Embodiments of systems and methods related to the automatic adjustment of auto-darkening filter device parameters in response to settings of a welding system are disclosed. One embodiment includes a head-mounted device having a wireless receiver, an auto-darkening device, and a selection device. The wireless receiver is configured to receive wirelessly transmitted communication signals from an arc welding system which represent a present welding current setting and a present welding mode setting of the arc welding system. The selection device is configured to automatically select a shade and a sensitivity of the auto-darkening device in response to the present welding current setting and the present welding mode setting. The auto-darkening device is configured to sense the presence of an arc, transition from an un-darkened state to a darkened state in response to the arc, and transition from the darkened state to the un-darkened state when the arc is no longer present.
