Optics Fault
The lower cover glass or focusing parabola is not present, or the Scattered Light reading
is above the upper limit.
Temperature Fault
One or more temperatures are above the upper limit.
Purge Fault
The Purge Pressure is below the lower limit or above the upper limit.
Position Fault
The nozzle assembly moved unexpectedly or encountered difficulty moving to the
commanded position.
Perform a Reset.
HSU Fault
Indicates the fault code of the HSU or an error with the curve setting.
1 (001) = Tip Open
2 (010) = Tip Shorted
3 (011) = Cable Break
5 (101) = Curve Data Error
6 (110) = Invalid Curve Number (Set HSU Curve register)
7 (111) = Failed to set curve (Set HSU Curve register)
Servo Enabled
Under proper operating conditions , the controller is commanding the servo to turn on.
Cal Ack.
The HSU has received and completed a calibration command.
Servo Is On
The servo motor is energized and maintaining the commanded position.
In Position
The nozzle assembly is in the commanded position.
TOUCH
The tip is making contact with a surface.
READY
The HSU is calibrated and all sensors are within the appropriate ranges.
Digital Input Descriptions
The config bit states are updated whenever the byte value is changed. Note that USB commands such
as those generated using FiberCUT
®
2D Monitor can also change these states.
INPUT
DESCRIPTION
Enable Servo
Energize the servo motor to maintain the moving nozzle assembly position.
Suppress Low Purge Fault
When set to 1, Purge Pressure readings below the lower limit will not generate a
Purge Fault.
Each command bit below triggers ONLY ONCE on a state change (from 0 to 1).
INPUT
DESCRIPTION
Zero Pressure
Sets the zero point of the Purge Pressure reading to the current ambient pressure.
The purge gas must be turned off for this setting to function.
Move Position
Move the nozzle assembly to the Set Position specified in tenths of millimeters.
Reset
Clears a Position Fault and allows the servo to be re-enabled.
CAL
Send a Calibrate command to the HSU.
