| Pre gas |
Min/Max = 0 ... 9.9 s, step 0.1 s
0 = OFF
Default = auto |
Welding function that starts the shielding gas flow before the arc ignites. This ensures that the metal does not
come into contact with air at the start of the weld. Time value is preset by the user. Used for all metals, but especially for stainless steel, aluminum and titanium. |
| Post gas |
Min/Max = 0 ... 9.9 s, step 0.1 s
0 = OFF
Default = auto |
Welding function that continues the shielding gas flow after the arc has extinguished. This ensures that the hot
weld does not come into contact with air after the arc is extinguished, protecting the weld and also the electrode. Used for all metals. Especially stainless steel and titanium require longer post gas times. |
| Creep start level |
Min/Max = 10 ... 90 %, step 1 %
Default = auto |
The Creep start function defines the wire feed speed before the welding arc ignites, that is, before the filler wire
comes in contact with the workpiece. When the arc ignites, the wire feed speed is automatically switched to the normal user-set speed. The Creep start function is always on. |
| Touch Sense Ignition |
ON/OFF
Default = OFF |
Touch Sense Ignition delivers minimum spatter and stabilizes the arc immediately after ignition. |
| Crater fill |
ON/OFF
Default = OFF |
When welding with high power, a crater is usually formed at the end of the weld. The Crater fill function
decreases the welding power / wire feed speed at the end of the welding job so that the crater can be filled using a
lower power level. The Crater fill level, voltage and time (only in 2T trigger mode) are preset by the user. |
| - Crater fill time |
Min/Max = 0.1 ... 5 s, step 0.1 s
Default = 1.0 s |
| - Crater fill wire feed speed |
Min/Max = 0.5 ... 25 m/min
Step: 0.05 (if wire feed speed < 5 m/min), 0.1 (if wire feed speed >= 5 m/min)
Default: 5 m/min
|
| - Crater fill voltage |
Min/Max = 8 ... 60 V, step 0.1 V
Default = 18 V
|
| WF end step |
ON/OFF
Default = OFF |
Wire feed end step feature prevents the filler wire from sticking to the contact tip when the welding ends. |
| Dynamics |
Min/Max = -10.0 ... +10.0, step 0.2
Default = 0 |
Controls the short circuit behavior of the arc. The lower the value the softer the arc, the higher the value the
rougher the arc. |
| Post current |
-30 ... +30, step 1
Default = 0 |
Post current setting affects the wire length at the weld end. This also enables the optimum wire length for the start of the next weld. |
| Wire feed speed min |
Min/Max = 0.5 ... 25 m/min, step 0.1
Default = 0.5 m/min |
Minimum and maximum limits for the wire feed speed adjustment. |
| Wire feed speed max |
Min/Max = 0.5 ... 25 m/min, step 0.1
Default = 25 m/min |
| Voltage min |
Min/Max = According to welding equipment specifications, step 0.1 |
Minimum and maximum limits for the welding voltage adjustment. |
| Voltage max |
Min/Max = According to welding equipment specifications, step 0.1 |
| Remote mode |
OFF/Remote/Gun
Default = OFF |
If remote controller is not connected, this selection is not available.
Note: This setting does not affect and is not affected by the HR55 remote control.
|
| Water cooler |
OFF/Auto/ON
Default = OFF |
|
| Wire retract |
OFF/ON |
This is an automatic wire retract feature. Once the arc is extinguished, the wire is retracted for additional safety. The user can change the wire retract delay and length settings. |
| - Retract delay |
2...10 s, step 1
Default = 5 s |
| - Retract length |
1...10 cm, step 1
Default = 2 cm |
| Weld data averages |
Without slopes / Entire weld
Default = Without slopes |
This feature allows the user to change how the weld data averages are calculated: with or without the slope phases in the beginning and in the end of the weld.
This setting affects the calculation of the averages for the following: welding voltage (terminal and arc voltage), welding current, welding power
and wire feed speed. |
| Voltage display mode |
Terminal voltage / Arc voltage
Default = Arc voltage |
This defines which is shown on the control panel display, terminal or arc voltage. |
| Safe wire inch |
ON/OFF
Default = OFF |
When ON, and the arc doesn't ignite, the filler wire is fed 5 cm. When OFF, 5 m of filler wire is fed. |
Cable calibration
|
Calibrate/Cancel |
The date and time and the calibration information of the previous calibration is also shown.
Refer to Calibrating welding cable for cable calibration. |
Subfeeder
(with X5 Wire Feeder 300 only) |
Subfeeder model / OFF
Default = OFF |
If a compatible subfeeder is connected, select the subfeeder from the list.
Compatible subfeeders:
SuperSnake GTX /GT02S(10m, 15m, 20m, 25m), Binzel PP401D,
Binzel PP36D.
Note: With SuperSnake GT02S models, only motor synchronization is supported.
