Section 6 Diagnostics - Fault and Status Messages

When the press control screen reports a stop condition that indicates the auto-setup board asserted or is asserting a stop signal, the “Auto-Sets” screen module status and the individual sub-systems status line will give additional information.

Section 6.1 Main Module Messages

All Conditions OK

General Module status is ok. This does not mean that the individual sub

 

systems such as shut height control, counterbalance, and cushion control are

 

ok.

Communication Fault

The OmniLink 5000 OIT cannot communicate with the auto-setup card. This

 

may indicate a total failure of the base card or a blown communications chip.

A/D Converter Fail

The A/D converter on the base card of the auto-setup module is not

 

responding correctly. This will prevent operation of all air controlled systems

 

such as counterbalances, cushions, and hydraulic overload. If the air system is

 

using a type “C” valve (see section 3.1), it can be turned OFF in the

 

configurations screen and will revert to manual control.

Bad Config Data

The configuration data stored in non-volatile ram was corrupted. The auto-

 

setup card will need to be reconfigured after pressing the reset error key in the

 

“Auto Sets” screen.

Bad NV Ram

The non-volatile ram cannot be read or written to correctly. This indicates a

 

hardware problem with either the microprocessor or the ram.

Interrupt Timeout

The OmniLink 5000 control should send an interrupt to the auto-setup module

 

every so often. This error is generated if that does not happen and indicates

 

some kind of hardware problem.

Section 6.2 Counterbalance, Cushion, and Hydraulic Overload “Fault” Messages

None

No error.

Transducer Fail

The pressure transducer gave a reading that is out of its normal range or gave

 

no reading at all. Check that the transducer cable is still plugged in. If it is,

 

check for cable damage. If the cable checks out the transducer may need to be

 

replaced.

Bad Module

The unit did not sense an option module in the slot it was configured for.

 

Indicates that the option card is unplugged or has failed.

Fill/Dump Reversed

Indicates the fill output was connected to the dump valve and vice versa. The

 

system checks the air pressure when it is filling or dumping and if it goes the

 

other direction assumes the lines have been connected incorrectly.
