6.1
Section 6 Diagnostics - Fault and Status Messages
When the press control screen reports a stop condition that indicates the auto-setup board asserted or is
asserting a stop signal, the “Auto-Sets” screen module status and the individual sub-systems status line
will give additional information.
Section 6.1 Main Module Messages
All Conditions OK General Module status is ok. This does not mean that the individual sub
systems such as shut height control, counterbalance, and cushion control are
ok.
Communication Fault The OmniLink 5000 OIT cannot communicate with the auto-setup card. This
may indicate a total failure of the base card or a blown communications chip.
A/D Converter Fail The A/D converter on the base card of the auto-setup module is not
responding correctly. This will prevent operation of all air controlled systems
such as counterbalances, cushions, and hydraulic overload. If the air system is
using a type “C” valve (see section 3.1), it can be turned OFF in the
configurations screen and will revert to manual control.
Bad Config Data
The configuration data stored in non-volatile ram was corrupted. The auto-
setup card will need to be reconfigured after pressing the reset error key in the
“Auto Sets” screen.
Bad NV Ram The non-volatile ram cannot be read or written to correctly. This indicates a
hardware problem with either the microprocessor or the ram.
Interrupt Timeout The OmniLink 5000 control should send an interrupt to the auto-setup module
every so often. This error is generated if that does not happen and indicates
some kind of hardware problem.
Section 6.2 Counterbalance, Cushion, and Hydraulic Overload “Fault” Messages
None No error.
Transducer Fail
The pressure transducer gave a reading that is out of its normal range or gave
no reading at all. Check that the transducer cable is still plugged in. If it is,
check for cable damage. If the cable checks out the transducer may need to be
replaced.
Bad Module
The unit did not sense an option module in the slot it was configured for.
Indicates that the option card is unplugged or has failed.
Fill/Dump Reversed Indicates the fill output was connected to the dump valve and vice versa. The
system checks the air pressure when it is filling or dumping and if it goes the
other direction assumes the lines have been connected incorrectly.
