The Creep start function defines the wire feed speed before the welding arc ignites, that is, before the filler wire comes
in contact with the workpiece. When the arc ignites, the wire feed speed is automatically switched to the normal user-
set speed. The Creep start function is always on.
To adjust the Creep start level, in Control Pad, go to Settings > Start and stop logic > Creep start level. The adjust-
ment range is 10%...90%.

WF end step
Immediately after the arc is switched off, the wire feeder feeds a few extra millimeters of filler wire, so that the wire does
not stick into the contact tip.
To set the WF end step ON or OFF, in Control Pad, go to Settings > Start and stop logic > WF end step.
3.3.3 Using WeldEye services
The WeldEye cloud service consists of several independent modules. When Quality Control or Welding Production Ana-
lysis has been activated, you can use Control Pad and X8 MIG Welder to collect the welding data for the WeldEye service.
For more information on WeldEye, see www.weldeye.com.
To use the WeldEye services, connect the welding machine to the Internet through a WLAN or a wired connection.
For more information, see "Connecting to Kemppi cloud services" on page 77.
