Weld
When this switch is in the ON position, the multiple Weld

feature is used to change the weld parameters because of a
HAR
discontinuity in the work or for start and end weld tweaking of
the arc. This feature is described in the sections on
Semiautomatic Operation and Auxiliary Interface Operation.
When this switch is OFF, the control panel will ignore
instructions to use the next sequential Weld Sub Segment
parameters. When this switch is HAR, the mode is set by the
optional front panel switch.

release gun switch to stop an arc.
HAR
OFF: Trigger Hold OFF. Pull gun switch to start and maintain
welding arc. Release gun switch to end the welding arc.
HAR: Trigger Hold mode is set by the optional trigger hold
switch on the front panel. When HAR is selected and the
trigger hold switch is up, trigger hold is OFF. When HAR is
selected and the trigger hold switch is down, trigger hold is
ON.
DF
Display Filter This feature sets the responsiveness (jitter) of the welding
0.00 to
17+
displays. This number sets the amount of time between each
1.00
new screen update (in seconds). The arc voltage, arc current,
and actual wire feed speed displays are all affected. The data
is averaged over that time frame. A number of 1.00 seconds
is the slowest that the displays will change, giving a very stable
but deadened response. A number below .05 will give a very
lively, but sometimes unreadable response.
SP
Switch Period This number sets gun switch responsiveness. This number
0.00 to
17+
sets the amount of time that the gun trigger must stay in its
1.00
current position before it is recognized. A change faster than
this number is used when ‘flickering’ the gun trigger to advance
to the next weld sub segment. For example, if this number is
set to .30 (seconds), any changes on the gun trigger faster
than .30 seconds will advance the sub segment (if that feature
is on), and any gun trigger action slower than .30 seconds will
stop the weld.

Also, crater fill will not execute in the weld sequence.
