these fumes and gases can be hazardous to your  
health.  
D
D
D
D
D
D
D
Keep your head out of the fumes. Do not breathe the fumes.  
If inside, ventilate the area and/or use local forced ventilation at the  
arc to remove welding fumes and gases.  
D
D
If ventilation is poor, wear an approved air-supplied respirator.  
Read and understand the Material Safety Data Sheets (MSDSs)  
and the manufacturer’s instructions for metals, consumables,  
coatings, cleaners, and degreasers.  
D
Work in a confined space only if it is well ventilated, or while  
wearing an air-supplied respirator. Always have a trained watch-  
person nearby. Welding fumes and gases can displace air and  
lower the oxygen level causing injury or death. Be sure the breath-  
ing air is safe.  
FLYING METAL or DIRT can injure eyes.  
D
Welding, chipping, wire brushing, and grinding  
cause sparks and flying metal. As welds cool,  
they can throw off slag.  
D
D
Do not weld in locations near degreasing, cleaning, or spraying op-  
erations. The heat and rays of the arc can react with vapors to form  
highly toxic and irritating gases.  
D
Wear approved safety glasses with side  
shields even under your welding helmet.  
Do not weld on coated metals, such as galvanized, lead, or  
cadmiumplated steel, unless the coating is removed from the weld  
area, the area is well ventilated, and while wearing an air-supplied  
respirator. The coatings and any metals containing these elements  
can give off toxic fumes if welded.  
BUILDUP OF GAS can injure or kill.  
D
D
Shut off shielding gas supply when not in use.  
Always ventilate confined spaces or use  
approved air-supplied respirator.  
ARC RAYS can burn eyes and skin.  
MAGNETIC FIELDS can affect Implanted  
Medical Devices.  
Arc rays from the welding process produce intense  
visible and invisible (ultraviolet and infrared) rays  
that can burn eyes and skin. Sparks fly off from the  
weld.  
D
Wearers of Pacemakers and other Implanted  
Medical Devices should keep away.  
D
Wear an approved welding helmet fitted with a proper shade of fil-  
ter lenses to protect your face and eyes when welding or watching  
(see ANSI Z49.1 and Z87.1 listed in Safety Standards).

Noise from some processes or equipment can  
damagehearing.  
Wear protective clothing made from durable, flame-resistant mate-  
rial (leather, heavy cotton, or wool) and foot protection.  
D
Wear approved ear protection if noise level is  
high.  
WELDING can cause fire or explosion.  
Welding on closed containers, such as tanks,  
drums, or pipes, can cause them to blow up. Sparks  
can fly off from the welding arc. The flying sparks, hot  
workpiece, and hot equipment can cause fires and  
CYLINDERS can explode if damaged.  
Shielding gas cylinders contain gas under high  
pressure. If damaged, a cylinder can explode. Since  
gas cylinders are normally part of the welding  
process, be sure to treat them carefully.  
burns. Accidental contact of electrode to metal objects can cause  
sparks, explosion, overheating, or fire. Check and be sure the area is  
safe before doing any welding.  
D
D
Protect compressed gas cylinders from excessive heat, mechani-  
cal shocks, physical damage, slag, open flames, sparks, and arcs.

support or cylinder rack to prevent falling or tipping.  
Keep cylinders away from any welding or other electrical circuits.  
Never drape a welding torch over a gas cylinder.  
Never allow a welding electrode to touch any cylinder.  
Never weld on a pressurized cylinder explosion will result.  
Use only correct shielding gas cylinders, regulators, hoses, and fit-  
tings designed for the specific application; maintain them and  
associated parts in good condition.  
Turn face away from valve outlet when opening cylinder valve.  
Keep protective cap in place over valve except when cylinder is in  
use or connected for use.

1-6. EMF Information  
Considerations About Welding And The Effects Of Low Frequency  
Electric And Magnetic Fields  
1. Keep cables close together by twisting or taping them, or using a  
cable cover.  
2. Arrange cables to one side and away from the operator.  
3. Do not coil or drape cables around your body.  
Welding current, as it flows through welding cables, will cause electro-  
magnetic fields. There has been and still is some concern about such  
fields. However, after examining more than 500 studies spanning 17  
years of research, a special blue ribbon committee of the National  
Research Council concluded that: “The body of evidence, in the  
committees judgment, has not demonstrated that exposure to power-  
frequency electric and magnetic fields is a human-health hazard.”  
However, studies are still going forth and evidence continues to be  
examined.Until the final conclusions of the research are reached, you  
may wish to minimize your exposure to electromagnetic fields when  
welding or cutting.  
4. Keep welding power source and cables as far away from opera-  
tor as practical.  
5. Connect work clamp to workpiece as close to the weld as possi-  
ble.  
About Implanted Medical Devices:  
ImplantedMedical Device wearers should consult their doctor and the  
device manufacturer before performing or going near arc welding, spot  
welding, gouging, plasma arc cutting, or induction heating operations.  
If cleared by your doctor, then following the above procedures is recom-  
mended.  
To reduce magnetic fields in the workplace, use the following  
procedures:

Ne pas souder dans un endroit là où des étincelles peuvent tomber  
sur des substances inflammables.  
Se protéger et d’autres personnes de la projection d’étincelles et  
de métal chaud.  
LES FUMÉES ET LES GAZ peuvent être  
dangereux.  
Des étincelles et des matériaux chauds du soudage peuvent  
facilement passer dans d’autres zones en traversant de petites  
fissures et des ouvertures.  
Le soudage génère des fumées et des gaz. Leur  
inhalationpeut être dangereux pour votre santé.  
D
D
D
Surveiller tout déclenchement d’incendie et tenir un extincteur à  
proximité.  
D
D
Eloigner votre tête des fumées. Ne pas respirer les fumées.  
À l’intérieur, ventiler la zone et/ou utiliser une ventilation forcée au  
niveau de l’arc pour l’évacuation des fumées et des gaz de soudage.  
Le soudage effectué sur un plafond, plancher, paroi ou séparation  
peut déclencher un incendie de l’autre côté.  
Ne pas effectuer le soudage sur des conteneurs fermés tels que  
des réservoirs, tambours, ou conduites, à moins qu’ils n’aient été  
préparés correctement conformément à AWS F4.1 (voir les nor-  
mes de sécurité).  
D
D
Si la ventilation est médiocre, porter un respirateur anti-vapeurs  
approuvé.  
Lire et comprendre les spécifications de sécurité des matériaux  
(MSDS) et les instructions du fabricant concernant les métaux, les  
consommables, les revêtements, les nettoyants et les dégrais-  
seurs.  
D
D
Ne soudez pas si l’air ambiant est chargé de particules, gaz, ou va-  
peurs inflammables (vapeur d’essence, par exemple).  
Brancher le câble de masse sur la pièce le plus près possible de la  
zone de soudage pour éviter le transport du courant sur une  
longue distance par des chemins inconnus éventuels en provo-  
quant des risques d’électrocution, d’étincelles et d’incendie.  
D
Travailler dans un espace fermé seulement s’il est bien ventilé ou  
en portant un respirateur à alimentation d’air. Demander toujours à  
un surveillant dûment formé de se tenir à proximité. Des fumées et  
des gaz de soudage peuvent déplacer l’air et abaisser le niveau  
d’oxygène provoquant des blessures ou des accidents mortels.  
S’assurer que l’air de respiration ne présente aucun danger.  
D
D
D
Ne pas utiliser le poste de soudage pour dégeler des conduites ge-  
lées.  
D
D
Ne pas souder dans des endroits situés à proximité d’opérations  
de dégraissage, de nettoyage ou de pulvérisation. La chaleur et  
les rayons de l’arc peuvent réagir en présence de vapeurs et for-  
mer des gaz hautement toxiques et irritants.  
En cas de non utilisation, enlever la baguette d’électrode du porte-  
électrode ou couper le fil à la pointe de contact.  
Porter des vêtements de protection dépourvus d’huile tels que des  
gants en cuir, une chemise en matériau lourd, des pantalons sans  
revers, des chaussures hautes et un couvre chef.  
Ne pas souder des métaux munis d’un revêtement, tels que l’acier  
galvanisé, plaqué en plomb ou au cadmium à moins que le revête-  
ment n’ait été enlevé dans la zone de soudure, que l’endroit soit  
bien ventilé, et en portant un respirateur à alimentation d’air. Les  
revêtementset tous les métaux renfermant ces éléments peuvent  
dégager des fumées toxiques en cas de soudage.

Considérationssur le soudage et les effets de basse fréquence et des  
champs magnétiques et électriques.  
1. Garder les câbles ensemble, les torsader, les scotcher, ou les  
recouvrir d’une housse.  
2. Disposer les câbles d’un côté et à distance de l’opérateur.  
3. Ne pas courber pas et ne pas entourer pas les câbles autour de  
votre corps.  
Le courant de soudage, pendant son passage dans les câbles de sou-  
dage, causera des champs électromagnétiques. Il y a eu et il y a encore  
un certain souci à propos de tels champs. Cependant, après avoir exa-  
miné plus de 500 études qui ont été faites pendant une période de  
recherche de 17 ans, un comité spécial ruban bleu du National  
Research Council a conclu : « L’accumulation de preuves, suivant le  
jugement du comité, n’a pas démontré que l’exposition aux champs  
magnétiqueset champs électriques à haute fréquence représente un  
risque à la santé humaine ». Toutefois, des études sont toujours en  
cours et les preuves continuent à être examinées. En attendant que les  
conclusions finales de la recherche soient établies, il vous serait  
souhaitablede réduire votre exposition aux champs électromagnéti-  
ques pendant le soudage ou le coupage.  
4. Garder le poste de soudage et les câbles le plus loin possible de  
vous.  
5. Connecter la pince sur la pièce aussi près que possible de la  
soudure.  
En ce qui concerne les implants médicaux :  
Les porteurs d’implants doivent d’abord consulter leur médecin avant  
de s’approcher des opérations de soudage à l’arc, de soudage par  
points, de gougeage, du coupage plasma ou de chauffage par induc-  
tion. Si le médecin approuve, il est recommandé de suivre les  
procédures précédentes.

Reset To Factory Settings  
The upper display indicates “RUNI”. The  
lower display indicates “AUTO”, meaning  
the factory set automatic run-in speed is  
selected.  
Pressing the lower display button allows  
manual setting of the run-in wire speed.  
Speed may be adjusted from 10% to  
100% of weld wire speed.  
Pressing the lower display button again  
allows disabling of the run-in feature.  
When the lower display indicates “OFF”,  
run-in is disabled.  
There is an additional function built in  
called ”maximum trigger hold time” which  
is the maximum length of time the trigger  
can be held and the trigger hold function  
still work when the trigger is released (the  
trigger hold function must be on). The  
maximum trigger hold time is set at 4.0  
seconds after the trigger hold delay time.  
For example, if a trigger hold delay time of  
2.0 seconds is defined, and the operator  
held the trigger in for more than 6.0 sec-  
onds, the trigger hold function would not  
be in effect and the wire feeder would stop  
when the trigger is released.  
A reset menu is displayed if the following  
four push buttons are pressed simulta-  
neously: Program, Sequence, upper dis-  
play, and Setup. The upper display indi-  
cates “WIPE” . The lower display indicates  
“OFF”. The lower push button is active indi-  
cating that the Adjust control can be used to  
change the unit to “WIPE ON”. When “WIPE  
ON” is set, if the original four push buttons  
are simultaneously pressed a second time,  
the unit will reset all settings to factory de-  
fault except the arc time and arc cycle  
counts. If a reset is not desired, set the dis-  
play to “WIPE OFF” and simultaneously  
press the Program, Sequence, upper dis-  
play, and Setup push buttons to exit the re-  
set menu.  
Burnback  
Burnback time and voltage can be specified  
when the lower display indicates “BURN”  
and the upper display indicates the burn-  
back time or voltage. The Adjust control is  
used to set the desired burnback time or  
voltage. Burnback settings are program  
specific. The active program is displayed in  
the Program display and can be adjusted  
(see Section 6-6).  
Trigger Program Select  
The upper display shows “TSEL”. Lower  
display shows “On” or “Off”. The Adjust con-  
trol is used to select either “On” or “Off”.  
Auxiliary Menu  
Trigger Program Select allows the operator  
to select programs by clicking the trigger  
(pulling and releasing the trigger in a maxi-  
mum of 0.2 seconds). The feeder will switch  
between any programs that have a mini-  
mum of 0.2 seconds of preflow time set in  
the weld sequence.  
An auxiliary menu is provided if both the  
Sequence and Setup push buttons are  
pressed simultaneously. The Setup push  
button and sequence push button LEDS  
flash when the auxiliary menu is dis-  
played.  
Trigger Hold Setup  
Trigger hold delay time is indicated by  
”HOLD” in the lower display and the hold  
delay time in the upper display. The adjust  
control can be used to specify a new delay  
time for trigger hold. Trigger hold delay time  
is the minimum amount of time the trigger  
must be held for trigger hold to work when  
the trigger is released (the trigger hold func-  
tion must be on). For example, if a trigger  
hold delay time of 2.0 seconds is defined,  
the operator must hold the trigger for at least  
2 seconds before releasing it in order for the  
trigger hold function to work. Once the trig-  
ger hold function is in effect, the wire feeder  
will stay On until the trigger is pressed and  
released again.  
Pushing the Setup push button will step  
through the menu. Pushing the sequence  
push button will step through the menu in re-  
verse.  
Any combination of programs may be  
used.  
If only programs 1 and 3 have a minimum  
of 0.2 seconds of preflow time, clicking  
the trigger will toggle between programs  
1 and 3.  
. The auxiliary menu may be exited at  
any time by pressing both the Se-  
quence and Setup push buttons simul-  
taneously.  
If only programs 1, 2, and 4 have a mini-  
mum of 0.2 seconds of preflow time, click-  
ing the trigger will switch from 1 to 2 to 4  
to 1 to 2.  
Run-In  
The run-in modes are program specific  
(i.e. each program may be set to its own  
run-in mode).  
Trigger Program Select cannot be used  
while welding or with Dual Schedule.

Range Locks  
Once any program has a lock enabled, the

password between 0 and 999 by turning the  
Adjust control.  
Range locks are indicated by “LOCK” in the  
upper display for wire speed or “LOCK” in  
the lower display for voltage range.  
If a code is set, when the user re-enters the  
auxiliary menu, the password code must be  
selected to gain access to the auxiliary  
menu. Press Setup and Sequence buttons  
simultaneouslyto enter the auxillary menu.  
A failed attempt returns the user to the weld  
screen and a counter is incremented. A  
counter in the program display shows the  
numberof incorrect attempts. The user has  
five attempts to enter the correct password  
code before being locked out of the auxilia-  
ry menu, indicated by “LOCK” in the lower  
display.  
In a MIG program, the voltage range lock  
ranges from +/0 to 10 volts.  
Only one of the values needs to be set to  
enablethe program. For example, setting a  
Trim of 100 and leaving the Wire Speed at  
OFF will allow the welder to adjust the Wire  
Speed to full range  
In a pulse program, the trim range lock  
ranges from +/0 to 100.  
The wire speed range lock ranges from +/−  
0 to 195 IPM.  
Wire Feed Speed Units  
Locks are program dependent and wire  
speed locks are independent from voltage/  
trim command locks (i.e. you can have a  
wire speed lock with or without locking the  
voltage/trim command and vice versa).  
Wire feed speed setting indicated by “WFS”  
in the upper display is set to “IPM” inches−  
perminuteor ”MPM” metersperminute.  
This setting is independent of the program  
selected.  
The power may be cycled to continue weld-  
ing, but the user will remained locked out of  
the auxiliary menu.  
Press the Upper Display Pushbutton to se-  
lect Voltage/Trim Command Range Locks.  
The counter can be reset in the weld screen  
by pressing the Program, Sequence, upper  
display, and Set-up push buttons simulta-  
neously. Resetting the counter is indicated  
by “CODE” in the upper display and “RSET”  
in the lower display. Pressing the Program,  
Sequence, upper display, and Set-up push  
buttons simultaneously again resets the  
counter to 0.  
Software Revision Level  
The unit displays the software version  
being used by the interface PCB (PC20).  
Press the Lower Display Pushbutton to se-  
lect Wire Speed Range Locks.  
When the Setup button is pressed again,  
the menu repeats.  
To set a Voltage/Trim Command Range  
Lock, you must choose the type of com-  
mand being locked, voltage or trim based  
on the type of weld process selected at the  
power source. This is done by repeatedly  
pressing the Upper Display Pushbutton to  
cycle between OFF, T (trim) or V (voltage),  
as indicated on the Upper Display.

Upon leaving the auxiliary menu, the user is  
asked if a password code, indicated by  
“CODE” in the top display should be acti-  
vated.  
To reset the password, follow the directions  
under Reset To Factory Settings at the be-  
ginning of this section. Note: this will reset  
all settings and programs to the factory de-  
faults.

Remote Switch  
Remote-14 Receptacle  
If the remote switch is set to MIG,  
the feeder operates normally. A re-  
mote control may be left attached  
while the remote switch is in the  
MIG mode, as the remote has no af-  
fect on the operation of the wire  
feeder.  
If the remote switch is set to Stick/  
TIG, the feeder controls and meter  
displays are disabled, allowing con-  
trol from a standard remote control.  
When a remote control is con-  
nected to the remote-14 receptacle,  
the PipePro 450 RFC will automati-  
cally adjust output control in a pri-  
mary/secondary configuration, but  
the power source must be set for  
remote operation (see the PipePro  
450 RFC Owner’s Manual for infor-  
mation).  
In this configuration, the Amp Ad-  
just control on the PipePro 450 RFC  
power source becomes the prima-  
ry, and sets the maximum amper-  
age output of the unit. The remote  
control becomes the secondary,  
and provides an amperage range  
adjustmentof 0 to 100% of what is  
set on the Amp Adjust control on the  
power source.

LED3-Related Error Indications  
1 blink = Communication Error  
2 blinks = Trigger Error  
3 blinks = Tach Error  
The tach error occurs 2 seconds after the  
loss of tachometer feedback. The user may  
continue to weld with this error. The motor  
speed is regulated through the monitoring of  
voltage and current.  
Error conditions are indicated by LED3 on  
PC1, PC101, and LED4 on PC70. To view  
LED3, 4 turn Off unit, remove wrapper, and  
turn unit On.  
The LED blinks in a 2.5 second cycle. The  
number of blinks in this period indicates the  
type of error.  
The priority of the errors is related to the num-  
ber of blinks indicating the error. The more  
blinks, the more severe the error (motor error  
is top priority). A higher priority error overrides  
a lower one (if a motor error and a communica-  
tion error existed, the light would blink four  
times for the motor error).  
Since blink On time and blink Off time are  
equal in a four-blink cycle, the fourblink se-  
quence appears as a constant blink.  
4 blinks = Motor Error  
The communication error occurs 2.5 sec-  
onds after a loss of communication between  
the motor and the Front Panel board or Dual  
board. The user may continue to weld with  
this error.  
The motor error indicates that the motor  
has been drawing too much current for too  
long.  
The trigger error occurs if the user has the  
trigger held for more than two minutes with-  
out striking an arc (providing current over-  
ride is not enabled), or if the user holds the  
trigger past the postflow phase in a timed  
weld. This error also occurs if the trigger is  
held when the feeder is powered up. The er-  
ror may be cleared by releasing the trigger.
