What this really means
Fatal
– meaning you
have to power down
to reset. Otherwise,
you weld again to
reset.
Likely problem
E009
NO GUN LIFT DURING PI- LOT
ARC PERIOD
The gun did not lift within the pilot arc
period
Shorted gun control cable, mechanical binding of
the gun, pilot arc pcb failure, or excessive
contaminants on work surface.
-See troubleshooting-
E010
CAPACITOR VOLTAGE
COULD NOT BE READ
The sensed capacitor V-F signal is not
within the acceptable bounds.
Check V-F signal from Switch Boards
-See troubleshooting-
E011
UNIT TOO HOT PLEASE
WAIT
The thermal sensor was tripped. This
error will disappear when the sensor
resets.
Thermal sensor on output PCB heatsink has been
activated. Wait for it to cool down.
-See troubleshooting-
E012
SHORT CIRCUIT- CHECK
GUN LIFT SETTING
If a short circuit was detected for at least
100ms, the weld aborts to protect the
power unit.
Check the gun lift setting. Under normal welding
conditions, this should not happen.
-See troubleshooting-
E013
WELD FAILED
–OUT OF TO-
LERANCE
The last weld was out of tolerance from
the target weld by weld energy or drop
time.
The error display will determine and display the
offending parameter. Change the weld setup
accordingly.
-See troubleshooting-
E014
NO STUD HIT DETECTION
The stud is expected to hit the workpiece
after the gun coil is de-energized, but
be- fore the main current is turned off. If
it is not detected, this error will occur.
Incorrect weld parameter setup. Check drop time,
weld time, and plunge time. Press LOCK button to
clear error.
