Using HR53 remote control

When connected, the HR53 remote control is automatically in use.

With the optional HR53 remote control, you can select memory channels and adjust wire feed speed, welding current, welding voltage or voltage fine tuning depending on the welding process used.

1. LCD display

>>  Displays the adjusted parameter and notifies if there is an error ("Err") in the welding system.

2. Plus/minus (+/-) buttons

>>  Changes the parameter value.

3. Left/right arrow buttons

>>  Changes between adjustable parameters/views.

Remote control display items

a. Process and/or selected memory channel information (process is indicated with a single letter: M = MIG/MAG, S = MMA, G = Gouging)
b. MIG/MAG: Wire feed speed and fine tuning symbols
c. Adjusted parameter value (or error indicator)
d. Adjusted parameter unit

When the parameter is adjusted with the remote and the parameter value doesn't reflect the one saved on the selected memory channel anymore, this is indicated on the display by showing only the memory channel number without the channel box around it (MIG/MAG only):

Remote control views and operation

Change between the views by pressing the left/right arrow buttons.

Memory channel view (MIG/MAG only): The memory channel is changed by pressing the +/- buttons. Long press of a +/- button scrolls the parameter values faster.
Process selection view: This allows selecting between MIG/MAG welding, MMA welding and gouging.
Welding power view: Depending on the used welding process, wire feed speed or current is adjusted by pressing the +/- buttons. Long press of a +/- button scrolls the parameter values faster.
Voltage/Fine tuning view: Depending on the welding process used, voltage or welding process specific parameter is adjusted by pressing the +/- buttons. Long press of the +/- button scrolls the parameter values faster. Long press of the right arrow button switches between different parameter sets, as applicable.
Safety lock: By pressing the left/right arrow buttons simultaneously for 2 seconds, the equipment safety lock can be enabled and disabled.

Long press of the left arrow button saves the adjusted parameters on the currently selected channel.

X3 power sources can be used for MMA welding and carbon arc gouging also without a wire feeder. The HR53 remote control is required for this standalone use.
When a MIG welding torch remote control is used to select a memory channel or adjust the wire feed speed, the corresponding function is disabled in the HR53 remote control.
