5.04 Fault Indicator

At initial power up, two lights will temporarily illu-

minate for 2-3 seconds to show the version of software

used.

To determine the first digit, count the function indica-

tors left to right, 1 through 5. To determine the second

digit count the pressure indicators, reading from bot-

tom to top, 0 through 7. In the example below the

Temp indicator and 75 psi indicators are on indicating

the version would be 2.3.

"Fault" indicator is on or blinking it

will be accompanied by one of the pressure indi-

cator lights depending on what the Fault is. Only

one of these faults will be displayed at one time.

If more than one fault exists, when the first fault

is corrected and cleared, the next fault will then be

displayed. It is possible to have a fault indicated in

the function indicators and another fault indictated

in the pressure indicators. The following table

shows each of the Faults possible.

tables.

Explanation of Faults

" UNDER PRESSURE: Indicates that operating

pressure is set too low and power supply out-

put power will be disabled.

INPUT POWER: Indicates primary line voltage is

outside the operating limits of the power sup-

ply as selected by the setting of INPUT VOLT-

AGE SELECTION SWITCH at the rear of the

unit. Low is 208/230 VAC and high is 460 VAC.

PART IN PLACE: Indicates that the shield cup is

not properly installed or tightened.

START ERROR: Indicates that the START SIGNAL

was active (ie. Torch Trigger depressed, hand

held pendant switch on or CNC signal for torch

on) during one of three conditions:

1) During initial power up when ON/OFF

switch is turned to ON position

2) When fault which had been disabling the

system is cleared.

3) When the FUNCTION CONTROL SWITCH

Mode is moved from SET position to any of

the other three (3) modes of operation.

CONSUMABLES MISSING: Indicates that the

electrode, start cartridge or tip is missing or

excessively worn.

SHORTED TORCH: Indicates the torch or lead

has a shorted condition between positive and

negative leads.

INTERNAL ERROR: Indicates a microprocessor

error.

OVER PRESSURE: Indicates that operating pres-

sure is set too high. The Error Indicator will

not flash when the pressure is above 95 PSI.

This LED will remain on and the system will

operate but pilot starting and cut performance

may be affected.

NOTE

The cooling fans will turn on as soon as the unit

is turned on. After the unit is idle for ten (10)

minutes the fans will turn off. The fans will

come back on as soon as the torch switch (Start

Signal) is activated or if the unit is turned off,

then turned on again. If an over temperature

condition occurs, the fans will continue to run

while the condition exists and for a ten (10)

minute period once the condition is cleared.
