ArcOne Auto-Darkening Filters (Vision Python & Carrera) Europe - Manual (Page 4)

Delay Adjustment and Grind Mode (not on all models)
Digital Controlled Filters: briefly press the Mode button (Fig. 1), the LCD mode will flash to
indicate the current setting (Fig. 3 or 4). Press and hold the + or - button to change the setting.
NOTE: Some models have a dedicated Delay button with the + or - to change the setting.
6000VI4: Press the Delay button on the back of the control center to turn delay on or off.
Intelligent Darkening Filter (IDF) Modes
To switch from one mode to another Press AND Hold down the Mode button for two seconds. To
cycle through modes continue depressing the Mode button. (***NOTE: Modes will not switch
when in Grind Mode.)
Low Shade Mode: Dark Shades 5-8 available in this mode. Arc detection to 10 Amps.
Auto-Variable Mode: LCD displays “AUTO” (Fig. 4). Filter automatically responds to the
intensity of the welding arc and sets the filter to the appropriate dark shade. The Auto-Variable
mode is dependent upon light intensity of the arc and distance from the filter to the arc. The user
can further adjust the dark shade up or down one shade number for comfort while the “(
٠
)” icon
is flashing. This mode has one memory position for each shade in the dark state; i.e. 9, 10, 11,
12, and 13. (NOTE: Shade 13 cannot be set higher than 13. This mode only works on split
range; i.e. 5-9/9-13 filters in the higher shade range.) To reset all memory slots press and hold
both mode and delay buttons for two (2) seconds.
iTIG Mode: Upon entering iTIG mode, where LCD displays “TIG” icon and flashing “(
٠
)” (Fig. 4)
user first sets lower desired shade while the “(
٠
)” flashes. After approximately five (5) seconds of
not turning the shade knob the flashing stops and the user can then set the desired upper
shade. The lowest possible shade is fixed according to the standard to which the filter has been
tested (example: iDF48, iTIG in 9-13 range shade 9 lowest and shade 13 highest, in 5-9 range
shade 7 lowest and shade 9 highest.)
Welding Helmets:
Welding helmets are designed to provide protection against UV/IR radiation around the user's
face. ArcOne ® welding helmets meet/exceed face coverage defined by CE standards. ArcOne ®
welding helmets are suitable for arc welding. Refer to any or all of the following standards for
more specifications: ANSI Z87, CAN/CSA Z94.3, and CE EN 166 & 175.
Limitations of Use
Filters:
ArcOne
® welding filters are not designed for oxy-acetylene, laser, or very low amperage welding
applications. Arc detection may be impaired due to amperage, distance from the arc, welding
current frequency, electrode type, shielding gasses, and lighting conditions.
DO NOT weld with filter in the light state. If the filter fails to turn dark immediately stop use and
contact a service provider for help.
Welding Helmets:
CAUTION, not meant to protect against Severe Impact, explosives, fragments from grinding
wheels, abrasive discs, and hazardous fluids. Use secondary impact protection, such as safety
glasses.
DO NOT use this helmet without proper training from a certified welder or welding instructor.
DO NOT use this helmet in an excessive heat environment where the operation of the filter
becomes non-functional due to exceeding the temperature ratings of the electronic components.
