When the arc strikes, the current is set to the fi rst level. As long as the START pushbutton
is pressed, the current remains on the fi rst level. Upon releasing the START pushbutton,
the current passes from fi rst to second level within the slope time; once the second level is
reached, this is maintained. The next time the START pushbutton is pressed, the welding
current will be adjusted to the 3rd level within the set slope time. When the START pushbutton
is released welding stops and the post-fl ow procedure is run. The HSA and CRA functions
are inhibited in 3-level mode
Not available with Robot interface activated.
HSA mode
By activating HSA mode, the operator can adjust the fi rst current level, the time spent at the
fi rst current level and the fi rst level ramp time at the fi nal welding current.
When the START command is activated, the set values are automatically carried out.
CRA mode
By activating CRA mode, the operator can adjust the fi nal current level (crater current), the
time spent at fi nal current level and the time of the ramp down from the welding current to
the fi nal current. When the START command is deactivated, the set values are automatically
carried out.
