Short-circuit
(current flowing, but
no voltage)
The electrode has contacted the workpiece during the process.
This leads to a reduction of the arc voltage below the "standard" value (from approx.
10 V); the system detects a short-circuit regardless of the settings in the monitoring
limits.
X
Eliminate short-circuit.
X
Re-grind 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 setpoint 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
Set the pressure regulator on the BUP box to max. 10 bar if applicable.
X
Correct input pressure from bottle manometer if applicable.
See also: Operating instructions of the BUP unit itself.

Additional procedures
cannot be created!
For messages with "90%" specifications:
Resources almost used up. Additional data can still be saved.
Recommendation:
X
Clean up system by deleting or externally saving data which is no longer required.
The number of folders and procedures per folder is limited to 100, however.
30
Over 90% of resources
used up for procedures!
31
Additional folders can-
not be created!
32
Over 90% of resources
used up for folders!
33
The procedure cannot
be loaded!
Procedure cannot be loaded after switch-on.
When the machine is switched on, the last used program is loaded. If this is not possible
(e.g. memory card removed), the default program is loaded.
X
Contact Orbitalum if the problem cannot be resolved.
34
A problem occurred when saving the procedure.
The error appears in "plain text" (see messages 18 through 28) or as a two-digit number.
