Quick setup
To set the values of the functional parameters for MIG features, use the QUICK SETUP
feature, which you can activate by briey pressing the SETUP button (5).
Select the parameter to adjust using the left-hand side control knob or the button (8)
and then set the parameter value with the right-hand side control knob. The value you
specied is instantly stored in the control panel memory. The following tables list the
parameter values that can be specied for the MIG features.

All setup parameters
The machine has several parameters, whose settings can be specied with the control
panel's SETUP function as follows:
1. Press and hold down the SETUP button (5) for at least 5 seconds.
2. Select the parameter to adjust using the left-hand side control knob. The parameter
name is shown in display left-hand display.
3. Specify the parameter value with the right-hand side control knob. The selected
value is shown in the right-hand display. The parameter’s value is immediately
stored in the memory.
4. Exit the SETUP mode by pressing and holding down the SETUP button again for at
least 5 seconds or by briey pressing the ESC button.
All welding processes have their own setup parameters. For example, adjusting the post-
current for synergic MIG welding does not aect the post-current of normal MIG weld-
ing.
The tables below show the features available in this welding machine and their possible
values.
