be the 12-pin connector. The left display will show "Pot", "12P"
(Figure B.7) and the right display will show "Pot", "14P" (Figure
B.8). This setting is stored in system memory and will be
remembered between machine power cycles. This selection will
only be visible for stick (SMAW) modes.

connector choice will revert back to the 12-pin connector. When
the reset occurs, the left display will show " deF", and the right
display will show "AuLt" for 3 seconds until the machine exits the
menu system.
