| Software notes | The user interface is managed via an LCD panel integrated into the power source, allowing operators to easily view and set key parameters such as wire or gas type, material thickness, current, voltage, and wire speed. The system includes pre-loaded synergic curves for mild steel and flux-cored wire, automatically optimizing the welding arc. Software capabilities can be expanded by purchasing an optional package that unlocks additional specific curves for welding aluminum, stainless steel, and CuSi3 alloys. | — |
