Wire Feed Speed Calibration:
This is used to calibrate the feeder's wfs meter to a known
calibrated WFS meter. To calibrate the wire feed speed, before
entering the set-up menu:
- Set the display to desired WFS (example: 400 IPM)
- Measure the actual WFS (example: 405 IPM)
While in the Advanced Setup Menu, adjust the calibration factor
as follows:
* Actual WFS/ Set WFS = Calibration Factor
* Example: 405/400 = 1.01
Password Setting / Enable:
A resettable 4 digit password can be set from the Advanced
Setup Menu. Once in the Advanced Setup Menu navigate to
"Password" by default it is Off. When the bottom knob is
using the bottom left knob. When the decided number is set

digit and continue to do so for the remaining two digits.
Once all four digits have been selected the next knob press will
save the password and where the four digit password was on
the right side of the bottom display will then be replaced with
