This article explains the front control panel of the RED by Lorch welding machine RED MIG 210 Syn. The illustrations show a numbered overview of all buttons, controls, and display indicators on the power source depending on the selected welding mode. The following description explains the functions behind the individual controls, their designations, and which settings can be made there.
Display of the RED MIG 210 Syn in the welding process MIG-MAG
| 1 | Display of main parameter welding voltage [V]* / Arc correction main parameter arc length (voltage) [V] / Error mode “P” |
| 2 | Display of main parameter wire feed speed [m/min] / Main parameter welding current [A]* / Arc correction main parameter inductance / Error code |
| 3 | Short press on button: Select wire diameter (0.6, 0.8, 0.9, 1.0), manual mode “MANU” Press button long (not when “MANU” is selected): Switch between main parameter wire feed speed [m/min] and main parameter welding current [A] |
| 4 | Button gas test “GAS CHECK” |
| 5 | Button wire feed “WIRE CHECK” |
| 6 | Rotary push button |
| 7 | Push Button adjustment inductance setting |
| 8 | Button welding process selection: MIG-MAG “MIG”, TIG “TIG”, electrode “MMA” |
| 9 | Button selection operating mode and function: 2-stroke “2T”, 4-stroke “4T” |
| 10 | Gas selection button (“CO2”, 20 % CO2 80 % argon “MIX”, no gas “FLUX”) |
* The preset values of the main parameters before welding are referred to as forecast values. During welding, the actual values of welding voltage and welding current are displayed.
Display of the RED MIG 210 Syn in the welding process TIG
| 1 | Display actual value voltage [V] / Error mode “P” |
| 2 | Display main parameter welding current [A] / Error code |
| 3 | Rotary push button |
| 4 | Button welding process selection: MIG-MAG “MIG”, TIG “TIG”, electrode “MMA” |
Display of the RED MIG 210 Syn in the welding process Electrode (MMA)
| 1 | Display actual value voltage [V] / Display Hotstart value / ArcForce value / Error mode “P” |
| 2 | Display main parameter welding current [A] / Error code |
| 3 | Rotary push button |
| 4 | Button setting secondary parameters Hotstart, ArcForce |
| 5 | Button welding process selection: MIG-MAG “MIG”, TIG “TIG”, electrode “MMA” |
Control
The display can be controlled as follows:
- Context-sensitive buttons
- Rotary push button
Using the context-sensitive buttons, the adjacent elements can be selected. The associated arrow indicates which element is selected.
The rotary push button has the following functions:
- Rotate = Set / Adjust parameter
- Press = Switch between parameters
Detailed information on commissioning and control can be found in the operating manual of the RED MIG 210 Syn welding machine
