System Status Codes
The LED lights on the front of the switch box display the current status of the safety system. Each light may
be off, or may be on, and if it is on, it may be blinking slowly, blinking quickly, or not blinking at all, which we
call “on solid.” Together, the red and green lights display a code, referred to as the System Status Code, which
tells you if the saw is operating normally or if there is a problem. When you fi rst turn the Main Power switch on,
the safety system will complete an initialization routine to verify the
safety system is operating normally. After the initialization routine is
completed, you should not see the red light unless there is a System
Status problem. If this happens, fi nd the System Status code below
(see Fig. 66) to determine how to correct the problem.
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.
