OPERATION

B-18

The Limits feature allows the operator to set minimum

and maximum values for various parameters depending

on the Weld Mode selected.

Each memory location may have a different set of limits,

even if the Weld Mode is the same. For example:

Memory Location 1 can be set for a maximum wire feed

speed of 140”/min; Memory Location 2 may be set for a

minimum of 100”/min and a maximum of 160”/min and

Memory Location 3 may have no WFS limit set.

Parameters are constrained by the machine limitations or

by memory limits. When the Memory Limits are enabled

the parameter will flash if an attempt is made to set a

value outside of the prescribed limit (if less than the

machine capabilities). The parameter will not flash if an

attempt is made to exceed the machine limits.

NOTE: Weld Modes cannot be selected through the

Limits Setup Menu. They must be chosen and

saved before entering the Limits Menu.
