| Software notes | The user interface is centered around a bright and intuitive 5-inch TFT screen, allowing easy access to all welding parameters. The system features built-in synergic weld programs, enabling quick and precise arc adjustments via a single control knob. Ten memory slots are available to save and recall frequently used jobs, significantly streamlining setup times. The machine also offers arc dynamics control to fine-tune the response between a soft or crisp arc depending on the material, and it can automatically detect a connected spool gun to further simplify the transition to aluminum welding operations. The interface supports multiple languages and includes automated functions like run-in and burn-back adjustments, providing users with industrial-level control in a compact package. | — |
