HARDWARE SPECIFICS:
VR GMAW/FCAW GUN
The VR GMAW/FCAW gun should be placed on the
round gun holder on the right side when not in use.
The VR gun has a trigger that is used during the simu-
lation of GMAW and FCAW processes to initiate and
maintain the simulated welding arc.
In order to strike an arc with the VR SMAW device,
strike or tap the tip of the rod (of the VR SMAW device)
on the coupon being welded. To break the arc, move
the VR SMAW device rod away from the work piece.
Do not try to strike the arc with excessive force, as
the arc start is distance based. Excessive force
may result in damage to the VR SMA
W device.
The angle of the rod can be changed by squeezing the
clamp of the VR SMA
W device. This allows the rod to
be moved into the 45 or 90 degree position. Once the
rod is at one of these angles, release the clamp. The
rod should now be fixed in that position. Do not
change the rod angle while the rod is extending or
retracting.

VR SMAW DEVICE
The VR SMAW device has a rod representing an elec-
trode. This rod retracts when a virtual arc is struck to
simulate the electrode burning off during the virtual
welding process. When the virtual electrode is fully
used up, the rod will stop retracting. When the user
presses “new stick” in the orange actions menu button,
the rod extends out, simulating that a new electrode
was put into the VR SMAW device. When not in use,
the VR SMAW device should be placed in the VR
SMAW holder on the left side of the VR weld machine.
