Latched mode
Sequence
1st cycle
•
Press torch trigger 1
•
HF start pulses jump from the electrode to the workpiece. The arc ignites.
•
Welding current flows and immediately assumes the set start current
ting). HF switches off.
•
Start current flows at least for the start time
2nd cycle
•
Release torch trigger 1.
•
The welding current ramps up to the main current
Switching from the main current AMP to secondary current
•
Press torch trigger 2 or
•
Tap torch trigger 1 (torch modes 1–6).
If torch trigger 2 is pressed together with torch trigger 1 during the main current phase, the welding cur-
rent decreases to the secondary current
Once torch trigger 2 is released, the welding current increases again to the main current AMP in the set
slope time
. The parameters
3rd cycle
•
Press torch trigger 1.
•
The main current decreases to the end-crater current
Once the main current phase
ping torch trigger 1 (third cycle will be omitted).
4th cycle
•
Release torch trigger 1; arc is extinguished.
•
Set gas post-flow time
When the foot-operated remote control is connected, the machine switches automatically to non-latched
operation. The up- and down-slopes are switched off.
Alternative welding start (tapping start):
For the alternative welding start, the durations of the first and second cycle are defined by the set process
times only (tapping the torch trigger in the gas pre-low phase
To activate this function, set a two-digit torch mode (11-1x) at the machine control. This function can also
be deactivated completely when required (welding stop by tapping remains active). To do so, the
rameter must be switched to
