3.3 Set up
Permits set up and adjustment of a series of additional parameters
for improved and more accurate control of the welding system.
The parameters present at set up are organised in relation to the
welding process selected and have a numerical code.
Entry to set up: by pressing the encoder key for 5 sec.
Selection and adjustment of the required parameter: by
turning the encoder until displaying the numerical code relating
to that parameter. If the encoder key is pressed at this point,
the value set for the parameter selected can be displayed and
adjusted.
Exit from set up: to quit the "adjustment" section, press the
encoder again.
To exit the set up, go to parameter "O" (save and quit) and press
the encoder.
3.3.1 WF...Classic
List of set up parameters (MIG/MAG)
0
Save and quit
Allows you to save the changes and exit the set up.
1
Reset
Allows you to reset all the parameters to the default
values.
3
Wire speed
Allows the regulation of the wire feed rate.
Minimum 0.5 m/min, Maximum 22 m/min, Default
1.0m/min
7
Voltage
Allows the regulation of the arc voltage.
Allows regulation of the arc length during welding.
High voltage = long arc
Low voltage = short arc
Minimum 5V, Maximum 55.5V
10
Pre-gas
Allows you to set and adjust the gas flow prior to striking
of the arc.
Permits filling of the torch with gas and preparation of
the environment for welding.
Minimum off, Maximum 25 sec., Default 0.1 sec.
11
Soft start
Permits adjustment of the wire feed speed in the phases
prior to arc striking.
Given as a % of the wire speed set.
Permits striking at reduced speed, therefore softer and
with less spatter.
Minimum 10%, Maximum 100%, Default 50% (syn)
12
Motor slope
Allows you to set a gradual transition between the
sparking wire speed and the welding wire speed.
Minimum off, Maximum 1.0 sec., Default off
15
Burn back
Permits adjustment of the wire burn time, preventing
sticking at the end of welding.
Permits adjustment of the length.
Permits adjustment of the length of the piece of wire
outside the torch.
Minimum -2.00, Maximum +2.00, Default syn
16
Post-gas
Permits setting and adjustment of the gas flow at the
end of welding.
Minimum off, Maximum 10 sec., Default 2 sec.
30
Spot welding
Allows you to enable the "spot welding" process and
establish the welding time.
Minimum 0.1s, Maximum 25s, Default off
34
31
Pause point
Allows you to enable the "pause point" process and
establish the pause time between one welding opera-
tion and another.
Minimum 0.1s, Maximum 25s, Default off
202
Inductance
Allows electronic regulation of the series inductance of
the welding circuit.
Makes it possible to obtain a quicker or slower arc to
compensate for the welder's movements and for the
natural welding instability.
Low inductance = reactive arc (more spatter).
High inductance = less reactive arc (less spatter).
Minimum -30, Maximum +30, Default syn
500
Reset XE (Easy Mode)
Not used
Reset XA (Advanced Mode)
Manual welding method.
Allows the manual setting and regulation of each indi-
vidual welding parameter.
Reset XP (Professional Mode)
Allows the manual setting and regulation of each indi-
vidual welding parameter.
Makes it possible to use a series of pre-settings available
in the memory of the system.
Allows access to the higher set-up levels:
USER: user
SERV: service
SELCO: Selco
551
Lock/unlock
Allows the locking of the panel controls and the inser-
tion of a protection code (consult the "Lock/unlock"
section).
705
Circuit resistance calibration
Lets you calibrate the system.
Press the encoder knob to access parameter 705.
Place the tip of the wire guide in electrical contact with
the work piece.
Press and hold the torch trigger for at least 1 s.
751
Current reading
Allow the real value of the welding current to be dis-
played.
Allows the welding current display method to be set.
752
Voltage reading
Allows the real value of the welding voltage to be dis-
played.
Allows the welding voltage display method to be set.
755
Gas flow reading
Allows the real gas flow value to be displayed.
760
(Motor) Current reading
Allow the real value of the (motor) current to be dis-
played.
