WIZARD
The WIZARD mode is only accessible in the «Advanced» display mode and is dedicated to the TIG welding process. It allows the realization of complex
welding cycles (non-standard) by a succession of Steps. Each Step is determined by a ramp and a current level and a type of current (DC/AC/Pulsed) during it.
The configuration of the WIZARD is done in three steps: the definition of the welding cycle (number of Steps, loops...), the setting of each Step (ramp,
current type...) and finally the settings of the specific advanced parameters.
STEP : A Step, represented with a pictogram
shape (Standard or Pulsed), a ramp to the set welding current. Each step is customisable.
Welding cycle : a welding cycle consists of a Pre-gas, one or more Steps (see «Welding cycle definition») and a Post-gas.
Loops: There are two different loops (see «Definition of the welding cycle»):
• The internal loop of the cycle (B1): within the cycle, the user can choose to make one or more or even infinite loops (repetition of two or more
cycles) according to his application (example of welding in AC MIX, which repeats two DC and AC Steps).
• The cycle loop (B2): the user can choose to repeat his cycle (excluding pre-gas and post-gas) one, several or even infinitely many times and ad-
just a delay between two repetitions if necessary (example of welding in MULTITACK, which repeats the TACK welding cycle with a delay between
two points as long as the trigger is held down)
