Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for utilizing discrete input controls for push-pull guns/torches, spool guns/torches, MIG (GTAW) torches, and/or TIG (GTAW) torches. A welding-type torch configured for applying welds may include an input component configured for setting a welding-type parameter associated with a welding-type device that is used in conjunction with the welding-type torch during welding-type operations, with the input component configured to cause adjusting the welding-type parameter by a preset discrete value in response to each individual action on the input component by a user of the welding-type torch.
