Parameters for
manual metal arc
(MMA) welding in
the Setup menu
level 2
EnE Real Energy Input – electrical energy of the arc relative to the welding speed
Unit: kJ
Setting range: ON / OFF
Factory setting: OFF
Since the full range of values (1 kJ - 99999 kJ) cannot be displayed on the three-
digit display, the following display format has been selected:
Value in kJ / indicator on display:
1 to 999 / 1 to 999
1000 to 9999 / 1.00 to 9.99 (without "ones" digit, e.g. 5270 kJ -> 5.27)
10000 to 99999 / 10.0 to 99.9
(without "ones" and "tens" digits, e.g. 23580 kJ -> 23.6)
ALC Arc Length Correction - correction of the arc length via the welding voltage
Setting range: ON / OFF
Factory setting: OFF
The arc length depends on the welding voltage. The welding voltage can be ad-
justed to suit individual needs in Synergic operation.
If the ALC parameter is set to "OFF", the welding voltage cannot be adjusted.
The welding voltage is automatically determined by the selected welding current
or wire speed. If the arc length correction is adjusted, the voltage changes, but
the welding current and wire speed remain the same. When setting the arc length
correction using the adjusting dial, the left display is used for the correction value
of the arc length. The welding voltage value on the right display changes simul-
taneously. Afterwards the left display shows the original value, e.g. welding cur-
rent.
r r (resistance) - welding circuit resistance (in mOhm)
see "Measuring welding circuit resistance r"
L L (inductivity) - welding circuit inductivity (in microhenry)
