PCS2 Service Manual
When the PCS2 is powered on, a hardware-based safety system is actively
monitoring the operation of the system. If the PCS2 safety system detects
an error, the system will enter into a safe non-active state. The operation
of the PCS2 is suspended until the operator forces a procedure recovery or
powers the PCS2 off. The following is an example of the screen displayed
when a safety system error is detected.
Note:
The codes listed above are just examples. Codes will vary
depending on the cause of the problem.
The Command Register defines the mode of operation the machine was in
when the fault occurred. This information is helpful in determining the
cause of the safety system error fault. Table 6-1, Error Codes of the
Command Register, lists the possible error codes and the corresponding
modes of operation. The Fault Registers define the actual fault that was
detected. Table 6-2, Error Codes of the Fault Register, lists the possible
error codes, explanation of the codes, and the corresponding corrective
actions. Table 6-3, Error Codes of the Critical Register, lists the possible
error codes and the descriptions of the codes.
The Critical Registers are used to better define the occurrence of a critical
fault, a flow fault, or an air fault. If one of these faults is identified in the
Fault Register, the Critical Register will provide more information about
the fault. If an error code is not listed in the respective tables for the
Command Register, Fault Registers, or Critical Registers, call the Plasma
Hot Line at 800-356-3506 for assistance.
