Aligning the cable resistance
Art. Nr.: 099-MMRCLW-EW521
The resistance value of cables can either be set directly or it can be aligned using the power
source. The factory setting of the power sources is 8 m-ohm. This value correponds to a 5 m
earth cable, a 1.5 m intermediate hose package and a 3 m water-cooled welding torch. With
other hose package lengths, it is necessary to carry out a +/- voltage correction to optimise
welding properties. The voltage correction value can be set close to zero by means of realigning
the cable resistance. It is recommended to align the electric cable resistance after replacing
accessories such as torches or intermediate hose packages.
In case a second wire feeder is used the (rL2) parameter has to be adjusted. For all other
configurations it is sufficient to align the (rL1) parameter.
