Description

MULTI-FUNCTION INVERTER GENERATOR FOR MIG-MAG, MMA, and TIG WELDING

The DIGITECH vision PULSE series of multi-function equip- ments are characterised by cutting edge, attractive design combined with latest generation inverter technology and digital welding control. Innovative, technologically advanced, robust, and easy to use, they can be used for very high quality MIG-MAG and Pulse MIG welding for all materials and especially stainless steel and aluminium, reducing repeat work due to spray to a minimum, using electrodes, and in TIG with “Lift” type ignition, and they represent the best solution for all industrial fields and all specialist welding purposes that call for high precision and repeatable results. DIGITECH vision PULSE equipments, fitted with an innovative synergic digital control, colour display, and the extraordinary VISION-ARC meet the needs of those that wish to combine synergy with complete control of all welding parameters. They come in a version with a separate feeder (HT4). These are systems open to the future evolution of technology the control software can be kept up to date with the latest versions with the help of a personal computer.

Operating features

The main feature of the welding unit DIGITECH vision PULSE 3300-4000-5000 are:

• Metallic main structure with shockproof plastic front frames.

• Controls protected by a visor.

•

Spatter free exceptional welding characteristics in both MIG/ MAG, MIG Pulsed and MIG Dual Pulsed on any material and with any gas.

•

High welding performance in both MMA and TIG by “Lift” mode striking.

•

Synergic digital control (DH) of all welding parameters, displayed via the innovative colour display, also featuring the following functions:

Allows less expert operators to regulate all welding parameters in a user-friendly way and extremely easily, choosing the type of program on the basis of the material, wire diameter, and gas used.

- Innovative “VISION ARC” software for controlling all welding parameters.

With the special MIG torches you can adjust the welding parameters at a distance straight from the torch.

- BURN BACK control. At the end of each weld, in any condition and with any material, the digital control ensures a perfect wire cut, prevents the typical “wire globule” from forming and ensures correct arc restriking.

WSC Wire start control. This arc striking control device prevents wire from sticking to the workpiece or torch nozzle and ensures precise and smooth arc striking, particularly when welding aluminium.

Welding parameters that are controlled digitally by a microprocessor, are monitored and modified in just a few seconds, maintaining a consistently precise and stable arc as the welding conditions continue to vary due to the movement of the torch and the irregularities of the parts to be welded.

Exclusive SWS “Smart Welding Stop” system at the end of TIG welding. Lifting up the torch without switching off the arc will introduce a slope down and it will switch off automatically.

“Energy Saving” function to operate the power source cooling fan and the torch water cooling only when necessary.

- Auto-diagnostic feature for trouble shooting.

- Password-controlled total or partial equipment access.

• High electrical performance resulting in a reduction in energy consumption.

• Remote parameter adjustment directly from HT4 feeder.

Technical data

The general technical data of the system are summarized in table 1.

Usage limits (IEC 60974-1)

The use of a welder is typically discontinuous, in that it is made up of effective work periods (welding) and rest periods (for the positioning of parts, the replacement of wire and underflushing operations etc. This welder is dimensioned to supply a I2 max nominal current in complete safety for a period of work of 40/50% of the total usage time. The regulations in force establish the total usage time to be 10 minutes. The work cycle is considered to be 40/50% of this period of time. Exceeding the work cycle allowed could cause a trip switch to trip (for further information see the DH control panel manual), which protects the components inside the welding machine against dangerous overheating. After several minutes the overheat cut-off rearms automatically and the welder is ready for use again.

How to lift up the system

Strap the system safely and securely in the slings working from the bottom, then lift up from the ground. This welding machine has a robust handle built into the frame for moving the equipment.

NOTE: These hoisting and transportation devices conform to European standards. Do not use other hoisting and transportation systems.

Opening the packaging

The system essentially consists of:

• DIGITECH vision PULSE 3300 or 4000 or 5000 weld unit.

• Separately:

- HT4 wire-feeder unit (supplied separately).

- MIG-MAG welding torch (optional).

Wire-feeder/generator interconnection cable (supplied separately).

- Coolant unit for welding torch (optional).

- Trolley to carry it around (optional).

Perform the following operations on receiving the apparatus:

•

Remove the welding generator and all accessories and components from the packaging.

•

Check that the welding apparatus is in good condition; otherwise immediately inform the retailer or distributor.

• Check that all the ventilation grilles are open and that there is nothing to obstruct the correct air flow.

Installation and connections

The installation site for the system must be carefully chosen in order to ensure its satisfactory and safe use. The user is responsible for the installation and use of the system in accordance with the producer’s instructions contained in this manual. Before installing the system the user must take into consideration the potential electromagnetic problems in the work area. In particular, we suggest that you should avoid installing the system close to:

• Signalling, control and telephone cables.

• Radio and television transmitters and receivers.

• Computers and control and measurement instruments.

• Security and protection instruments.

Persons fitted with pace-makers, hearing aids and similar equipment must consult their doctor before going near a machine in operation. The equipment’s installation environment must comply to the protection level of the frame.

The welding unit is characterized by the following classes:

• IP 23 S protection class indicates that the generator can be used in both interior and exterior environments.

•

The “S” usage class indicates that the generator can be employed in environments with a high risk of electrical shocks.

This system is cooled by means of the forced circulation of air, and must therefore be placed in such a way that the air may be easily sucked in and expelled through the apertures made in the frame. Assemble the system in the following way:

• Assemble the trolley.

• Fixing the cooling unit to the trolley.

•

Fixing of the welding machine to the trolley and the cooling unit (electrical and plumbing connections).

• Fitting the feeder unit to the generator.

• Connect up the welder to the mains.

•

Connect up the wire-feeder/generator interconnection cable.

• Connect up the welding cables.

Instructions for fitting the individual components / optional extras are contained in the relevant packaging.

Connection to the electrical supply

Connection of the machine to the user line (electrical current) must be performed by qualified personnel. Before connecting the welding machine to the mains power supply, make sure that rated voltage and frequency correspond to those provided by the mains power supply and that the welding machine’s power switch is turned to “O”.

Use the welder’s own plug to connect it up to the main power supply. Proceed as follows if you have to replace the plug:

•

3 conducting wires are needed for connecting the machine to the supply.

•

The fourth, which is YELLOW GREEN in colour is used for making the “GROUND” connection.

Connect a suitable load of normalised plug (3P+T) to the power cable and provide for an electrical socket complete with fuses or an automatic switch. The ground terminal must be connected to the ground conducting wire (YELLOW-GREEN) of the supply.

Table 2 shows the capacity values that are recommended for fuses in the line with delays.

NOTE: Any extensions to the power cable must be of a suitable diameter, and absolutely not of a smaller diameter than the special cable supplied with the machine.

FIG. A

MIG-MAG / PULSE MIG / DOUBLE

PULSE MIG Welding

To begin MIG-MAG / PULSE MIG / DOUBLE PULSE MIG welding, carry out the following tasks (with the machine switched off).

1 - Connecting the gas hose and torch (Fig. B1-B2)

•

Connect the gas hose to the pressure reducer fitted on the cylinder beforehand.

• Screw the torch onto the centralised connection on the front panel of the feeder and connect the feed (blue) and return (red) water hoses for cooling the torch to the respective (blue and red) rapid couplings on the front panel of the feeder.

2A - Connecting the cables - Welding with a POSITIVE POLE TORCH (Fig. B1)

1) The feeder - generator connecting cable is used to connect the welding machine to the feeder.

WARNING: Do not disconnect the wire-feeder until the machine has been switched off.

Connect up the interconnection cables (power cable, an-

cillary wiring and gas tube) to the special attachments and couplings shown in Fig. B1.

The delivery (blue coloured) and return (red coloured) wa-

ter tubes, used for cooling the torch of the welding machine, are part of the interconnection cable and should be connected as follows:

FIG. B1

FIG. B2

Interconnection cable on generator side: connect up

• tubes to their rapid couplings (blue and red coloured) at the back of the coolant system.

• Wire feeder side connecting cable: connect the red and blue pipes to their respective bulkhead grommets on the rear panel of the feeder.

2) Connect up the earthing system cable to the rapid coupling marked by a - (negative) symbol and then the relevant ground clamps to the piece being welded or to its support in an area free from rust, paint and grease. Using particularly long earthing cables reduces the voltage and causes some problems from increased resistance and inductance of the cables that could cause faulty welding. Follow instructions to avoid these problems:

•

Use earthing and extension cables with appropriate section.

• Lay out the cables as a flat as possible to prevent them

from coiling up.

2B - Connecting the cables - Welding with a NEGATIVE POLE TORCH (Fig. B2)

1) Connect the generator - feeder connection cable using the extension cable in addition to invert the polarity (optional).

WARNING: Do not disconnect the wire-feeder until the machine has been switched off.

Connect up the interconnection cables (power cable, an-

cillary wiring and gas tube) to the special attachments and couplings shown in Fig. B2.

The delivery (blue coloured) and return (red coloured) wa-

ter tubes, used for cooling the torch of the welding machine, are part of the interconnection cable and should be connected as follows:

•

Interconnection cable on generator side: connect up tubes to their rapid couplings (blue and red coloured) at the back of the coolant system.

• Wire feeder side connecting cable: connect the red and blue pipes to their respective bulkhead grommets on the rear panel of the feeder.

2) Connect up the earthing system cable to the rapid coupling marked by a + (positive) symbol and then the relevant ground clamps to the piece being welded or to its support in an area free from rust, paint and grease. Using particularly long earthing cables reduces the voltage and causes some problems from increased resistance and inductance of the cables that could cause faulty welding. Follow instructions to avoid these problems:

•

Use earthing and extension cables with appropriate section.

• Lay out the cables as a flat as possible to prevent them

from coiling up.

3 - Welding

1) Switch the welding machine on by moving the power supply switch to I (Pos. 4, Fig. A).

2) Make the adjustments and do the parameter settings on the control panel (for further information see the DH control panel manual).

3) Load the wire (see the relevant paragraph in the feeder manual) using the motor test button, after having removed the wire guide nozzle from the torch to allow the wire to come out freely during loading (remember that the wire guide nozzle must correspond to the diameter of the wire used).

4) Open the tap on the cylinder slowly and adjust the reducer knob to obtain a pressure of about 1,3 to 1,7 bar, and then activate the gas test button and regulate the flow to a value between 14 and 20 lit/min to suit the current used for welding.

5) The welding machine is ready to weld. Make the adjustments and select the parameters for the feeder or, if selected, on the control panel (for further information see the DH control panel manual). Start welding by moving close to the welding point and press the torch button.

FIG. C

6) Once welding has been completed remove any slag, switch off the machine (which is only to be done when the fan is not running), and close the gas cylinder.

Spot welding

The substantial difference with MIG-MAG welding is essentially related to the torch and the adjustments that must be made on the DH control panel.

•

The gas guide nozzle specifically for spot welding must be fitted on the torch (see Fig. C).

• On the DH control panel, select the spot welding mode and

set the time.

To begin spot welding:

•

Press the torch button to start the welding current and wire feed.

• When the spot welding time expires, the wire feed stops au-

tomatically.

•

When the torch button is pushed again a new welding cycle starts.

• Release the torch button.

FIG. C

FIG. D

Interval welding

The basic difference from spot welding is the addition of an additional time known as the “stitch pause”. On the DH control panel, select the interval welding mode and then set the following times for it:

• Stitch time.

• Stitch pause.

To begin interval welding:

•

Press the torch button to start the welding current and wire feed.

•

At this point the welding machine automatically carries out a succession of welded portions followed by a pause, according to the times entered previously. This procedure stops automatically only when the torch button is released.

•

When the torch button is pushed again the torch begins a new interval welding cycle.

Aluminium welding

To weld with aluminum wire proceed as follows:

• Replace the drive rolls with special ones for aluminium wire.

• Use a torch with a 3M cable and a carbon Teflon sheath.

•

Set the pressure between the drive rollers at the minimum, by turning the screw provided.

•

Use argon gas at a pressure of 1,3 - 1,7 bar and regulate the flow to a value between 14 and 20 lit/min to suit the current used for welding.

Electrode welding (MMA)

On the DIGITECH vision PULSE 3300-4000-5000 machine, electrode welding is used to weld most metals (different types of steel, etc.) using coated rutilic and basic electrodes with diameters ranging from Ø 1.6 mm to Ø 6 mm, and devices that the user can adjust for “Arc Force”, “Hot Start”, and Anti-sticking functions to avoid the electrodes sticking.

1) Connecting the welding cables (Fig. D):

Disconnect the machine from the mains power supply and

connect the welding cables to the output terminals (Posi-

FIG. E

tive and Negative) of the welding machine, attaching them to the clamp and ground with the polarity specified for the type of electrode being used (Fig.D). Always follow the electrode manufacturer’s instructions. The welding cables must be as short as possible, they must be near to one another, positioned at or near floor level. Do not touch the electrode clamp and the ground clamp simultaneously.

2) Switch the welding machine on by moving the power supply switch to I (Pos. 3, Fig. A).

3) Make the adjustments and do the parameter settings on the control panel (for further information see the DH control panel manual).

4) Carry out welding by moving the torch to the workpiece. Strike the arc (press the electrode quickly against the metal and then lift it) to melt the electrode, the coating of which forms a protective residue. Then continue welding at an inclination of about 60° compared with the metal in relation to the direction of welding.

PART TO BE WELDED

The part to be welded must always be connected to ground in order to reduce electromagnetic emission. Much attention must be afforded so that the ground connection of the part to be welded does not increase the risk of accident to the user or the risk of damage to other electric equipment. When it is necessary to connect the part to be welded to ground, you should make a direct connection between the part and the ground shaft. In those countries in which such a connection is not allowed, connect the part to be welded to ground using suitable capacitors, in compliance with the national regulations.

WELDING PARAMETERS

Table 3 shows some general indications for the choice of electrode, based on the thickness of the parts to be welded. The values of current to use are shown in the table 5 with the respective electrodes for the welding of common steels and low-grade alloys. These data have no absolute value and are indicative data only. For a precise choice follow the instructions provided by the electrode manufacturer.

The current to be used depends on the welding positions and the type of joint, and it increases according to the thickness and dimensions of the part. The current intensity to be used for the different types of welding, within the field of regulation shown in table 4 is:

• High for plane, frontal plane and vertical upwards welding.

• Medium for overhead welding.

•

Low for vertical downwards welding and for joining small pre-

heated pieces. A fairly approximate indication of the average current to use in the welding of electrodes for ordinary steel is given by the following formula:

I = 50 × (Øe - 1)

Where: I = intensity of the welding current Øe = electrode diameter Example: For electrode diameter 4 mm

I = 50 × (4 - 1) = 50 × 3 = 150A

TIG welding with “Lift”

In the TIG process welding is achieved by melting the two metal pieces to be joined, with the possible addition of material from the outside, using an arc ignited by a tungsten electrode. The “Lift” type ignition used in DIGITECH vision PULSE equipments makes it possible to reduce tungsten inclusions on ignition to a minimum. The molten bath and the electrode are protected by and inert gas (for example, Argon). This type of welding is used to weld thin sheet metal or when elevated quality is required.

1) Connecting the welding cables (Fig. E):

•

Connect one end of the gas hose to the gas connecter on the TIG torch and the other end to the pressure reducer on the inert gas cylinder (Argon or similar).

• With the machine switched off:

Connect the ground cable to the snap-on connector marked + (positive).

Connect the relative ground clamp to the workpiece or to the workpiece support in an area free of rust, paint, grease, etc..

Connect the TIG torch power cable to the snap-on con-

2) Switch the welding machine on by moving the power sup-

nector marked - (negative).

ply switch to I (Pos. 3, Fig. A).

3) Make the adjustments and do the parameter settings on the control panel (for further information see the DH control panel manual).

4) Open the gas cylinder and regulate the flow by adjusting the valve on the TIG torch by hand.

5) Ignite the electric arc by contact, using a decisive, quick movement without dragging the tungsten electrode on the piece to be welded (“Lift” type ignition).

6) The welder has a SWS “Smart Welding Stop” system for the end of TIG welding. Lifting up the torch without switching off the arc will introduce a slope down and it will switch off automatically.

7) When you have finished welding remember to shut the valve on the gas cylinder.

Table 5 shows the currents to use with the respective electrodes for TIG DC welding. This input is not absolute but is for your guidance only; read the electrode manufacturers’ instructions for a specific choice. The diameter of the electrode to use is directly proportional to the current being used for welding.

Maintenance

ATTENTION: Cut off the power supply to the equipment be-

fore effecting any internal inspection.

DIGITECH vision PULSE 3300-4000-5000

IMPORTANT: For fully electronic welding machines, remov-

ing the dust by sucking it into the machine by the fans, is of utmost importance.

In order to achieve correct functioning of the machine, proceed as described:

•

Periodic removal of accumulations of dirt and dust inside the equipment using compressed air. Do not point the jet of air directly at the electrical parts as this could damage them.

•

Periodical inspection for worn cables or loose connections that could cause overheating.

TORCH

The torch is subjected to high temperatures and is also stressed by traction and torsion. We recommend not to twist the wire and not to use the torch to pull the welder. As a result of the above the torch will require frequent maintenance such as:

• Cleaning welding splashes from the gas diffuser so that the gas flows freely.

• Substitution of the contact point when the hole is deformed.

•

Cleaning of the wire guide liner using trichloroethylene or specific solvents.

• Check of the insulation and connections of the power cable; the connections must be in good electrical and mechanical condition.

SPARE PARTS

Original spares have been specifically designed for our equipment. The use of spares that are not original may cause vari-

ations in the performance and reduce the safety level of the equipment. We are not liable for damage due to use of spare parts that are not original.

Optional

NOTE: The digital control unit of the generator is fitted with a

control recognition device which allows it to identify which device is connected and take action accordingly.

REMOTE CONTROL ANALOGIC RC

This command (that must be plugged into the relevant connector on the front panel of the HT4 drawing unit):

•

Completely replaces the ENCODER - A knob on the HT4 feeder’s front panel.

•

Partially (depending on the welding process selected) replaces the ENCODER - V knob on the HT4 feeder’s front panel (for further information see the DH control panel manual).

AIR AND/OR WATER COOLED UP/DOWN TORCH

This command (that must be plugged into the relevant connector on the front panel of the HT4 drawing unit) works as an alternative to:

• The ENCODER - A knob on the HT4 feeder’s front panel. In “synergic” MIG MAG and “manual” MIG MAG welding processes, by pressing the two right (+) and left (-) buttons you can regulate the values for the synergic welding parameters.

• The ENCODER - V knob on the HT4 feeder’s front panel. In the JOB welding process, by pressing the two right (+) and left (-) buttons you can scroll the welding points set previously.

The pointing out of any difficulties

and their elimination

The supply line is attributed with the cause of the most common difficulties. In the case of breakdown, proceed as follows:

1) Check the value of the supply voltage.

2) Check that the power cable is perfectly connected to the

plug and the supply switch.

3) Check that the power fuses are not burned out or loose.

4) Check whether the following are defective:

• The switch that supplies the machine

• The plug socket in the wall

• The generator switch

NOTE: Given the required technical skills necessary for the repair of the generator, in case of breakdown we advise you to contact skilled personnel or our technical service department.

Replacing the digital interface PCB

Proceed as follows:

• Unscrew the 4 screws fastening the front rack panel.

• Remove both the adjustment knobs.

• Extract wiring connectors from the digital interface PCB.

• Unscrew the nuts and washers on the support.

•

Remove the digital interface PCB by lifting it out of its supports.

•

Proceed vice versa to assemble the new digital interface PCB.

Introduction

This manual describes the functions of the software operating the following control panels:

• DH 33 + HT4.

• DH 40 + HT4.

• DH 50 + HT4.

Functioning of the panels listed above is identical (the functions are the same but the characteristics differ depending on the type of machine they are fitted on (e.g.: current regulation field).

General notes

•

Any adjustments/changes made on the welder control panel are also displayed automatically on the drag-and-drop control panel and vice versa, the images on the displays of both weld system components could however differ one from the other, as the displays are consistent with adjustments/changes but also independent as far as visualization is concerned.

•

The adjustments / changes made are immediately available to the operator, unless indicated otherwise in the manual.

WELDING MODE SELECTION Key

Each time this is pushed the following welding modes can be selected (only for pulsed and double pulsed MIG, synergic and manual welding processes) on the feeder (on the welding machine the welding mode is selected using a specific menu - see the appropriate paragraphs) according to a specific sequence:

2T LED

4T LED

WELDING MODE SELECTION LED

CRATER LED

SPOT LED

TWO STROKE (2T)

Pressing the TORCH TRIGGER starts the welding cycle, which will stop when it is released.

FOUR STROKE (4T)

1) Pressing and releasing the TORCH TRIGGER will start the welding cycle.

2) Pressing and releasing the TORCH TRIGGER will stop the welding cycle.

CRATER 2T

1) When the TORCH TRIGGER is pushed the arc ignites and the parameters assume the values for the “initial crater” for a time set by means of the INITIAL CRATER DURATION (F10) function.

After that the parameter values become those for “welding” for a time defined by the INITIAL SLOPE (F11) function.

2) When the TORCH TRIGGER is released the parameters take on the “final crater” values for a time set by means of the FINAL CRATER TIME (F15) function, for a period of time set using the FINAL SLOPE (F12) function..

CRATER 4T

1) When the TORCH TRIGGER is pushed the arc ignites and the parameters assume the values for the “initial crater”.

2) When the TORCH TRIGGER is released the parameters take on the “welding” values for a time set using the INITIAL SLOPE (F11) function.

3) When the TORCH TRIGGER is pushed again the parameters take on the “final crater” values for a time defined using the FINAL SLOPE (F12) function.

4) Releasing the TORCH TRIGGER will end the welding cycle.

SPOT WELDING

This is used so that on pressing the TORCH TRIGGER spot welding is done for a time period set beforehand (in seconds), after which the arc switches off automatically.

To begin stitch welding:

1) Press the TORCH TRIGGER to start the welding current and wire feed.

At this point the welding machine automatically carries out a succession of welded portions followed by a pause, according to

the times entered previously.

This procedure stops automatically only when the TORCH TRIGGER is released.

2) When the TORCH TRIGGER is pushed again the torch begins a new interval welding cycle.

■ STANDARD

1) When the TORCH TRIGGER is pushed the arc ignites and the parameters assume the values for the “initial crater”.

2) When the TORCH TRIGGER is released the parameters take on the “welding” values for a time set using the INITIAL SLOPE (F11) function.

3) When the TORCH TRIGGER is pushed and released within 1 second, the parameters activated are those set for the “cycle” functions. The operation can be repeated by switching between the “cycle” level and the “welding” level an infinite number of times.

4) When the TORCH TRIGGER is pushed and held down for a period of time of more than 1 second, the parameters activated are those with the values for the “final crater” for a period of time defined using the FINAL SLOPE (F12) function.

Releasing the TORCH TRIGGER will end the welding cycle.

■ ADVANCED

In ADVANCED operating mode, in addition to the settings described above, the welder is able to set the up “slope” (FIRST SLOPE (F18)) and down “slope” (SECOND SLOPE (F21)) for the “cycle” level.

6 - ACTIVATING THE VRD DEVICE MMA

The Voltage Reduction Device (VRD) is a safety device that reduces voltage. It prevents voltages forming on the output terminals that may pose a danger to people. The standard settings and those defined beforehand by do not provide for the VRD to be active on the welding machine and so the VISION S

If the operator wishes to weld in MMA using the VRD device (which must be done with the welding machine switched off), they must:

1) Use a suitable screwdriver to unscrew the 4 screws that fix the DH control panel to the welding machine.

2) Remove the “VRD” JUMPER on the DIGITAL INTERFACE PCB (see figure).

CREEN does not normally provide any indication.

3) Use a suitable screwdriver to tighten the 4 screws that fix the DH control panel to the welding machine.

4) Start the welding machine by turning the switch on the rear panel to position I.

When it switches on, but with the machine in stand-by, the DH control panel shows that the VRD device is active (indication on the VISION S During the welding phase the VRD device is activated (indication on the VISION S

Check that the ANALOGIC RC - OBLIGATORY function is included within the ADVANCED SETUP Menu / EQUIPMENT LAYOUT.

After this initial check you need to know that this error can only occur in the following cases:

• ANALOGIC RC remote control not connected to the relevant connector.

• The welding plant does not recognise the ANALOGIC RC remote control, even though it is connected correctly.

• The ANALOGIC RC remote control disconnected when the welding plant is working normally.

As soon as the remote control is connected again this error condition resets itself automatically! If the alarm occurs even when the ANALOGIC RC - OPTIONAL function is included in the

ADVANCED SETUP Menu / EQUIPMENT LAYOUT, call Technical Assistance Department immediately.

POWER LIMITATION This alarm appears if the power limit is exceeded. The alarm alternates with the standard display every 1.5 seconds, despite which the machine continues to weld, supplying limited power, but complying with the values shown on the data plate.

The table provides a simple summary of all the error conditions that may arise on the welding plant and, if possible, what the operator must do to attempt to resolve the problem. The table includes 2 types of errors:

•

Automatic reset error: Once the alarm condition has been resolved the welding machine starts working again and the operator can weld again! The VISION SCREEN goes back to exactly the same point it was at prior to signalling the alarm!

PLEASE NOTE: After resetting has been completed, during normal operation of the machine, the VISION S

CREEN will still show

the error signal to inform the operator of the event ( ), but this can be removed visually from the display by simply pushing the MENU KEY. WARNING: This only removes the visual error indication but not the history of what happened!

•

NON automatic reset error: To remove the alarm status and reinstate correct operation of the machine, the welding plant must be switched off. The machine will then be working again and the operator can weld again!

PLEASE NOTE: If, when switching on, the error status presents itself again, immediately contact Technical Assistance Department.

This is necessary so that our technical assistance dept (that must be contacted each time the error messages appear on the welding machine’s operator interface) is able to resolve the problems more easily and as quickly as possible, thanks to

the reports by the user, and also because, in the meantime the welding machine does not allow the operator to do their work.

If enabled, when working in ADVANCED mode, this function provides the operator with further welding modes related to the CRATER as well as the 2 special functions explained below that make it possible to vary the length of the arc in the welding crater, when using MIG (pulsed, double pulsed, synergic, and manual) welding processes.

• INITIAL ARC LENGTH (F09)

• FINAL ARC LENGTH (F14)

If enabled, when working in ADVANCED mode, this function provides the operator with the following special functions, when using the double pulsed MIG welding process:

• DOUBLE PULSED ARC LENGTH (F24) Allows the welder to adjust the length of the arc on both double pulsed levels.

• FIRST SLOPE (from I

• SECOND SLOPE (from I

1 to I 2 ) (F22)

2 to I 1 ) (F27)

These two special functions allow the welder to adjust the ramp for passing between the two double pulsed levels.

This function allows an operator using the (pulsed, double pulsed, synergic and manual) MIG welding process to adjust the ARC LENGTH ADJUSTMENT ( WELDING VOLTAGE (

) or the WIRE SPEED ( ).

) parameter with the

If activated, this function makes an additional welding mode known as TIG LIFT TORCH TRIGGER available to an operator using the TIG LIFT welding process. In this mode the welder can control the WELDING CURRENT (

) parameter, using the

button on the TIG torch.

WARNING: To allow TIG LIFT WITH TORCH TRIGGER welding, the DIGITECH PULSE needs a specific female connector to be fitted on it (NON-STANDARD MACHINE) to which the corresponding male connector on the TIG torch is to be connected.

Therefore, for the TIG LIFT welding process, a new menu will be created (see figure) named WELDING MODE SELECTION Menu (MODE).
