Error message
Explanation/Elimination
10
Speed
Supplement to "Warning". The limit values specified in the monitoring limits
(warning) of the speed were overshot or undershot.
X
Check the limit values.
X
Check the weld head speed.
X
If required, carry out motor calibration.
11
Speed abort
The weld speed has overshot or undershot the limit values specified for abor-
tion in the monitoring limits and the process was aborted.
Check limit values; they may be too close together.
Possible causes for speed aborting:
Mechanically blocked, jamming or defective weld heads.
X
Check whether the weld head can be moved manually (or with the remote
control).
X
If required, carry out motor calibration.
12
Time limit for high-voltage
ignition exceeded
After the ignition device was switched on, an arc was not ignited within approx.
3 seconds. The process is interrupted.
Causes for failed arc ignition:
Fault in the marginal conditions of the process, e.g. forgotten ground connec-
tion (siehe Kap. 9.2.5, Seite 143 "Ignition problems").
13
Inverter
Fault in serial communication (RS232) between the PC control system and
inverter.
X
Switch the machine off and after approximately 30 seconds on again.
Is the fault still occurring?
X
Contact your specialist dealer or Orbitalum.
14
Arc has cut out
Arc ignition was successful, but the arc cut out during the process.
Causes:
• Interruption of welding circuit (contact problems, ground terminal).
• Currents too low (low pulse may not be under 5 A for standard applica-
tions!).
• Excessively low final current.
• Arc gap too large.
• Strong draft causes arc to cut out
15
Short-circuit
(current flowing, but no volt-
age)
The electrode has contacted the workpiece during the process.
This leads to a reduction of the arc voltage below the "standard" value (from ap-
prox. 10 V); the system detects a short-circuit regardless of the settings in the
monitoring limits.
X
Eliminate the short-circuit.
X
Re-grind the electrode.
X
Grind out any tungsten inclusions in the weld seam.
16
Forming gas pressure
When used with forming gas pressure regulation.
The actual value of the pressure deviates too strongly from the specified set-
point value (warning or process abortion).
Causes:
• Actual value too low; see interior pressure reading in display.
• Possible excessively low input pressure from bottle manometer.
X
Ensure that there are no excessively large gaps (pipe joint?).
X
Ensure that the plugs are sealing tightly so that pressure can build up.
X
If required, set the pressure regulator on the BUP box to max. 10 bar.
X
If required, correct the input pressure from the bottle manometer.
See also: Operating instructions of the BUP unit itself.
17
Error code
Internal read-write error in the software.
"Error code" is followed by the error in "plain text" (see Messages 18 through
29) or a two-digit number.
