Symbol and function explanations

TIG welding
TIG welding melts the metal of the workpiece, using an arc struck from a
tungsten electrode, which does not melt itself. The weld pool and the electrode
are protected by shielding gas.
Live TIG-start
At a "Live TIG-start" the tungsten electrode is placed against the workpiece. When the
electrode is lifted away from workpiece, the arc is struck at a limited current level.
Active panel
Settings are made from the control panel.
Remote control unit
Settings are made from the remote control unit.
The remote control unit must be connected to the remote control unit socket on
the equipment before activation. When the remote control unit is activated the
panel is inactive.
