Creep start
Creep starting feeds out the wire at 1.5 m/min (59 in./min) until it makes
electrical contact with the workpiece.
Crater filling
Crater filling helps to avoid end crater pipes, thermal cracking and crater
formation in the weld once welding is completed. When activating crater filling,
also select the preferred crater filling time using the setting knob located on the
internal control panel.
When crater filling is selected, the welding voltage and the wire feed speed will
be reduced during the selected time (zero to five seconds), before entering SCT
or burnback.
The functionality differs somewhat depending on whether 2-stroke or 4-stroke is
selected. When 2-stroke is selected, crater filling
always
continues for the
selected time.
When 4-stroke is selected, crater filling continues for the selected time
unless
the trigger is released
. If the trigger is released
before
the set time has
expired, crater filling will be interrupted when the trigger is released.

Overtemperature indicator
The overheating protection has two levels:
Warning
When the overtemperature indicator is illuminated, this indicates that
the wire feeder is
approaching
a critical temperature level. The weld
that is already in progress may be completed, but a new weld cannot
be started until the overtemperature warning disappears.
Error
The overtemperature indicator is illuminated and the text "Err"
appears on the display to indicate that the wire feeder
has reached
a critical temperature level. This will stop the ongoing weld. The error
is automatically cleared once the wire feeder has cooled down and is
ready for use again.
6.5
Measured values
Measured voltage
The measured value on the display for arc voltage V is the arithmetic average
value.
Measured current
The measured value on the display for welding current A is the arithmetic
average value.
