OPERATIONB-15

On Screen Error Message		Message Explanation
REQ’S: STAINLESS		An attempt was made to recall from memory an Auto setup whose process doesn’t
WIRE .035 Ar02		match the process in the machine. This message indicates the process required
		and alternates with the second message until the Process key is pressed.

WHEN INSTALLED
DATA ***ERROR***		An attempt was made to recall a setup from memory that has improper settings
CHECK SETTINGS		due to excessive electrical interference. The SP-255 will recall the setup and reset
		the improper data to within machine limits. However, all settings should be
		checked, properly set if needed, and then resaved to that memory. This message
PRESS PROCESS TO		alternates with the second message until the Process key is pressed.
CHECK SETTINGS
MOTOR OVERLOADED		Unit shut down even though trigger was closed. There is an excessive current
CHECK GUN, DRIVE		draw on the motor. Check for proper size tip, liner, and drive rolls, for any obstruc-
		tions or bends in the gun cable, and any other factors that would impede the wire
		feeding. To resume welding, simply pull the trigger.
XXXX ***ERROR***		Indicates that an error has occurred due to excessive electrical interference. All of
CHECK SETTINGS		these error types turn off the arc voltage, wire feed speed, and solenoid. Press the
		Process key, per second message, and check all settings before continuing to
PRESS PROCESS TO		weld.

		DATA
GUN SWITCH BEING		Reminds the operator that the gun switch is being used to toggle between memory
USED FOR TOGGLE		4 and memory 5 and, therefore, is not able to control IPM or arc VOLTS.
CONNECT FOR		Reminds the operator to change the electrode polarity to negative when
NEG. POLARITY		Innershield wire type is selected.
	LOW LINE: CHECK	Indicates to operator that the input line voltage is too low to obtain the output set
	RECONNECT PANEL	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
	PRESS ANY KEY	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 operator should check if the
	TO STOP MESSAGE	reconnect panel is wired properly. Lowering the set VOLTS and/or IPM can elimi-
		nate the message. Pressing any key or gun switch when the operator is not weld-
		ing will stop the message from being displayed. Pressing any increment or decre-
		ment 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.
