to adjust the voltage with a master/slave
relationship with the output control dial.
When set to the 'remote' position, output is enabled
through a remote trigger. The 14-pin connector
remote input is used to adjust the voltage with a
master/slave relationship with the output control
dial.
Amperage Display – This display will display three
dashed lines when the machine is in the idle state. This
indicates that amperage is not settable in this weld
mode. While output is enabled, the actual welding
amperage will be displayed. After welding, the meter
holds the actual amperage value for 5 seconds. Output
adjustment while in the "Hold" period results in the
"prior to operation" characteristics stated above. The
displays blink indicating that the machine is in the
"Hold" period.
Voltage Display – This display will display the pre-set
welding current when the machine is in the idle state.
After welding, the meter holds the actual amperage
value for 5 seconds. Output adjustment while in the
"Hold" period results in the "prior to operation"
characteristics stated above. The displays blink
indicating that the machine is in the "Hold" period.
Output Control Local/Remote – When the control is
set to local (no remote potentiometer/control plugged
into the 12-pin or 14-pin connectors), the output is
controlled through the Output Control dial on the front of
the Flextec 350x CE. Set this switch to 'Remote' when
an external potentiometer/control is connected or using
a CrossLinc™ feeder.
When a CrossLinc™ equipped feeder like the LN-
25X is used, output will then be controlled at the
CrossLinc™ remote through the full range of the
voltage allowable. The output control dial on the
Flextec 350x CE will no longer set the maximum
amperage.
Output Control Dial
When the Local/Remote is set to Local, this dial
sets the welding amperage.
When the Local/Remote is set to Remote, and the
weld terminal switch is in the "ON" position, this
dial sets the maximum welding voltage. The
remote potentiometer controls the voltage from
minimum to this pre-set maximum. If the weld
terminal switch is in the "REMOTE" position, the
output is controlled via the 14-pin input.
Crosslinc™
crossLinc is a new welding system communication
technology. When using a CrossLinc enabled power
English
source such as the Flextec350x CE and a CrossLinc
enabled wire feeder such as the LN25x, welding
voltage can be controlled remotely without the use of an
additional control cable.
The digital meters on th LN25x will show the pre-set
values for wire feed speed and voltage prior to welding.
During welding, the meters will show actual current and
voltage present at the wire feeder. After welding the
meters will then flashthe last welding current and
voltage that was present during welding for 10 seconds
after welding. If WFS or V is adjusted during this 10
second period, the meters will go back to the pre-set
value.
When a LN25x CrossLinc enabled feeder is
connected with the Flextec 350x CE using the
standard weld power cable and the LN25x sense
lead is attached to the work piece, the
CrossLinclight will automatically illuminbate on both
the Flextec350x CE and the LN25x. no additional
pairing of the machine to the feeder is needed.
This light indicates the CrossLinc connection is
active and that control of the Flextec350x CE
voltage can be made at the LN25x feeder.
The Flextec350x CE Weld terminals On/Remote
toggle should be set "ON". This powers the weld
terminals for an across-the-arc LN25x wire fedder.
The Flextec350x CE Output Local/Remote switch
should be set to "remote" allowing for remote
control of the output at the CrossLinc equipped
feeder.
CV-Innershield
This weld mode is a constant voltage (CV) mode
featuring continuous control from 10 to 45 volts.
It is intended for the FCAW-SS welding process and arc
gouging.
Hot Start – Toggle from the '0' position to the '10'
position to provide more energy during the start of a
weld.
Arc Control – The Arc Control regulates pinch effect.
At the minimum setting (-10), minimizes pinch and
results in a soft arc. At the maximum setting (+10),
maximizes pinch effect and results in a crisp arc.
Weld Terminals On/Remote
When set to the 'ON' position, the weld terminals
are at OCV (open circuit voltage) and ready to
weld. This selection is used for across the arc wire
feeders. The 12-pin connector remote input is used
to adjust the voltage with a master/slave
relationship with the output control dial.
When set to the 'remote' position, output is enabled
through a remote trigger. The 14-pin connector
remote input is used to adjust the voltage with a
master/slave relationship with the output control
dial.
Amperage Display – This display will display three
dashed lines when the machine is in the idle state. This
indicates that amperage is not settable in this weld
mode. While output is enabled, the actual welding
amperage will be displayed. After welding, the meter
holds the actual amperage value for 5 seconds. Output
adjustment while in the "hold" period results in the "prior
to operation" characteristics stated above. The displays
blink indicating that the machine is in the "Hold" period.
