2.3 MS 200 and MS 300 operations
ON/OFF button (1)
The wire feed unit remains in the OFF position when the power source is switched on, thus
preventing start-up. ’OFF’is shown on the display.
When the ON/OFF button is pressed for more than 1 second, the unit starts up. The unit is now
ready for welding and will automatically return back to it previous position, before the power
was cut o. The wire feed unit starts up also by pressing three (short) times the switch of the
welding gun.
Basic settings and displays
With MIG welding the wire feed speed is set via left potentiometer (control knob) and the
value is shown on the left display. The welding voltage is set via right potentiometer (control
knob) and the value is shown on the right display. During welding, the left display shows the
actual welding current value and the display on the right shows the welding voltage.
With electrode welding (MMA) the welding current value is set via the potentiometer and
the value is shown on the left display. The display on the right shows the idling voltage of the
power source. During welding the left display shows the actual welding current value and the
display on the right shows the welding voltage.
When MIG dynamics/electrode welding Arc force adjustment is activated with Arc Force/
Dynamics button the value is adjusted via right potentiometer (control knob) (see the
information on adjustment of MIG dynamics/arc force).
With Synergic 1-MIG welding, the power value is set via left potentiometer (control knob) and
the length of the arc via right potentiometer (control knob) (see ’1-MIG welding’).
Adjustment of MIG dynamics/Arc Force (13)
With MIG welding dynamics adjustment is inuenced on welding stability and spatter
amount. Zero setting is recommended basic setting. Values –> min (-1 ... -9), softer arc for
reduced spatter amount. Values –> max (1 ... 9), harder arc for increased stability and when
100 % CO₂ shielding gas is used when welding steel.
With electrode welding Arc Force adjustment is inuenced on welding stability. Adjustment
is needed for using dierent types of electrodes. Control range (-9 ... 0) is commonly used
for welding electrodes for stainless steel. Control range (0 ... +9) is used for harder arc
characteristic to increase stability, e.g. for welding with thicker basic electrodes and using
lower current value than recommendated. Factory set value (0) is a good general use for
adjusting the roughness of the arc.
Indication of liquid-cooled MIG gun (14)
You can activate either air or liquid cooled MIG gun with a setup parameter. For more
information, see chapter 2.6.
If the LED (14) is lit, liquid-cooling is activated in the system. In this case, ensure that you have
connected a liquid-cooled MIG gun to the equipment. The cooling units starts on the next
machine startup.

Weld data (11)
The weld data function is activated by long-pressing the additional welding functions button.
The weld data function returns the welding current and voltage values to the displays that
were in use during the last weld.
Selection of welding process (10)
The welding process – normal MIG or 1-MIG – can be chosen with the welding process
selection button. In normal MIG welding wire feed speed and welding voltage is adjusted
separately. In synergic 1-MIG and Wise welding the welding voltage and other parametres
related to welding are optimally bound to each other! In synergic welding the setting for
power and arc lenght are adjusted.
Electrode welding (MMA) is selected by pressing the button for >1 second. When electrode
welding is selected, the power source, the electrode holder connected to it and the MIG gun
become energised (open circuit voltage).
LED indicators: MMA (MMA selected), MIG (MIG selected), 1-MIG (1-MIG selected), 1-MIG +
WISE (1-MIG and either WiseFusion or WisePenetration selected , selection between the two is
done through SETUP) and WISE (WiseRoot or WiseThin selected, selection between the two is
done through welding program selection).
WiseRoot/WiseThin program is activated by choosing a WiseRoot/WiseThin welding program
(WISE led then turns on). Wise welding is the facility provided separately, so the function is
not in every equipment. WiseRoot and WiseThin require licences, which can be purchased in
Kemppi DataStore.
Selection of MIG operating procedure (5)
MIG 2T: MIG welding with two-sequence procedure of welding gun start switch
1. switch pressed: welding starts
2. switch released: welding stops
MIG 4T: MIG welding with four-sequence procedure of welding gun start switch
1. switch pressed: shielding gas ow starts
2. switch released: welding starts
3. switch pressed: welding stops
4. switch released: shielding gas ow stops
Minilog: Minilog is an additional function, which can be purchased separately. (Minilog is also
referred as 'Matchlog' in DataStore.)
Without Minilog license, press of the button chooses between 2T and 4T.

Setup (5)
When the adjustment of SETUP parameters has been conrmed with a long press of the
SETUP button (10), the adjustable parameter is selected via left potentiometer (control knob)
and the name of the parameter is shown on the left display. The parameter’s value is set via
right potentiometer (control knob) and the value is shown on the display on the right (see
’SETUP functions’).
Synergic 1-MIG or Wise welding (6, 10)
In Synergic 1-MIG welding, the optimal welding parameters for the welding wires and gas
used are recorded in the unit. The welding is controlled by adjusting the welding power and
arc length.
Wise processes are additional functions, which can be purchased separately.
Welding program selection:
Before starting to weld, a welding program suitable for the welding wire and gas used must
be chosen based on this Operating Manual.
Welding program selection is activated by pressing Set Prog button longer than one second.
In this case both displays begin to ash and the material group is selected with the control
knob on the left and the welding program for the material group in question with the control
knob on the right.
First ve material groups are for Synergic 1-MIG welding and last ve are for Wise processes.
Refer to the selection LED indicators on the panel for synergic welding program – indicators
show the material, the wire thickness and the gas type in question.
The selected programme is immediately recorded in the memory. To get back to normal status
press ON/OFF (1) key, or Set Prog button (6).
Use of a selected welding program:
The selected welding program is immediately ready for welding. Check that the welding
program corresponds to the welding wire and shield gas in use. The selection LED indicators
on the panel show the material, the wire thickness and the gas type in use. The welding
program number can be checked by briey pressing the Set Prog button (6), after which the
displays show the welding program number.
TIP! The selected welding program can be saved for later use using one of the memory channels.
Refer to 'Memory functions'.
Set the desired welding power via the left-hand potentiometer (control knob) and the arc
length via the potentiometer (control knob) on the right.
Memory functions (2)
Storage of settings
The memory functions can be used to record useful welding values in the memory. There are
ve dierent memory channels under ve separate memory buttons: 1 … 5.
In addition to welding values (wire feed speed, welding voltage), function options such as
2T/4T, Creep Start, and Crater Level are recorded in the memory as well as the used welding
program.
Short press selects the memory locations.
Long press saves the current settings to the selected memory location.

Remote Selection Button (12)
Short Press: Gun Remote/Hand Remote selection. If remote auto recognition is selected ON
only those remote controls which can be found are selected.
Long Press: CH remote function ON/OFF. Gun Remote or Hand Remote control must be
selected rst before CH remote function can be turned ON/OFF. When active, CH remote LED
is lit and memory channels are selectable from the remote control device.
The CH remote function enables selection of memory channels via the selection controller
located on the gun.
2.4 Additional welding functions
Activation with the MIG function selection button (11)
The selection button for additional MIG functions can be used to activate the Hot Start or
the Crater Fill function. Further presses of the selection button can select one or more of the
above functions. Only the available additional functions for each method can be selected.
• HotStart function is meant to reduce initial welding errors when welding highly heat-
conductive materials such as aluminium. Hot Start can be selected when using Synergic
1-MIG welding and when the 4T operating mode is selected. In this case, when the start
switch of the gun is held down, a xed pre-gas time is displayed after which welding
starts at the level determined by the SETUP mode’s Hot Start parameter, returning to the
normal level when the gun switch is released.
• Crater Fill is meant to reduce welding defects caused by end cratering. The Crater Fill
function can be selected when using Synergic 1-MIG welding and when the 4T operating
mode is selected. When the gun switch is pressed down in connection with termination
of welding, the welding power drops to the crater-lling level selected previously. The
crater lling function is discontinued by releasing the gun switch.

FastMig MS 200, MS 300

EN
NOTE! In crater ll, the initial value of the welding power must be greater than the nal
value, and therefore the adjustment ranges for the initial and nal values are restricted
automatically, if necessary.
Welding Level
Crater Fill Start Level
Crater Fill Time
Crater Fill End Level
Parameters related to these functions are set via the SETUP function (see ’SETUP functions’).
Stopping is performed as with the normal 4T function.
The values of parameters related to additional MIG functions can be changed with the SETUP
function (see ’SETUP’).
Parameters are selected for adjustment via potentiometer on the left. The value of the
parameter is set via potentiometer on the right. The value is immediately recorded in the
memory.
Activation through SETUP
Other additional MIG functions are activated through SETUP.
• Creep Start is meant to facilitate the initial weld – e.g., when welding with a high wire
feed speed. The wire feed speed is kept low until the wire touches the work piece and
the current begins to ow. Creep Start can be selected with normal MIG welding or with
Synergic 1-MIG welding.
• WiseFusion™ is a welding function for ensuring consistent weld quality in all positions.
It is an optional feature, which can be purchased through Kemppi DataStore.
• WisePenetration™ is a welding function for delivering constant welding power
regardless of changes in the stick out length. It is an optional feature, which can be
purchased through Kemppi DataStore.
• MatchLog™ contains MiniLog™ function for quickly changing welding parameters on
the run. It is an optional feature, which can be purchased through Kemppi DataStore.
• If your welding needs change and you wish to update your system in the future, you can
order additional welding programs or other welding software and load them to your
system with Kemppi DataGun eld programming device.

3. FASTMIG ERROR CODES
The existence of possible faults in the equipment is investigated in connection with each
wire feed unit start-up. If a fault is detected, the fault in question will be indicated as an ’Err’
message on the panel display.
Error code examples:
Err 2: Undervoltage
The device has stopped because it has detected a mains undervoltage that disturbs welding.
Check the quality of the supply network.
Err 3: Overvoltage
The device has stopped because dangerously high temporary voltage surges or a continuous
over-voltage has been detected in the electric network. Check the quality of the supply
network.
Err 4: Power source is overheated
The power source has overheated. The cause may be one of the following:
• The power source has been used for a long time at maximum power.
• The circulation of cooling air to the power source is blocked.
• The cooling system has experienced a failure.
Remove any obstacle to air circulation, and wait until the power source fan has cooled down
the machine.
Err 5: Water unit alarm
The water circulation is blocked. The cause may be one of the following:
• Congestion or disconnection in the cooling pipeline
• Insucient cooling liquid
• Excessive cooling liquid temperature
Check the circulation of the cooling liquid and the air circulation of the water unit.
Err 54: No data communication from power source
The data transmission between the power source and the wire feed unit has been cut o or is
defective. Check the extension lead and connections.
Err 55: Power source is busy
The communication channel is busy. The power source is being used by another wire feed unit
or the programming for some other device in the channel (e.g. control panel) is in progress.
Err 61: The water unit is not found
Water unit is not connected to the equipment or there is a connection fault.
Connect up the water unit or change the setting of the unit to air-cooled, if you are using a
air-cooled welding gun.
Err 153: Overheating of liquid-cooled PMT gun
When starting to weld or during welding, the overheat protection on the liquid-cooled MIG
welding gun has activated. Check that there is sucient liquid in the cooling unit and that
air is circulating freely through it. Ensure that liquid is circulating freely through the cooling
hoses.
Err 154: Overloading of the wire feed motor
The welding has been interrupted because the loading of the wire feed motor has risen to
a high level. The cause of this could be a blockage of the wire line. Check the wire conduit,
contact tip and feed rolls.
Err 155: Warning of the wire feed unit overloading
The wire feed motor load level has risen. The cause could be dirty wire conduits or a gun cable
twisted into sharp curves. Check the state of the gun and clean the wire line if necessary.
Err 165: Gas guard alarm
Gas guard function has worked, because the pressure of gas has decreased. Possibly reasons:
Gas is unconnected to the wire feeder. Gas has been ran out, gas hose is leaking or there is no
pressure enough in the gas web. Connect the gas to the wire feeder, check gas hose and the
pressure of the gas web.
