Error codes
In error situations, the control panel displays the number and title of the error. The X5 Wire Feeder 300 AP/APC control panel also shows the possible cause and a proposed action to fix the issue.
Error | |||
---|---|---|---|
Code | Title | Possible cause | Proposed action |
1 | Power source not calibrated | Power source calibration has been lost. | Restart the power source. If problem persists, contact Kemppi service. |
2 | Too low mains voltage | Voltage in mains network is too low. | Restart the power source. If problem persists, contact Kemppi service. |
3 | Too high mains voltage | Voltage in mains network is too high. | Restart the power source. If problem persists, contact Kemppi service. |
4 | Power source is overheated | Too long welding session with high power. | Do not shut down, let the fans cool the machine. If fans are not running, contact Kemppi service |
5 | Internal 24V voltage is too low | Power source contains an inoperative 24V power supply unit . | Restart the power source. If problem persists, contact Kemppi service. |
7 | Wire feeder not found | Wire feeder is not connected to power source or connection is faulty. | Check the control cable and its connectors. |
8 | Initialization error in FPGA card | Control card is faulty or software fails in power source. | Restart the power source. If problem persists, contact Kemppi service. |
9 | Measurement cable failure | Voltage sensing cable is not connected to the work piece or measurement cable connection is faulty. | Connect voltage sensing cable to the work piece and check the measurement cable and its connectors. |
11 | FET unit failure | Power source contains an inoperative FET unit. | Restart the power source. If problem persists, contact Kemppi service. |
12 | Welding cable failure | Plus and minus cables are connected together. | Check the connections of welding cable and earth return cable. |
13 | IGBT overcurrent | Inoperative mains transformer in power source. | Restart the power source. If problem persists, contact Kemppi service. |
14 | IGBT overheated | Too long welding session with high power or high ambient temperature. | Do not shut down, let the fans cool the machine. If fans are not running, contact Kemppi service. |
17 | Phase is missing from mains supply | One or more phases are missing from the mains supply. | Check the mains cable and its connectors. Check the voltage of mains supply. |
20 | Power source cooling failure | Cooling capacity is reduced in the power source. | Clean the filters and clear any dirt from the cooling channel. Check that the cooling fans are running. If not, contact Kemppi service. |
24 | Cooling liquid overheated | Too long welding session with high power or high ambient temperature. | Do not turn off the cooler. Let the liquid circulate until the fans cool it down. If fans are not running, contact Kemppi service. |
26 | Cooling liquid not circulating | No cooling liquid or circulation is blocked. | Check the liquid level in the cooler. Check hoses and connectors for blockage. |
27 | Cooler not found | Cooling is turned on in the settings menu, but cooler is not connected to power source or cabling is faulty. | Check the cooler connections. Ensure that the cooling is turned off in the settings menu, if the cooler is not in use. |
33 | Welding cable calibration failure | Welding cable calibration failed. | Check the welding system cables and their connections. |
40 | VRD error | Open circuit voltage exceeds the VRD limit. | Restart the power source. If problem persists, contact Kemppi service. |
42 | High current in wire feeder motor | There may be too much pressure in the wire feed rolls or dirt in the wire line. | Adjust the feed roll pressure. Clean the wire line. Change worn parts in the welding gun. |
43 | Overcurrent in wire feeder motor | There may be too much pressure in the wire feed rolls or dirt in the wire line. | Adjust the feed roll pressure. Clean the wire line. Change worn parts in the welding gun. |
44 | Wire speed measurement is missing | Faulty sensor or wiring in wire feeder. | Restart the welding system. If problem persists, contact Kemppi service. |
50 | License error | License for the selected feature is missing. | To continue using the feature, please install the license. |
61 | Operation not allowed | Subfeeder is connected, but it has not been selected in the system settings. | Go to the system settings menu on the control panel and select your subfeeder model and type. |
62 | Power source not found | No power source is connected to the wire feeder, or connection is faulty. | Check the control cable and its connectors. |
64 | Robot control device lost | Wire feeder lost connection to the robot control device. | Check the robot control device and interconnection cables. If problem persists, contact Kemppi service. |
65 | Subfeeder not allowed | Use of subfeeder is not allowed with selected welding process. | Remove the subfeeder or change the welding process. |
81 | Welding program data missing | Welding program data has been lost. | Restart the power source. If problem persists, contact Kemppi service. |
103 | Empty memory channel | Robot tried to start welding using a nonexistent memory channel. | Check the memory channel selected by the robot. |
132 | Robot not responding | There is a communication problem between robot and the RCM. | Check fieldbus cabling, connectors and the fieldbus module. |
238 | Power source serial number is missing | Communication to serial number card failed. | Restart welding system. If problem persists, contact Kemppi service. |
244 | Internal memory failure | Initialization failed (%sub:%device). | Restart welding system. If problem persists, contact Kemppi service. |
245 | Demo time left: %min min | When the demo time expires, the features without a license cannot be used anymore. | To continue using the optional features, you must buy licenses for them. |
246 | Demo time has expired | Features without a license cannot be used anymore. | To continue using the optional features, you must buy licenses for them. |
