USING THE STATUS LED TO TROUBLESHOOT SYSTEM PROBLEMS

The STT Module is equipped with a Status Light. If a problem occurs it is important to note the condition of the sta-
®
tus lights. Therefore, prior to cycling power to the system, check the power source status light for error
sequences in Table E.1.

Occurs during power up or a system reset, and indicates the power source is mapping (iden-
tifying) each component in the system. Normal for first 1-30 seconds after power is turned
on, or if the system configuration is changed during operation.
Under normal conditions indicates Auto-mapping has failed.
Also used by the diagnostic utility (included in the Weld Manager
available at www.powerwavesoftware.com) to identify the selected machine when con-
necting to a specific IP address.
Non-recoverable system fault. If the Status lights are flashing any combination of red and
green, errors are present. Read the error code(s) before the machine is turned off.
Error Code interpretation through the Status light is detailed in the Service Manual. Individual
code digits are flashed in red with a long pause between digits. If more than one code is pre-
sent, the codes will be separated by a green light. Only active error conditions will be acces-
sible through the Status Light.
Error codes can also be retrieved with the diagnostics utility (included in the Weld Manager
Utilities available at www.powerwavesoftware.com). This is the preferred method, since it
can access historical information contained in the error log. To clear the active error(s), turn
power source off, and back on to reset.
