Voltmeter (UPPER) - Displays DC output voltage.
ammeter (LOWER) - Displays output current setting.
The voltmeter and ammeter screens alternately display Model, Test and the Software version along with help code

When unit is initially switched on the Model, PIP (Parts in Place) and Software version will be briefly displayed. Lower
display will then show Current Setting.
g. TEMP Indicator lamp.
The amber lamp will illuminate to indicate an internal overheating condition has occurred, one of the thermal switches
has opened. User control of the power source will be interrupted and the unit will shut down to protect critical com-
ponents. Leave the power on to allow the fan time to cool off the unit. Once cooled to a safe temperature, the thermal
switch will automatically reset and output control will be restored.
h. faulT Indicator lamp.
The red lamp will illuminate to indicate an error has occurred, operator attention is required. See item F. Display Screens
and refer to Section 6.2 List of Help Codes.
Important Note:
If after the initial sequence the display does not show the Current Setting but reverts back to displaying the model "ESP-
101", the machine has detected a premature torch trigger condition. Disengage the torch trigger and restart the machine.
(As a safety precaution, the ESP-101 will not power up with the torch trigger engaged.)
