Coplay Norstar: Norstar M200i-M missing setup sheet

admin

Hey gang. Just bought a new Norstar M200i-M from a local welder supply. I love it so far but I've only ran like a handful of beads. Anyone have one and if so does it have the setup sheet on the inside of the door? I am VERY new and having this I think would help me with a starting point for setup. I've looked at the Miller setup calculator which is nice I guess. But when the calculator says so many IPM for wire speed, I have no idea what that relates to on my machines knob. I called them but the people I have talked to don't seem to know if it's supposed to be there or not. The operators manual references it but it's not there. The same brand M140 I exchanged for this one even had.There isn't much of anything out there on the web for these welders. Thanks,A.W.
Reply:You may have to figure the wire speed manually, set the dial and squeeze the trigger for 6 seconds, measure and multiply times 10, change speed and repeat.Write it down so you will have a chart.Hobart Handler 210 MVPAHP AlphaTIG 200XHypertherm Powermax 30 Air

Reply:I'm such a newb I probably wouldn't notice. Been watching lots of you tube videos and reading a lot to try and get an idea of what to look for.  Guess we'll see how it goes. It's better than the random settings I was doing
