Message Explanation

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

HIGH LINE: CHECK

 

Indicates to operator that the line voltage is too high, and the output voltage has

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

RECONNECT PANEL

 

 

 

 

been reduced to protect the capacitor bank voltage rating limits. The operator can

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

continue to weld, but the voltage will be less than what is set on the machine. This

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

message occurs when the line voltage is greater than 121% of nominal line. The

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

PRESS ANY KEY

 

operator should check if the reconnect panel is wired properly. Pressing any key or

gun switch when the operator is not welding will stop the message from being dis-

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

played. Pressing any increment or decrement arrow keys or gun switch while weld-

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

ing will temporarily stop the message from being displayed (approximately 1.3

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

sec.) allowing the operator to view the increase or decrease in that setting.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

CURRENT OVERLOAD

 

Indicates to operator that too much current is being drawn from the machine, and

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

REDUCE OUTPUT

 

 

 

the output has been reduced to prevent the current from exceeding safe levels.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

This will typically occur in Manual mode using .045 (1.2mm) wire and WFS greater

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

than 275 IPM (7.0m/min.). Lowering the WFS will reduce the output requirement

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

PRESS ANY KEY

 

and allow operation within the machine ratings. Pressing any key or gun switch

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

TO STOP MESSAGE

 

when the operator is not welding will stop the message from being displayed.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Pressing any increment or decrement arrow keys or gun switch while welding will

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

temporarily stop the message from being displayed (approximately 1.3 sec.) allow-

Indicates a fault in system RAM. Turn power off and back on again. If this mes-
