If you answered yes to any one of the previous questions and the Apex passed the
Internal Diagnostics test, the Apex is probably working properly and it may be
reacting to an external load condition. You may want to consult your Process Engineer
or system manufacturer to troubleshoot chamber related issues.
ERROR CODES
Error codes indicate a fault condition and report the most recent active error or alarm
condition from the Apex unit. You can able to view error codes through a serial
communication port such as RS-232. Another way to view error codes is through the
Virtual Front Panel which provides an easy way to control an Apex generator through
a personal computer. Call AE Global Support for information. The following table
explains the specific error code meanings and solutions.
