Applying welding programs

To select and apply a MIG welding process and program, a corresponding memory channel must be created.

The use of additional welding programs and Wise and MAX features is possible with X5 standard power source. Pulse power source is required for the MAX Position (optional) process and Pulse+ power source for the WiseRoot+ (optional) and WiseThin+ (optional) processes.
