    , welding data change with torch trigger switch or connecting remote control unit Display of VRD function (reduced open-circuit voltage); active or inactive NOTE! This function works for power sources where it is implemented. 0460 447 174 - 4 - © ESAB AB 2018...
  • Page 5 Buttons for weld data memory settings, see section "Welding data memory". Measured value in the display for arc voltage (V) and welding current (A), is arithmetic average value = rectified average value. 0460 447 174 - 5 - © ESAB AB 2018...
  • Page 6: Tig Welding

    These functions are hidden Tig functions, see description in section "Hidden TIG functions". These functions cannot be changed while welding is in progress. The setting range depend on the power source used. 0460 447 174 - 6 - © ESAB AB 2018...
  • Page 7: Symbol And Function Explanations

    (16) appearing in the display and welding cannot be started whilst the error message is displayed. Contact an authorised ESAB technician to activate the function. TIG welding TIG welding melts the metal of the workpiece, using an arc struck from a tungsten electrode, which does not melt itself.
  • Page 8 HF start The HF start function strikes the arc by means of a spark from the electrode to the workpiece as the electrode is brought closer to the workpiece. 0460 447 174 - 8 - © ESAB AB 2018...
  • Page 9 The shielding gas will continue to flow in order to protect the weld and the tungsten electrode. A = Gas pre flow B = Slope up C = Slope down D = Gas post flow 0460 447 174 - 9 - © ESAB AB 2018...
  • Page 10: Hidden Tig Functions

    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. Hidden TIG functions There are hidden functions in the control panel. 0460 447 174 - 10 - © ESAB AB 2018...
  • Page 11 This provides `gentler' heating of the electrode, and gives the welder a chance to position the electrode properly before the set welding current is reached. Unit of measurement 0 = inch/min, 1 = mm/min, default value = 1 0460 447 174 - 11 - © ESAB AB 2018...
  • Page 12 If the max current is 100 A and the min current is to be 90 A, set the min current to 90%. This function also applies when setting background current with pulsed TIG. 0460 447 174 - 12 - © ESAB AB 2018...
  • Page 13: Mma Welding

    (16) appearing in the display and welding cannot be started whilst the error message is displayed. Contact an authorised ESAB service technician to activate the function. MMA welding MMA welding may also be referred to as welding with coated electrodes. Striking the arc melts the electrode, and its coating forms protective slag.
  • Page 14: Hidden Mma Functions

    Hot start increases the weld current for an adjustable time at the start of welding, thus reducing the risk of poor fusion at the beginning of the joint. Min current Used to set the minimum current for the remote control. 0460 447 174 - 14 - © ESAB AB 2018...
  • Page 15 If the max current is 100 A and the min current is to be 50 A, set the concealed function min current to 50%. If the max current is 100 A and the min current is to be 90 A, set the min current to 90%. 0460 447 174 - 15 - © ESAB AB 2018...
  • Page 16: Welding Data Memory

    To switch between the different welding data memories press button The welding data memory has a back-up battery so that the settings remain even if the unit has been switched off. 0460 447 174 - 16 - © ESAB AB 2018...
  • Page 17: Fault Codes

    Hig open-circuit voltage VRD Open circuit voltage has been to high. Action: Turn of the mains power supply to reset the unit. Send for a service technician if the fault persists. 0460 447 174 - 17 - © ESAB AB 2018...
  • Page 18 Lost contact with the cooling unit The welding data unit has lost contact with the cooling unit. The welding process stops. Action: Check the wiring. If the fault persists, send for a service technician. 0460 447 174 - 18 - © ESAB AB 2018...
