Gas pressure indicators
In manual mode, the gas pressure is displayed in bar and psi. The gas pressure bar is also a visual indicator of the gas
pressure.
Gas pressure bar
When the arrow is centered in the vertical bar (the reference pressure of the automatic pressure setting), the
gas pressure is set to the preset (factory-defined) value. If the pressure is higher than the preset value, the
arrow appears above the mid-point of the bar. If the pressure is lower than the preset value, the arrow appears
below the mid-point of the bar.
Note: In automatic mode, the power supply adjusts the pressure to the preset value. You can use manual
mode to adjust the pressure to satisfy the needs of a particular cutting job. Refer to page 3-10
