Switching To The Required Function; Switching To The Required Welding Mode; Resetting All Functions Of The Current Welding Mode; Changing The Program Number In The Current Welding Mode - Paton StandardMIG-160 User Manual

Buttons 7 on the front panel of the feeder are used to change the current value on the
digital display on the right side.

6.1 SWITCHING TO THE REQUIRED FUNCTION

If the unit has a tamper-proof function menu system, no change occurs on the digital
display when you press button 3 on the source, i.e. the button is locked. To unlock it, you
must hold it down for more than 3.5 seconds. When unlocked, the display shows the
opening locks indicating that the function menu has been unlocked. After successful
unlocking, pressing button 3 will display the current function name and its value on the
digital display.
Warning! After releasing button 3 in 2 seconds, the screen will switch back to the main
parameter of the current welding mode. While the display shows the current function, its
value can be changed up or down, using the buttons 1. Or by quickly pressing and releasing
button 3 you can switch to the next function in a circle.
Warning! If you hold down button 3 for more than 10 seconds, the display will show a
countdown 333...222...111... You must release the button before this time expires in order
not to reset all settings of this mode to the standard factory settings. This task will be
considered in paragraph 6..
Similarly, when button 11 is pressed, the digital display on the right shows the graphic
name of the current function of the wire feeder, and immediately after releasing it for 2
seconds, the current value of that function is shown. The buttons 7 can be used to change it
up or down.
If the menu is locked, as in the case of the function menu on the source, just hold down
this button for more than 3.5 seconds.

6.2 SWITCHING TO THE REQUIRED WELDING MODE

Press button 4 to select the desired welding mode. The modes are switched in a circle.
This can be seen on the display 2.

6.3 RESETTING ALL FUNCTIONS OF THE CURRENT WELDING MODE

There may be situations where the settings in the unit are somewhat confusing to the
user. In order to reset the settings to the factory default values, it is necessary to use the
same button 3, which is used to enter the function menu. To reset the settings, it is simply
enough to hold the button 3 for more than 10 seconds (do not pay attention to the locks
displayed). The display will start counting down 333...222...111 and when "000" is reached,
all settings of the current welding mode will be reset to the factory settings. The
parameters for each welding mode are reset separately. This is done for convenience not to
reset the individual settings in the other two modes.
Similarly, you can reset the settings on the wire feeder with the button 11.

6.4 CHANGING THE PROGRAM NUMBER IN THE CURRENT WELDING MODE

Each MMA, TIG and MIG/MAG welding mode allows the user to store up to 16
different settings. The current setup number (program) is displayed in the upper right
