3.2 Wireless Foot Pedal & Wireless Remote Control
TIG series of welding machines can be configured to communicate exclusively with wireless foot
pedal. This is done by a simple process of synchronising the wireless remote control and the machine
frequencies. Each interface frequency assigned is unique, so it is possible to use several wireless control
systems/ machines in the same area with no problems. The direct range of the wireless control system is
approximately 100m, this will be affected by the physical location of the machine and the remote control.
INSTALLATION & OPERATION
1
To synchronise a Wireless Foot Pedal to a machine, follow these instructions:
1) Ensure the welding power supply is switched off.
2) Press and hold the parameter select/adjust knob on the front panel of the power
supply (2-4 seconds) while at the same time turning the machine ON using the
ON-OFF switch on the back of the welding power supply.
3) When the display on the front panel of the power supply is blank, release the control
knob. Turn on the remote control or foot pedal while at the same time pressing any
buttons on the remote control panel or foot pedal, the digital meter on the front panel
of the welding power supply flick twice to indicate the synchronization is successful
and complete.( Synchronization has to accomplish in 10s after the display is blank.)
4) Switch the machine off and back on again to start welding operation.
5) If the operation is unsuccessful, repeat steps 1 to 4.
6) During operation, the front panel control on the power supply is still functional but the
remote control panel or foot pedal has higher priority level.
7) When the remote control panel or foot pedal is idles for 10 seconds, it will
automatically go into “sleep” mode.
8) Only front Panel Control is active when wireless remote control or foot pedal is in
“sleep” mode. Any operation on the wireless remote control panel or foot pedal will
“wake it up and resumes control of the machine.

1) Ensure the welding power supply is switched off.
2) Press the encoder on the front control panel of the power supply, meanwhile turn on
the machine.
3) Pressing the encoder about 10 seconds, until the control panel display "rSt", then it
