Group 3 -- Gas Controller Status & Protocol
301
Gas control communication
fault
Problem with fiber optic cable to GCM 2010; Dirt on fiber ends or in connec-
tors; blow out with clean dry air. Fiber not locked into connector; Sharp bends
in fiber cable; Fiber defective; GCM 2010 circuit board defect;
302 Gas Control reply fault
Problem with fiber optic cable to GCM 2010; Dirt on fiber ends or in connec-
tors; blow out with clean dry air. Fiber not locked into connector; Sharp bends
in fiber cable; Fiber defective; GCM 2010 circuit board defect;
303
Gas Supply Pressure out of
range.
GCM 2010 inlet plasma or shield pressure low or defective pressure sensors
PS3 & PS4; Defective GCM 2010 PCB.
304 Gas Control Purging
Normal following power up or returning from Plasma Disable. Wait for purge
to finish.
305 Gas Control protocol error Verify Firmware revision for compatibility with GCM 2010
306 Not used Reserved for other future use.
307
Gas Control sequencing
error Verify Firmware revision for compatibility with GCM 2010
308 Gas Control Type Mismatch Wrong CCM (Auto-Cut or Pak 200 type?) for Ultra-Cut; Install correct CCM
309 Gas Control command fault
Verify Firmware revision for compatibility with GCM 2010; Electromagnetic
interference with Arc Starter; inspect grounding; bonding; and isolation

Group 4 -- Torch Coolant System
401 Coolant Level low Check coolant level, add as needed. Defective or disconnected level sensor.
402
Low coolant flow
Coolant flow as measured by flow switch FS1 is less than 0.7 gpm; Clogged filter;
Restriction in torch lead or head; Wrong style consumables; broken or defective
torch coolant tube/check valve; Defective pump or bypass valve.
403
Coolant overheated
Coolant supply temperature exceeded 75 degrees Celcius (167F). Operating with
side panel loose or removed; Air flow blocked at air inlet or exit of power supply;
Coolant fan failed; radiator fins clogged with dirt.
404
Coolant System not
ready.
Proper coolant flow of 0.7 gpm as measured by flow switch FS1 was not obtained
during up to 4 minutes of Priming. New installation can require additional Priming
cycle(s) to fill hoses with coolant; cylce power to restart Priming; Coolant hoses
or torch hoses reversed; Clogged coolant filter; Restriction in torch lead or head;
Wrong style consumables; broken or defective torch coolant tube/check valve;
Defective or disconnected FS1 flow SW; Defective pump or bypass valve.
405
Low Coolant Level Warn-
ing
Low coolant level during cut, does not stop cut.
Add coolant as required.
406
Coolant Flow Low Warn-
ing.
This is a warning, does not stop system operation. Coolant flow rate lower than ex-
pected. Can be caused by gas bubbles being introduced into the coolant or wrong or
mismatched or worn consumable parts; Failed seals in torch cartridge or torch body;
Clogged coolant filter; Restriction in torch lead or head; defective or disconnected
FL1 flow sensor.
407
Coolant overheated, high
ambient.
Coolant supply temperature exceeded 75 degrees Celsius (167 Fahrenheit) likely
cause ambient greater than 40 degrees Celsius (104 Fahrenheit); Reduce cutting
duty cycle; Reduce ambient temperature; Add separate coolant cooler.
No Group 5 (500) status codes with GCM 2010 system.
