6 USER INTERFACE
1. Process Selection– provides the option of selecting Synergic GMAW or Manual GMAW mode.
2. Settings – provides the option to configure various settings that can be selected or viewed by the
operator on a system level.
•
Language selection
•
Unit of measure (in./mm)
•
Display brightness
•
Trigger Job shift (multiple Jobs available to operator)
•
Factory reset
•
About (software version)
NOTE!
Factory reset will delete all custom configurations and reset the unit to the original factory
configuration. Total arc time will not be deleted or reset to factory configuration.
3. Information – provides the option to configure various settings that can be selected or viewed by
the operator on a system level.
•
Wears and Spares
•
Accessories
•
Filler metals
•
General maintenance
•
User manual
4. Weld Variables – provides the option the set specific welding variables that can enhance the weld
results.
•
Arc dynamics – used to adjust the intensity of the welding arc. Lower arc control settings make
the arc softer with less weld spatter and better wetting action of the weld puddle. Higher arc
control settings give a more driving arc which can increase weld penetration. Setting range -9 to
+9.
•
Preflow time – the time during which shielding gas flows before the arc is struck. Setting range
0.0-5.0 s.
•
Creep start – feeds the wire at a lower wire feed speed than preset wire feed speed, until it
makes electrical contact with the workpiece, transitioning to preset wire feed speed. Set as
percentage of preset wire feed speed.
•
Burnback time – Burnback is a time delay between the time when the wire starts to brake until
the time when the power source disables the welding output. Setting range 0.01-0.35 s.
Too short burnback time will result in a long wire stick out after completion of welding, with the
risk of the wire being stuck in the solidifying weld pool. Too long a burnback time results in a
shorter stick out, with increased risk of the wire burning back to the contact tip.
•
Postflow time – Post-flow is the time during which shielding gas flows after the arc is
extinguished. Setting range 0.0-10.0 s.
5. GMAW Modes:
a) GMAW Synergic mode:
Synergic settings - Allows the user to configure the machine for a specific wire type, wire
diameter, and gas combination. This optimizes the welding parameters from the minimum to
maximum material thicknesses that the machine or process is capable of welding.
NOTE!
Mild Steel (Fe) is used in the example below. Other combinations are available.
