Abstract
A multifunction meter and method for monitoring a welding-type device is disclosed. The multifunction meter has a single display unit, a first input configured to receive feedback from an engine, and a second input configured to receive feedback from a power converter. The engine is configured to deliver power to the power converter which is configured to deliver a welding-type power to a welding-type apparatus. A processing unit is connected to the single display unit, the first input, and the second input, and processes the feedback from the engine and the feedback from the power converter and displays data indicative of engine operation and power output of the power converter on the single display unit.
