12. Sequencer. The sequencer controls the arc
cycle and other related parameters to the se-
lected process's function. These are controlled
by the selector buttons in # 13. The sequencer
controls items such as pre flow, post flow, TIG/
MIG Upslope, TIG/MIG Down Slope, MIG Volts,
MIG Pulse Volts, MIG Inductance, MIG Burn
back, MIG Pulse Parameters, TIG Amps, TIG
Pulse Amps, and other TIG Pulse parameters.
See the "Additional features located within the
sequencer" section, immediately following item
#19 for further expanded discussion of the fea-
tures found within the sequencer chart.
13. Selector Buttons. The selector buttons are used
to highlight each function found in the sequenc-
er. Pressing the left button will move the high-
lighted LED to the next applicable function in the
sequencer chart. Pressing the right button will
move the highlighted LED to the next applicable
function in the sequencer chart. Depending
upon the process selected, some LED's will be
skipped over as the button is pressed. Do not
let that confuse you as some features are not
related to the process you have chosen. As each
function is selected, the value may be represent-
ed in seconds, volts, amps, percent or in Hertz.
As the sequencer is cycled left or right, the dis-
play to be read to determine the value of the
highlighted sequencer feature and the LED rep-
resenting the unit of measurement may change.
14. Adjustment Control. Any adjustable value,
including volts and amps is controlled through
this single knob. To adjust, highlight the desired
LED related to the function you wish to adjust by
using the Selector buttons (#13) for MIG and TIG
sequencer, or the Selector button for related
Stick functions (#11). Then turn clockwise to
increase the value of the feature, or counter
clockwise to decrease the value of the feature.
While turning, you will feel fine "clicks" or stops
in the movement of the knob. This is normal
and each click will increase or decrease the val-
ue by the smallest unit of measure the function
is programmed to display. This may prove slow
or tedious when large amounts of change in
value are required. To adjust in greater incre-
ments (10x), push the knob in slightly, until
greater resistance is felt and turn the knob at
the same time. This will expedite the adjust-
ment process, when large changes are required.
Setup Guide and Component Identification
Release the button and it will automatically
spring back and return to adjusting in smaller
increments.
15. Euro Quick Connect for MIG Gun. This style of
connection makes the Power i-MIG compatible
with many after market MIG torches/guns.
Connect the MIG torch by aligning pins on the
gun cable with the receptacle and pushing in.
Twist the collar on the cable connector to lock
in place. Do not use pliers or other tools to
tighten. Hand tighten only. This type of gun
connection is typically superior to many others
because it is self contained, does not require
tools to connect and does not have a separate
control connector that also needs to be
plugged. This connector has a reliable and
proven track record with many companies
throughout the world. Note: When using the
spool gun with this welder, this port also be-
comes the attachment point for the spool
gun, so the main gun will need to be removed
to connect the Spool Gun.
16. Gas Connector. This welder is equipped with
a separate connection point for TIG. By doing
so, this allows you to have automatic control of
gas flow and a direct connection point for the
gas line on the front of the panel. This elimi-
nates clumsy connections that may be re-
quired otherwise, and eliminates the need to
use a more bulky gas valve torch that only pro-
vides manual control of gas flow. Having a gas
solenoid valve and panel connection like this
can reduce gas wasting and accidental and
costly outflow of shielding gas when not ac-
tively TIG welding. This connection is currently
only provided for TIG welding and is not relat-
ed to any MIG or Spool Gun operation.
17. Positive Polarity Connector (+). This front
mounted connector terminal is a standard 35
series DINSE style connector. It provides a
positive polarity output. When using stick
mode, connect the cable from the electrode
holder to this terminal for most electrodes and
applications. When using Flux-core or dual
shield, connect the work clamp to this port,
unless the wire manufacturer specifically
states an electrode positive polarity (also re-
ferred to as Reverse Polarity). When using TIG
mode, connect the work clamp to this connect-
or.
18. Control. This seven pin plug is used to control
wire speed when the spool gun or push-pull
