MigSonic252S+SS20 Board Opening Map

This is the fast internal opening map for MigSonic252S+SS20 once feeder package, spool-gun, and base-gun branches are already bounded.

Open Only After Proving

base MIG output has been proven or ruled out
feeder package seating and interconnect are already checked
spool-gun-only complaints are already separated
source readouts, jog or purge response, and idle gas state are already checked at the power source

First Internal Targets

Board or internal group	Open first when...	Key connector or checkpoint	Best local file to open first
Source-side power branch	the solenoid is open at startup or the machine behaves wrong before feeder proving	source-side power behavior	workbook sheet `MigSonic252S`
Source-side control and readout branch	readouts freeze or act wrong	source control logic and readout path	workbook sheet `MigSonic252S`
Interconnect and feeder-side separation	feeder package is blamed but source behavior is unclear	package seating and branch separation	`MigSonic252S_owner_manual.pdf` and workbook

Connector and Board-Family Reminders

All controls live in the power source on this family. Do not invent a feeder PCB branch that is not really there.
Keep spool-gun full-speed complaints on the branch and connection path first.
Use a proven base MIG baseline before any deeper feeder blame.
Do not open the machine while the source still shows frozen readouts, bad jog or purge behavior, or gas open at idle.

External Parts Exit Paths

If the opening pass shows the complaint still follows the spool-gun or feeder-side accessory branch, leave the board path and use the official ordering flow instead.

Stop Rules

Stop if base MIG is healthy and only the spool-gun branch still fails.
Stop if source-side readouts, jog or purge behavior, or idle gas state are already obviously wrong before any external swap.
Stop and return to the full guide if source and feeder evidence still conflict after the first opening pass.
