Push-Pull Gun Knob Behavior
This option determines how the potentiometer on the Push/Pull torch will behave. Gun Pot Enabled = The welding wire
feed speed is always controlled by the potentiometer on the push-pull gun (default). The left front panel knob is only
used to adjust Start and Crater wire feed speed.
Gun Pot Disabled = The wire feed speed is always controlled by the left front panel knob. This setting is useful when
the operator wishes to have wire feed speed settings recalled from memories and not have the potentiometer "over-
write" the setting.
Gun Pot Proc A = When in procedure A, the welding wire feed speed is controlled by the potentiometer on the push-
pull gun. When in procedure B, the welding wire feed speed is controlled by the left front panel knob. This setting
allows a fixed wire feed speed to be selected in procedure B and not have the potentiometer "overwrite" the setting
when the procedure changes.
P.17
Remote Control Type
This setup parameter was previously named "Spool/Push-Pull".
This option selects the type of analog remote control being used. Digital remote control devices (those with a digital dis-
play) are configured automatically. Not all P.17 selections will be available on all machines. When P.17 is used to con-
figure the remote control to function in a specific process, the remote will be ignored in other processes. For example, if
P.17 = TIG Amp Control, the remote control will only function when TIG welding - the remote will be ignored in other
processes (MIG, stick and gouge). If P.17 is set to Spool Gun or Push-Pull Gun then set to All Mode Remote, the
machine will remember prior value of P.17 and will operate a Spool Gun or Push-Pull Gun, depending on the prior
value of P.17.
Spool Gun = Use this setting while MIG welding with a spool gun that uses a potentiometer used for wire feed speed
control (this setting is backward compatible with "P.17 Gun Selection" = Standard/Spool).
Push-Pull Gun = Use this setting wile MIG welding with a push-pull gun that uses a potentiometer for wire feed speed
control (this setting is backward compatible with "P.17 Gun Selection" = PushPull).
TIG Amp Control = Use this setting while TIG welding with a foot or hand current control device (Amptrol). While TIG
welding, the upper left knob on the User Interface sets the maximum current obtained when the TIG amp control is at
its maximum setting.
Stick/Gouge Rem. = Use this setting while stick welding or gouging with a remote output control device. While stick
welding, the upper left knob on the User Interface sets the maximum current obtained when the stick remote is at itʼs
maximum setting. While gouging, the upper left knob is disabled and the gouging current is set on the remote control.
All Mode Remote = This setting allows the remote control to function in all weld modes which is how most machines
with 6-pin and 7-pin remote control connections operate. This setting was provided so that customers with a mix of
Lincoln Electric equipment can have consistent remote control behavior across all of their equipment. (N. American
default)
Joystick MIG Gun = Use this setting while MIG welding with a push MIG gun with a joystick control. Stick, TIG and
gouge welding currents are set at the User Interface. (European default)
P.20
Display Trim as Volts Options
This option determines how trim is displayed.
False = The trim is displayed in the format defined in the weld set (default).
True = All trim values are displayed as a voltage.
Note: This option may not be available on all machines. The power source must support this functionality, or this option
will not appear in the menu.Note: This option may not be available on all machines. The power source must support
