Troubleshooting, Status and Error Messages
13.1 Status and Error Messages
AUTOTUNE FAILURE
This message is displayed when AutoTune is unable to calculate control loop
parameters when doing a quick tune.
AUTOTUNE MAX POWER
The power setting in AutoTune has increased beyond the material’s max
power setting less 5%. (Autotune Max Power is set at 5% less than the
maximum power programmed for the material being AutoTuned.)
AUTOTUNE SUCCESSFUL
Control loop parameters have been successfully established by AutoTune.
AUTOTUNE TIMEOUT
AutoTune is unable to maintain a stable deposition or complete the
measurement of a deposition transition.
BAD XTAL AND RUNNING
This message is displayed when attempting to turn on a sensor which has a
failed crystal while executing a process.
bb RAM LOCK
Indicates the battery backed RAM lock feature is active. Shown in reverse
video.
BOTH SNSR ON IN MATL
Shown when attempting to change the Sensor Type parameter to a Dual
sensor head while both sensors are turned on in a Material Set Up display.
CALIBRATION TIMEOUT
When in automatic cross talk calibration, each sensor used to control the
aggregate rate must have a crystal frequency shift of 300 Hz. The calibration
algorithm will time-out if a 300 Hz minimum frequency shift has not taken place
within 15 minutes.
CANNOT DELETE CO-DEP
A layer being co-deposited cannot be deleted. Set the parameter
co-deposition to NO prior to deleting the layer.
CANNOT EMPTY PROCESS
The last layer of Process 1 cannot be deleted.
CANNOT INSERT CO-DEP
A layer cannot be inserted between two co-deposited layers.
