USING THE STATUS LED TO TROUBLESHOOT SYSTEM PROBLEMS
Not all of the Arc Tracker ™ errors will be displayed on the user interface. If a problem occurs it is important to note the con-
dition of the status lights. Therefore, prior to cycling power to the system, check the power source status light for error
sequences as noted below.
Error conditions are indicated in the following Table E.1.
Light
Condition
Steady Green
Blinking Green
Alternating Green and Red
Meaning
System OK.
Occurs during power up or a system reset. Normal for first 1-10 sec-
onds after power is turned on, or if the system configuration is changed
during operation.
Non-recoverable system fault. If the Status lights are flashing any com-
bination of red and green, errors are present. Read the error code(s)
before the machine is turned off.
Error Code interpretation through the Status light. Individual code
digits are flashed in red with a long pause between digits. If more than
one code is present, the codes will be separated by a green light. Only
active error conditions will be accessible through the Status Light.
Error codes can also be retrieved with the Diagnostics Utility (includ-
ed on the Service Navigator CD or available at www.power-
wavesoftware.com ). This is the preferred method, since it can access
historical information contained in the error logs.
To clear the active error(s), turn power source off, and back on to
reset.
