Page 18: Gas Test 1
Design and function Standard signals for free actuation In Phoenix / alpha Q and Tetrix / forceTig a distinction is drawn between error messages that can be reset and those that cannot be reset. 5.5.8 Gas test 1 The signal permits the manual actuation of the gas valve, e.g. to rinse the gas line. The process shielding gas is actuated in Tetrix / forceTig systems with plasma equipment. -
Page 19: Reverse Inching

Page 23: Advanced Control Signal Operation
Design and function Process signals The via control signals setable minimal and maximum values for wire feed speed (MIG/MAG) / welding current (TIG) depend on the job specific settings of parameters DV-MIN/DV-MAX / RANGE-MIN/RANGE-MAX. With this, the upper and lower limits can be set (in the PC300 theses parameters refer to the expert model constants). -
