COOLING SYSTEM ( TIG 208 ONLY)
NEVER USE YOUR MACHINE WITHOUT COOLING LIQUID.
FAILURE to adhere to this may result in damage to the pump in the cooling system.
The system is designed for cooling the TIG torch « liquid cooled ». It operates:
• Simultaneously with the fan.
• Only in TIG mode (the pump will start even with an « air cooled » torch).
Fill the tank with an engine coolant (or similar) up to the mark, taking care not to over-fill (1.25 L capacity).
REMOTE CONTROL
The remote control operates in TIG and MMA mode.
Connector technology
The Tig 207FV and 208 are equipped with a female socket for a remote control. The specific 7 point male
plug (GYS product ref.045699) enables connection to a manual remote control (RC) or foot pedal (PEd).
For the cabling lay out, see the diagram below.
Connecting remote/pedal
1- Power up the machine
2- Plug the pedal/remote control to the connecting socket on the machine.
3- The screen will flash and display « No » (Nothing),
4- Select the type of control by turning the intensity adjustment knob:
« No » (Nothing) / « RC » (Remote Control) / « PEd » (Pedal)
5- Turn the knob until the desired selecton is reached, and after 2 seconds the display will freeze on the
chosen selection.
NB: In case of error, unplug the remote control, ( « No » will be displayed) and re-start the connection
process.
Remark: You will be asked to specify the remote connected each time the machine is powered up.
Functions
Manual remote control (
GYS product ref.045675)
:
The remote control enables the variation of current from minimum intensity (DC : 5A / AC : 10 / MMA : 10A)
to an intensity defined by the user.
In this configuration, all modes and functions of the machine are accessible and can be set.
Pedal (
GYS product ref.045682)
:
In all modes excluding « Spot » mode, the pedal control enables variation of the current from the minimum
intensity (DC : 5A / AC : 10) to an intensity definied by the user.
In TIG mode, the machine will only operate in two-stage welding (2T mode). The upslope and downslope
are not automatic, and are controlled by the User with the foot pedal.
In « Spot » mode, the pedal control replaces the torch trigger (the pedal position has no effect on the
current).
DUTY CYCLE
The welding unit describes an output characteristic of a "constant current". The duty cycles following the
norm EN60974-1 (at 40°C on a 10mn cycle) are indicated in the table below :
D : Switch contact
C : Earth
B : Cursor
A : + 5V
Nb : The Potentiometer value must be 10 KΩ
