8-2. Standard Pulse Welding Programs

The following sixteen (16) pulse welding programs are in the control memory. Use this information if it is necessary to
change a standard program, or as a basis to build your own custom program. If at any time while changing a standard
program, or while building your own custom program, you want to go back to the standard program in the control
memory, see Section 14-12 for System memory Reset instructions. See Section 10 for explanation of Pulse welding
settings.
Apk = Peak Amperage, Abk = Background Amperage, PPS = Pulses Per Second, PWms = Pulse Width (millisec-
onds), Vpk = Peak Voltage

The interface unit is designed for
use in pulse MIG welding (adaptive
or standard), or MIG welding.
The unit is factory-equipped with
eight programs for pulse MIG
welding.
The unit also provides memory for
the creation of up to eight MIG
programs (see Section 11).
The weld programs require the user
to enter information specific to the
welding application. This
information is entered as a part of
program development (see Section
9 for pulsed MIG information), and
during setup (see Section 14).
The eight pulse programs are
shown in the table. Each program
can be used in standard pulse MIG
or adaptive pulse MIG.
In an adaptive pulse MIG program,
the unit manipulates certain weld
variables to hold arc voltage
constant. This feature is described
in Section 10-5.
The factory-set parameters for
each program can be changed to
customize them for an application
(see Section 10).
