Wire Feed Speed
>> min: adjusts the minimum set value for wire feed speed
>> max: adjusts the maximum set value for wire feed speed
•
Fine tuning: adjusts the voltage (arc length).
•
Dynamics: -10...+10. Adjusts the short circuit behavior. On the minus side, the arc is softer (less spatter). On the plus
side, the arc is harder (the arc is more stable).
•
StartPower: -30...+30. Adjusts the power level for arc ignition.
•
StartLevel: -30...+30. Fine tunes the arc length for arc ignition.
•
StopPower: -30...+30. Adjusts the power level for arc stop.
Pulse
Pulse is a synergic MIG/MAG welding process where the current is pulsed between the base current and the pulse cur-
rent. The advantages of Pulse are a higher welding speed and deposition rate compared to short-arc welding, lower heat
input compared to spray-arc welding, a spatter-free globular arc and smooth appearance of the weld. Pulse is suitable
for all position welding. It is excellent for welding aluminium and stainless steel, especially when the material thickness is
small.
Pulse supports WisePenetration+ and WiseFusion features, as well as various optimized welding programs.
To adjust the welding power / wire feed speed while welding, in the Control Pad's Welding view, turn the left knob.
To fine tune voltage while welding, in the Control Pad's Welding view, turn the right knob.

When you set the wire feed speed, the power source adjusts the voltage and other parameters accordingly (for example,
base current, pulse current, and frequency). In addition, you can adjust the following parameters through Settings >
Parameters:
•
Wire Feed Speed
>> min: adjusts the minimum set value for wire feed speed
>> max: adjusts the maximum set value for wire feed speed
•
Fine tuning: adjusts the voltage (arc length).
