Page 12: Control Cable Connections
Control Cable Connections General guidelines Genuine Lincoln control cables should be used at all times (except where noted otherwise). Generally, it is recommended that the total length not exceed 100 feet (30.5 m). The use of non-standard cables, especially in lengths greater than 25 feet, can lead to communication problems (system shutdowns), poor motor acceleration (poor arc starting), and low wire driving force (wire... - Page 13 VRD™ (VOLTAGE REDUCTION DEVICE) The VRD™ feature provides additional safety in the CC- Stick mode. The VRD™ reduces the OCV (Open Circuit Voltage) at the welding output terminals while not welding to less than 35VDC. The machine is shipped with VRD™ “enabled”. The VRD™...
