TROUBLESHOOTING GUIDE
1
Arc Voltage always reads
zero on Arc Voltage Control
•
Verify interface cable is wired correctly.
Refer to the INSTALLATION section of the
manual for correct wiring information.
•
Verify all wires to the Voltage Divider Card
are securely terminated. Pull on wires to
make sure crimped connections are secure.
•
Replace Voltage Divider Card
•
Replace Torch Height Controller
2
Waviness in plasma cut
edge
•
Make sure all table slats do not have play.
Slats should be curved to make sure that
tension keeps them from vibrating.
•
Verify that torch height control settings are
set to original factory defaults. Refer to the
MAINTENANCE section of the manual for
default settings
3
Machine runs a short time
and stops with an Air Fault
•
Check incoming air pressure at the regulator
and make sure the regulator is set to 4.5 bar.
4
Screen is on, but nothing
else works
•
Check all Emergency Stop buttons. If one is
pressed, then release it, turn power off to the
control, and then turn power on again.
5
Arc turns off after cutting for
a few seconds
•
Check that the ground clamp is connected
properly to the machine. Clamp must be
connected to bare metal, not on a painted
surface.
6
Arc tries to start too high off
the material
•
Check value for COMPENSATE on the Arc
Voltage Control. Value should be set to 10
•
Change Initial Height setting on Arc Voltage
Control. Refer to the Plasma System manual
for correct setting. Refer to the
MAINTENANCE section of the manual for
changing the setting on the Arc Voltage
Control. NOTE: Value is in MM
7
Machine moves before arc
initiates
•
Change PIERCE DELAY setting in
SETTINGS / PLAS [F4]. Value should be a
minimum of 1.100
8
When pushing Zero Test on
the Arc Voltage Control, the
torch does not touch the
material before it retracts
•
Check to make sure that the torch cable has
enough play for the torch to reach the
material, and that nothing is obstructing it.
