B-7 OPERA TION B-7 MAKING A WELD WITH W A VEFORM TECHNOLOGY POWER SOURCES MAKING A WELD The serviceability of a product or structure utilizing the welding programs is and must be the sole responsibility of the builder/user. Many variables beyond the control of The Lincoln Electric Company affect the results obtained in applying these programs.

B-9 OPERA TION B-9 SMA W (STICK) WELDING SMAW is most often used for outdoor construction, pipe welding and general repairs. The wire feeder controls Amperage, Output Control and Arc Force dur- ing SMAW welding. During SMAW welding the wire drive remains idle.
B-10 OPERA TION B-10 NON-SYNERGIC GMA W AND FCA W WELDING In non-synergic modes, the WFS control is similar to a conventional CV power source where WFS and volt- age are independent adjustments. Therefore to main- tain the arc characteristics, the operator must adjust the voltage to compensate for any changes made to the WFS.
B-11 OPERA TION B-11 GMA W (MIG) SYNERGIC WELDING For each wire feed speed, a corresponding voltage is preprogrammed into the machine. The nominal pre- programmed voltage is the best average voltage for a given wire feed speed, but may be adjusted to prefer- ence.

B-17 OPERA TION B-17 DUAL PROCEDURE/MEMOR Y P ANEL OPERA TION The Dual Procedure/Memory Panel performs three functions: • Weld procedure selection • Memory save and recall • Limits setting There are two procedure memories ( A and B ) and eight user memories (1-8).
B-18 OPERA TION B-18 To set limits, press the desired memory button 1-8 and hold for 5 seconds. Release the memory button when the LED begins to blink rapidly and the MSP4 displays "Memory X Set Limits" as shown below. POWER WAVE® C300 LIMITS Limits allow the welder to adjust the welding proce- dure only within a defined range.
B-19 OPERA TION B-19 POWER WAVE® C300 If the passcode does not equal zero (0000), enter the passcode now. If the passcode has been forgotten, a p.c. computer application or Palm O.
B-20 OPERA TION B-20 POWER WAVE® C300 2-STEP 4-STEP- TRIG GER OPERA TION The 2-Step - 4-Step switch changes the function of the gun trigger. 2-Step trigger operation switches the welding output ON-OFF in direct response to the trig- ger.
B-21 OPERA TION B-21 POWER WAVE® C300 EXAMPLE 1 - 2 STEP TRIGGER: Simple operation The simplest trigger operation occurs with a 2 Step trigger and the Start, Crater and Burnba ck functions all set to OFF. (See Figure B.11) For this sequence, PREFLOW: Shielding gas begins to flow immediately when the gun trigger is pulled.
B-22 OPERA TION B-22 POWER WAVE® C300 EXAMPLE 2 - 2 STEP TRIGGER: Improved Arc Start and Arc End. Tailoring the arc start and arc end is a common method for reducing spatter and improving weld quality. This can be accomplished with the Start and Burnback functions set to a desired values and Crater set to OFF.
B-23 OPERA TION B-23 POWER WAVE® C300 WELD: After upslope, the power source output and the wire feed speed continue at the weld settings. CRATER & DOWNSLOPE: As soon as the trigger is released, the wire feed speed and power source output ramp to the crater settings throughout the crater time.

B-25 OPERA TION B-25 POWER WAVE® C300 EXAMPLE 5 - 4 STEP TRIGGER: Manual control of Start and Crater times with Burnback ON. The 4 step trigger sequence gives the most flexibility when the Start, Crater and Burnback functions are active.
B-26 OPERA TION B-26 POWER WAVE® C300 COLD FEED/GAS PURGE SWITCH Cold Feed and Gas Purge are com- bined into a single spring centered tog- gle switch. To activate Cold Feeding, hold the switch in the FORWARD position. The wire drive will feed electrode but neither the power source nor the gas solenoid will be energized.
