XXXX ***ERROR*** | Indicates that an error has occurred due to excessive electrical interference. |
CHECK SETTINGS | All of these error types turn off the arc voltage, wire feed speed, and sole- |
| noid. Press the Process key, per second message, and check all settings |

LOW LINE: CHECK RECONNECT PANEL
PRESS ANY KEY 
TO STOP MESSAGE
Indicates to operator that the input line voltage is too low to obtain the out- put set on the machine. 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 less than 75% of nominal line or if the voltage level set on the machine is not obtainable at that line voltage and load current. The opera- tor should check if the reconnect panel is wired properly. Lowering the set VOLTS and/or IPM can eliminate the message. Pressing any key or gun switch 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.) allowing the operator to view the increase or decrease in that setting.
