Parameters for "MIG/MAG standard / pulsed-
arc welding" process
GPr... Gas pre-flow time ... 0 - 9.9 s, Factory setting: 0,1 s.
GPo... Gas post-flow time ... 0 - 9.9 s, Factory setting: 0,5 s.
Fdc... Soft-start ... AUT / OFF / 0,5 - maximum w i r e s p e e d
(e.g. 22.0 m/min), Factory setting: AUT
N.B! If Fdc is set to AUT (automatic), the value from the welding
program databank is used. If Fdc values are set manually and
these values are faster than the wirefeed speed that was set for
the welding operation:
- the speed at which the wire is actually fed during feeder-
creep will be the same as the wirefeed speed that was set for
the welding operation
Fdi ... Inching speed ... 0 - maximum wirespeed (e.g. 22.0 m/
min), Factory setting: 10 m/min
bbc ... Burn-back ... +/- 0.20 s, Factory setting: 0
FAC... Factory ... Reset the welding machine to factory settings
Press and hold the MEM button
