configuration data.
7
"System memory lost"
Memory corrupted.
Recycle power.
8
"Calibration memory
lost"
Calibration data lost.
Contact CI service department at
to
obtain instructions on restoring
calibration data or recalibrate unit.
9
"Start angle must be first
sequence"
Start phase angle in wrong
place..
Start phase angles can only
programmed at the start of a
transient list. Once a transient is in
progress, phase angle cannot be
changed.
10
"Illegal for DC"
Operation not possible in DC
mode.
Switch to AC or AC+DC mode.
11 "Duplicate
sequence"
Transient list sequence
number already used.
User new or available sequence
number instead.
12
"Too many sequence"
Number of transient list steps
exceeds maximum.
Reduce the number of steps in the
transient list. (Max = 32 for Series I
or 100 for Series II).
13
"Missing list parameter"
One or more transient list
parameters missing.
Check programmed lists.
14
"Voltage peak error "
Peak voltage exceeds internal
bus voltage
This error may occur when
selecting user defined wave shapes
with higher crest factors. Reduce
programmed RMS value.
15
"Slew time exceed
dwell"
Time needed to slew to final
value is less than dwell time.
Check dwell times in transient list
settings. Increase dwell time or
change slew rate for affected
parameter.
16
"Illegal during transient"
Operation requested not
available while transient is
running.
Wait till transient execution is
completed or abort transient
execution first.
17
"Output relay must be
closed"
Operation not possible with
open relay
Close relay before attempting
operation. E.g. transient execution
requires output relay to be closed.
18
"Trans. duration less then
1msec"
Dwell time below minimum
or 1 msec
Increase dwell time to at least 1
msec.
19
"Clock and sync must be
internal"
Operation not possible with
external clock
Switch to internal sync. (Default)
20
"Input buffer full"
Too much data received.
Break up data in smaller blocks.
21 "EOS
Fault"
Hardware error reported by
EOS option.
This option is not available on
BPS Series products.
Cycle power on EOS to reset error.
If error persists, contact CI service
at
for repair.
22
"Waveform harmonics
limit"
Harmonic contents of user
defined wave shape are too
high and could damage
amplifier.
Reduce harmonic content or reduce
fundamental frequency
programmed.
23
"ALC or Impedance
must be off"
Conflict between ALC and
programmable impedance
mode.
Turn off ALC to use programmable
impedance. Turn off programmable
impedance to use ALC.
24
"Output relay must be
open”
Attempting to change voltage
range while output relay is
Open output relay first, then
change range. This ensures the load
