    摘要: Disclosed example power supplies, user interfaces, and methods are provided for simple and intuitive setup for configurable and/or default settings for a welding power source and/or wire feeder. The welding parameters may correspond to a default and/or factory setting that represents empirically adduced values for a particular welding procedure (e.g., based on material type, electrode diameter, welding process and/or tool, etc.). The welding parameters may additionally or alternatively be configured for a particular purpose. Once a configurable setting has been selected, the configurable setting controls the system output. Furthermore, once a configurable set of welding parameters has been established, the operator may return to the default settings by resetting the welding parameters.

    摘要: An example welding-type power supply includes: power conversion circuitry configured to convert input power to welding-type power; a user interface configured to receive two or more inputs associated with corresponding qualitative characteristics of a welding arc created by the welding-type power, wherein the two or more inputs are defined within corresponding ranges of the respective qualitative characteristics; and control circuitry configured to: in response to a change in a first one of the two or more inputs, determine a corresponding change in a second one of the two or more inputs based on a relationship between the first and second ones of the two or more inputs; determine two or more welding-type parameters based on the two or more inputs; and control the power conversion circuitry based on the determined welding-type parameters.
