DUAL PROCEDURE/MEMORY PANEL
OPERATION
The Dual Procedure/Memory Panel performs three
functions:
• Weld procedure selection
• Memory save and recall
• Limits setting
There are two procedure memories (A and B) and
eight user memories (1-8).
Procedure Memory vs. User Memory
Procedure memory is used while welding. Changes to
the weld procedure (WFS, voltage, arc control, etc.)
immediately change the contents inside the selected
procedure memory.
User memories work by copying the weld procedure
from one of the eight memories into either the “A ” or
“B” procedure. Weld procedures are saved into the
memories only when the operator chooses.
Using Procedure Memories
Procedure memories can be selected by choosing
either "A" or "B" procedure directly with the memory
panel, or by selecting "GUN" and using a dual proce-
dure gun to select between procedure "A" and "B".
When selecting procedures with the gun switch, "A" or
"B" will flash to show which procedure is active.
USER MEMORIES
Recall a memory with memory buttons
To recall a user memory, press one of the eight user
memory buttons. The memory is recalled when the
button is released. Do not hold the button for more
than two seconds when recalling a user memory.
Recall a memory with the gun trigger
If desired, memories 1 through 8 can be recalled with
the gun trigger. For example, to recall memory 3,
quickly pull and release the gun trigger 3 times without
welding. To recall memory 1, quickly pull and release
the gun trigger 9 times without welding. Note: the wire
feeder is factory set with this feature disabled. Use
the SETUP menu and change P.4 to enable memory
recall with the gun trigger.
Save a memory with memory buttons
To save a memory, press and hold the desired memo-
ry button for two seconds. When the button is initially
pressed, the corresponding LED will illuminate. After
two seconds, the LED will turn off. Do not hold the
button for more than 5 seconds when saving a user
memory.
Note that memories may be locked with weld manager
software to prevent accidental overwrite of the memo-
ries. If an attempt is made to save a memory when
memory saving is locked, the message "Memory save
is Disabled!" will appear briefly in the MSP4 display.
