Warning and notification symbols:

a.

Cooling unit

Green: Cooling unit is connected and running

Red: Cooling unit is connected, but there is a problem (e.g. coolant circulation is restricted)

b.

General notification

Yellow: This is a warning that requires attention

Red: There is an error that prevents welding

Error code is shown below the symbol

c.

Operating temperature

Red: Welding equipment has overheated

d.

VRD (voltage reduction device)

VRD symbol on: VRD is on

>> This is always on in power source models where the VRD function is locked on.

VRD symbol red (blinking): There is a fault with VRD that prevents welding

VRD symbol off: VRD is off.

Tip:

You can switch between the home view and the previously used view by long pressing the menu button.

3.2.2 Weld Assist view

Weld Assist is a wizard-like utility for easy selection of welding parameters. The utility walks the user step-by-step
through the selection of required parameters, presenting the selections in an easily understandable way for a non-tech-
nical user.

The Weld Assist feature is available for both TIG and MMA welding. In Weld Assist, the selections are made with the con-
trol knob (1) and with the two function buttons (2, 3):
