Selecting welding program

A welding program combines the optimal welding settings for a given welding job. Welding programs are saved in the
memory of the power source. Welding programs and memory channels are managed through Control Pad. For more
information on saving welding programs, see "Saving new welding programs" on page 84.
The welding programs in X8 MIG Welder suit the most common wire types, wire diameters, shielding gases and different
base materials. Programs can be purchased at Kemppi DataStore. Kemppi also offers Synergic Customized Welding pro-
grams which are designed and created according to customer-specific welding applications. For more information, con-
tact your local Kemppi dealer.
