The Power Wave

SD is equipped with one externally

mounted status light. If a problem occurs it is important to note the
condition of the status lights. Therefore, prior to cycling power to
the system, check the power source status light for error
sequences as noted below.

Included in this section is information about the power source Status
LED and some basic troubleshooting charts for both machine and
weld performance.

The STATUS LIGHT is a dual-color LED that indicates system errors.
Normal operation is steady green. Error conditions are indicated in the
following Table E.1.

is mapping (identifying) each component in the system. Normal for first 1-10
seconds after power is turned on, or if the system configuration is changed
during operation.

Under normal conditions indicates Auto-mapping has failed. Also used by
Weld Manager and Submerged Arc Cell Setup (available at www.power-
wavesoftware.com
) to identify the selected machine when connecting to a
specific IP address.

Non-recoverable system fault. If the Status lights are flashing any combination
of red and green, errors are present. Read the error code(s) before the
machine is turned off.

Error Code interpretation through the Status light is detailed in the Service
Manual. Individual code digits are flashed in red with a long pause between
digits. If more than one code is present, the codes will be separated by a
green light. Only active error conditions will be accessible through the Status
Light.

Error codes can also be retrieved with Weld Manager under System Status
(available at www.powerwavesoftware.com). This is the preferred method,
since it can access historical information contained in the error log.

To clear the active error(s), turn power source off, and back on to reset.
