System Status Codes
In the event the safety system detects an error, the LEDs on the switch box will display a status code to indicate
what error has been detected. Figure 52 shows the different possible status codes which can be displayed. A
description of each status code and the necessary corrective action is provided on the following pages.
System Initializing — this code indicates that the system is performing self-checks and energizing the brake
system to activate in the case of an accident. This condition should clear within 15 seconds after the main
power switch is turned on. If the ambient temperature is very low (below about 0º F), this code may take longer
to clear. The safety system detects such low temperatures within the brake cartridge. If necessary, the system
turns on a heater inside the cartridge to raise the temperature of the electronics. This code will continue until
the temperature inside the brake cartridge is within the normal operating range.
System Ready — this code indicates that all self-checks have been completed, the safety system is operating
properly, and the saw is in Standby Mode ready to run.
