Manual Hot Start Mode

When ALST appears in the left display and

On appears in the right display, the welding power source is set for manual hot start mode.

To access hot start parameters, press the SETUP (1) button until SPWR appears in the left display.

SPWR − Start Power

Range for start power is 100-250 as a per- cent of wire feed speed.

.SPWR maximum setting will depend

on set wire feed speed and may not allow a setting of 250 under certain conditions.

STMR − Start Time

Time range is 0.0-0.5 seconds for hot start to be on.

STRL − Start Arc Length

Range for start arc length is 0-99 that changes arc length from shorter to longer.

RMPT − Ramp Time

Time range is 0.1-5.0 for the time it takes to go from hot start to set wire feed speed.

.The two parameters that will have the

largest influence on hot start are Start Power and Start Time. These two pa- rameters will determine how much heat is provided and for how long at the beginning of the weld.

To exit this menu, press the SETUP (1) button.
