There are two things that can cause this hardware fault:
a) GFI – the Ground Fault Interrupter has exceeded its
current trip point. A current detector monitors the current
through the three phases of the motor and asserts this fault
when the total current applied to the tool does not equal the
total current returned from the tool. All phases are turned
off immediately to protect the controller from shorts at the
tool end.
b) Total Current – the controller software limits the current
applied to any tool based on what the tool can handle. This
fault is asserted if there is a short at the tool end and the
total current applied is greater than allowed.
The controller monitors the +5VDC, -5VDC and +12VDC of its
onboard Power Supply. This fault is asserted when those voltages
fall outside of nominal range.
The controller is constantly monitoring the resolver zero and span
points and asserts this fault if they go outside specification.
This fault is asserted when the transducer zero point has shifted far
enough to prevent a full scale reading from the transducer.
This fault is asserted when the tool temperature detector has
reached the temperature limit set by the Temperature Limit
parameter. It resets after detected temperature has dropped by 5°C.
The controller is communicating to the tool but does not recognize
the model number written in the tool memory board.
The controller is not communicating to a tool.
Transducer current has fallen outside nominal values. For E series
tools that is 15.74 mA +/- 75% (4.5 – 26mA). For EA series tools
that is 4.16 mA +/- 75% (1 to 7mA).
The transducer zero point has shifted too far for the controller to
compensate. These points are visible on the controller diagnostics
screen under Analyze.
The wrong tool type has been connected to the controller. The
Theta controller cannot run the tool that is connected.
Used for Toyota Protocol only. Controller has lost
communications to the PI box.
Used for Toyota Protocol only. Controller and PI box have a bolt
count mismatch.
Used for Toyota Protocol only. More tightening cycles were
performed than the PI box expected.
Controller failed to update the tool configuration.
The parameter selected has nothing to configure.
