7.1 "PROCESS PARAMETERS" MENU.
Submenu "Process Parameters" is accessed through the"
Main Menu" or directly by means of key T7 (PAR). Here
are listed all the parameters that the operator may modify
according to the selected welding process (leds L10, L11,
L12).
In the "Process Parameters" you may save directly by
pressing key T6 (MEM)(see par. 7.2.1).
7.1.1 "Process".
yellow band but you also scroll all available processes.
The welding that can be selected are:
MIG
Synergic MIG/MAG welding.
MIG HD
High deposit synergic MIG/MAG welding.
MIG Root Synergic MIG/MAG welding for drooping ver-
tical welding
MIG Man
Traditional MIG/MAG welding.
TIG
Welding process with non-meltable electrode
suited for all types of metals; aluminium, mag-
nesium and brass excluded. The arc strikes
by contact without high frequency.
MMA
Welding process with coated, meltable elec-
trode.
7.1.2 "Material" (only in synergic MIG/MAG processes).
With this item you select the type of welding wire mate-
rial.
7.1.3 "Diameter" (only in synergic MIG/MAG processes).
The welding wire diameters are related to the selected
material.
7.1.4 "Gas" (in MIG/MAG processes).
Gas types that can be used are related to the selected
material.
7.1.5 "Arc Length Corr" -Arc length correction.
(Available in synergic MIG/MAG, MIG Root).

7.1.6 "Inductance Corr" - Impedance value correction.

cesses, MIG HD excepted)
Allows correction of the impedance value.

7.1.7 "Start Mode" -selecting the welding start mode.
2T (active in MIG/MAG and TIG processes).
The machine begins welding when the torch trigger is
pressed, and stops when released.
4T (active in MIG/MAG and TIG processes).
To begin welding press and release the torch trigger;
to stop welding press and release it again.
3L (active in synergic MIG/MAG processes).
Welding starts when the torch trigger is pressed; the
welding current set by means of "Start current" will
be used. This current will be kept as long as the torch
trigger is held down; when it is released the current
returns to the preset value in the time set as "Slope
time" and it is kept until the torch trigger is pressed
again. When the torch trigger is pressed again, the
welding current will connect to the third current ("Cra-
ter- fi ller current-") set with parameter "Crater Cur-
rent" according to the time set by "Slope time" and
it will be maintained until the torch trigger is released.
When the torch trigger is released welding stops.
