OPERATION

WELD MODE DETAILS:

 

 

 

 

Mode

Range

Comments

 

 

 

Stick Soft

5 - 425 amps

The stick soft mode is the best selection for general stick

 

 

applications.

 

 

Arc Control = Arc Force

 

 

Hot Start = Initial hot start current (min = start a match set amps, Max.

 

 

= greatest hot start current) During hot start, arc force is set

 

 

at high and is fast response.

 

 

For gouging applications: Turn current up to 425 amps.

 

 

 

Stick Crisp

5 - 425 amps

The stick crisp mode features an aggressive arc force routine well suit-

 

 

ed for Exx10, Exx11 series electrodes.

 

 

Arc Control = Arc Force

 

 

Hot Start = Initial hot start current (Mid range = welding current and will

 

 

vary up and down with knobcontrol.) During hot start, arc

 

 

force is set at high and is fast response.

 

 

For gouging applications: Turn current up to 425 amps.

 

 

 

GTAW (Tig mode)

5 - 425 amps

The tig mode produces a soft, steady constant current waveform for

 

 

either touch start or high frequency assisted start DC GTAW applica-

 

 

tions.

 

 

Hot Start = Min to Mid range = Touch start with low OCV

 

 

Mid to Max range = High frequency assistedstarting with adjustable

 

 

OCV up to 70 volts.

 

 

 

GMAW - CV

10 - 45 volts

The GMAW - CV mode is the best selection for general MIG welding,

 

 

Metal core, and gas shielded applications.

 

 

Arc Control = Pinch (Min = min pinch, softest arc),

 

 

(Max = max pinch, crispest arc)

 

 

 

FCAW-SS

10 - 45 volts

The FCAW-SS mode is designed for Self Shielded Innershield products

 

 

that require tight voltage control. For example; the NR 203 series or NR

 

 

207)

 

 

Arc Control = Pinch (Min = min pinch, softest arc),

 

 

(Max = max pinch, crispest arc, )

 

 

 

 

ADVANCED PULSE PANEL WELDING PROGRAMS

 

 

 

Gouging

60 - 425 amps

The gouging mode is a low power version of other Lincoln welding

 

 

equipment gouging programs, for example a PowerWave 455.

 

 

 

GMAW - Power

1 - 18 (No Units)

Refer to the detailed explanation at the end of this section.

 

 

This mode does not allow preset voltage. In the short arc GMAW

 

 

mode, the set KW will not equal the actual Volts * Amps. The set

 

 

power is regulated only when an arc is present. During shorting, the

 

 

output is allowed to increase to clear the short.
