, pressing a third time will cause the low limit to blink.
Weld modes cannot be selected from the Limits Setup menu; the mode must be selected and saved to memory prior to entering the Limits Setup menu.
The memory value, high and low limit values are bound by the limits of the machine. For example, weld mode 49 may allow the wire feed speed to be adjusted between 100 and 700 in/min. These are referred to as "machine limits". Machine limits can vary between power sources and are also weld mode dependent.
The memory value must always be less than or equal to the high limit and greater than or equal to the low limit. The high limit must always be greater than or equal to the low limit and the low limit must always be less than or equal to the high limit. The rules are enforced automati- cally. If the low limit is increased above the memory value, the memory value will automatically increase.
To lock an attribute to a specific value, set the high and low limits to the desired value. The user will not be able to change it.
After setting limits, press the memory button that is flash- ing. The Mode Select Panel displays will prompt the user to save or discard the limit changes just made.
By pressing the Mode Select Panel button labeled YES, changes to limits are saved and user limits are automati- cally enabled. By pressing NO, any changes made to limits are discarded and the limit enable/disable state is not changed.

To enable or disable limits that have been established for any memory, press and hold the respective memory but- ton in for more than 10 seconds until the Mode Select Panel displays "Enable Limits?" Pressing "Yes" will use the established limits, while pressing "No" will ignore the established limits. The limits that have been set for any memory location will not be erased if they are disabled.
