5 Mode Switch
The Mode switch setting determines both the
process and output On/Off control (see Sec-
tion 5-3). Source of control (panel or remote)
for the amount of output is selected on the V/A
Control switch.

ing, place switch in Stick position. For best re-
sults, place Arc Control in the maximum posi-
tion.
6 Remote 14 Receptacle
For remote control, make connections to Re-
mote 14 receptacle. In TIG modes and the
REMOTE STICK mode, remote control is a
percent of V/A Adjust control setting (value
selected on V/A Adjust is maximum available
on remote). In ELECTRODE HOT STICK
mode the remote control is not used. In the
MIG mode, remote control provides full range
of unit output regardless of V/A Adjust control
setting.

minimum, short-circuit amperage at low arc
voltage is the same as normal welding
amperage.
When set towards maximum, short-circuit
amperage is increased at low arc voltage to
assist with arc starts as well as reduce stick-
ing while welding.
Select setting best suited for application.
Control adjusts inductance when MIG or
V-Sense Feeder position is selected on the
mode switch. Inductance determines the
"wetness" of the weld puddle. When set to-
wards maximum, "wetness" (puddle fluidity)
increases.
When Pulsed MIG or one of the TIG modes is
selected, this control is not functional.
