Settings
| Parameter | Parameter value | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Remote | ON/OFF Default = OFF |
Select whether remote is used. Note: This setting does not affect and is not affected by the HR55 remote control. |
| Remote selection | Hand remote / Gun remote Default = Hand remote |
Note: This setting does not affect and is not affected by the HR55 remote control. |
| Remote mode | Wire feed speed / Channel Default = Wire feed speed |
This determines what is changed with the remote, wire feed speed or memory channel (available channels: 1...5). Note: If the HR55 remote control is also connected, the parameter that is selected here cannot be adjusted with the HR55 remote control. |
| Remote min. | Defined by the active welding program | Minimum and maximum limits for the remote wire feed speed adjustment. |
| Remote max. | Defined by the active welding program | |
| Cable calibration (MIG only) |
Start/Cancel | Calibration information on the previous calibration is also shown. Refer to Calibrating welding cable for cable calibration. |
| Water cooler | OFF/Auto/ON Default = Auto |
When ON is selected, the coolant is circulated continually, and when Auto is selected, the coolant is circulated only during welding. |
| Cycle timer | ON/OFF Default = OFF |
Cycle timer is a welding function that automatically produces a weld or welds of predefined duration. For more information, refer to Cycle timer. |
| - Cycle arc time | 0.0 ... 60.0 s Default = 2.0 s |
|
| - Cycle pause | ON/OFF Default = OFF |
|
| - Cycle pause time | 0.1 ... 3.0 s, step 0.1 s Default = 0.1 s |
|
| WF end step | OFF/ON Default = OFF |
Wire feed end step feature prevents the filler wire from sticking to the contact tip when the welding ends. |
| Subfeeder | Subfeeder model / OFF Default = OFF |
If a compatible subfeeder is connected, select the subfeeder from the list. Compatible subfeeders: SuperSnake GTX 10 m, 15 m, 20 m, 25 m, Binzel PP401D, Binzel PP36D. Note: For the best possible welding result when using the pulse and MAX welding processes with a subfeeder device, we recommend a maximum subfeeder cable length of 10 meters (SuperSnake GTX 10 m). This recommendation assumes that you are using a 5-meter welding gun cable and a 15-meter earth return cable together with the subfeeder. In some cases, it is possible to weld with pulse and MAX welding processes with a 15-meter subfeeder device, but a test weld is advised. |
| Arc verification | OFF, 1 ... 365 Default = OFF |
This defines the number of days until the next device verification reminder. |
| Weld data duration | 0...10 s, step 1 Default = 5 s |
This defines how long the weld data summary is shown after each weld. |
| Safe wire inch (MIG only) |
OFF/ON Default = ON |
When ON, and the arc doesn't ignite, the filler wire is fed 5 cm. When OFF, 5 m of filler wire is fed. |
| Gas guard (not available in Master M 353) |
ON/OFF Default = OFF |
Gas guard prevents welding without shielding gas. |
| Voltage display | Arc voltage / Terminal voltage Default = Arc voltage |
This defines which is shown on the control panel display, arc or terminal voltage. |
| Wire inch | 0.5 ... 18.0 m/min Default = 5.0 m/min |
Drive the filler wire forward (with arc off). |
| Gas test | 0 … 60 s Default = 20 s |
Test the shielding gas flow and flush the gas line.
|
| Language | Available languages | |
| PIN code | ON/OFF | 4-digit PIN code for locking parameters and settings. PIN lock does not prevent welding, browsing Powerlog levels or selecting memory channel. |
| Demo time (not available in Master M 353) | OFF/ON | The demo time feature allows you to try out optional welding features and functions without a license for a limited time. The total available demo time is 3 hours. The demo time passes only when welding using a welding feature you don't have a license for. When the demo time is set to ON, the remaining time is shown on the display. |
| Device info |
|
Shows information on the device and its usage. |
| Factory reset | Reset/Cancel Default = Cancel |
Restores factory settings. Note that the arc verification parameter value is also reset. |
