BACKGROUND CURRENT DIAL I
l
The setting for the background current is made as a percen-
tage of the value set for the pulsing current I
DUTY CYCLE DIAL %
l
Setting dial for pulse / interval relationship = this dial is for
setting the relationship, in percentage terms, between the
pulsing current phase and the background current phase.
Setting-examples
Duty cycle dial is in scale position 10,
l
Short pulsing current phase of 10 %
l
Long background current phase of 90 %
l
Low degree of heat impact.
Duty cycle dial is in scale position 50, (see Fig.11)
l
Pulsing current phase and background current phase are
equally long (each 50 %)
l
Means medium degree of heat impact.
Duty cycle dial is in scale position 90,
l
Long pulsing current phase of 90 %
l
Short background current phase of 10 %
l
High degree of heat impact.

In the 4-step operating mode, the pulse phase begins as soon
as the operator releases the torch trigger in the up-slope. As
can be seen in Fig. 12, pulsing also takes place in the down-
slope.
Important! If you wish to be able to switch from main current to
crater-fill current while in pulsed-arc mode (without interrupting
welding), use:
l
4-step mode and a FRONIUS TIG torch with double control-
switch function, or:
l
special 4-step mode and a non-Fronius TIG torch
Please see chapter "Description of controls" for more details of the
4-step and special 4-step operating modes.

cases where it is necessary to alter the welding pulse current
during the welding operation. (Where the welder is dealing with
materials of different strengths, for example).
