1-5 Of the Plate Function not currently enabled.
1-6 Pilot Timed out w/o Transfer Must transfer from Pilot to Cutting Arc in 85 ms. (SW8-1
OFF) or 3 sec. (SW8-1 ON). Standoff too high or void in
work under torch; cut current too low for consumables;
Preflow pressure too low.
1-7 Tip Saver Function not currently enabled.
1-8 Possible Shorted Torch Detected tip voltage too close to electrode voltage.
Plasma flow/pressure too low; Plasma leak; cut current
too high; shorted torch body; consumable parts worn
out.
2-1 Missing Phase Blown fuse, Broken or loose connection on power cable
Inverter(s) not configured correctly for input voltage;
Poor power quality (brownouts, dropouts);
Input power capacity / wiring too small causing voltage
drop; broken or loose power cable connections.

output; Shorted pilot regulator (chopper); CCM voltage
sense (J6) wire open or disconnected.
2-6 Primary over current or
imbalance fault Over current detected in inverter primary circuit, remove
power to reset; defective inverter; voltage surge;
2-7 Unexpected current Current >20A in work or pilot leads before pilot ignition;
Possible shorted torch; Defective current sensor.
2-8 Unexpected current in pilot
circuit Current > 5A in pilot circuit; wrong or mismatched
consumables; Pilot lead shorted to negative in torch tube;
Possible shorted torch
2-9 Unexpected current in work
lead Current > 5A in work lead; Short to chassis in RAS;
Negative lead short to gnd.
