energizes
the
gas
solenoid
and
purges
the

gas
line
of
the
gun.
The
PURGE
push
button
allows
the
flow
meter
to
be
adjusted
without
energizing
the
welding
circuit.

The
voltmeter
displays
weld
voltage
to
the

tenth
of
a
volt
while
welding
and
preset
voltage
while
idling.

When
used
with
the
Pulstar
welding
power
source,
the
meter
displays
weld
peak
amperage.
When
used
with
the
Arc
Pak
welding
power
source,
the
meter
displays
inductance
in
percentage.
When
used
with
the
Deltaweld

INDICATOR
LIGHTS
(Figure
4-1)
There
are
five
indicator
lights
on
the
interface.
These
are
visual
indications
of
various
process
functions.
The
GAS
light
turns
on
when
the
gas
valve
is
energized
to
indicate
shielding
gas
flow.
The
CONTACTOR
light
turns
on
when
the
welding
pow
er
source
contactor
is
energized
to
indicate
that
weld
output
is
available.
The
WIRE
FEED
light
turns
on
when
the
wire
drive
motor
is
energized
to
indicate
that
wire
is
feeding.
The
CURRENT
light
turns
on
when
the
current
detect
relay
is
energized
to
indicate
that
an
arc
is
established.
The
ARC
FAILURE
light
turns
on
only
when
properly
connected
according
to
instructions
in
Section
3-6,
and
there
is
an
