Error Messages & Troubleshooting
5-3
High AC (HI AC) Detected
Any time the AC line rises above 120% of the
nominal line selected, the MPS turns off the front
panel circuit breaker and enters AC Loss Mode.
This halts excessive utility voltages to internal
circuitry. If this occurs on power up, the MPS turns
off the front panel circuit breaker and displays:
+0.001V
** HI AC LINE**
OUTPUTS: *
+1.999A
THE UNIT WILL BE TURNED
OFF TO AVOID DAMAGE.
VERIFY AC INPUT SETTING
HI AC INPUT
LINE FAULT:
Overtemperature Detected
If the MPS detects internal over temperature or
other internal fault, it activates the OVP circuit,
turns off the front panel circuit breaker, and then
turns itself off. OVP stays active until it completely
discharges the load. If the heat sink temperature
exceeds 95 °C (203 °F), the MPS displays:
+0.001V
** TEMP FAULT**
OUTPUTS: *
+1.999A
THE UNIT WILL BE TURNED
OFF TO AVOID DAMAGE.
INTERNAL TEMP TOO HI
INTERNAL
TEMP FAULT:
Rail Fault Detected
Excessive DC rail voltage (unable to return power
to the utility or some other internal fault), causes
the MPS to display:
+0.001V
** RAIL FAULT**
OUTPUTS: *
+1.999A
THE UNIT WILL BE TURNED
OFF TO AVOID DAMAGE.
DC RAIL VOLTAGE TOO HI
INTERNAL
RAIL FAULT:
PSH Current Not The Same As Saved Value
When the PSH is turned ON, the MPS checks the
present current setting against the current setting
stored when the PSH was turned OFF. If the two
do not match, the MPS sounds an alarm for about
½ second and displays:
CAUTION! SETTING NOT SAME AS SAVED VALUE
LAST PERSISTENCE CURRENT :
PRESENT SUPPLY CURRENT :
ENTER KEY TO CHANGE TO LAST PERSISTENCE
CURRENT, WAIT RUNUP DELAY, THEN TURN OFF.
¥ KEY TO TURN OFF AT PRESENT CURRENT.
Esc KEY TO ABORT.
HEATER CURRENT: 50 mA
10.000 A
5.000 A
Press the Data Entry up or down arrow to turn the
PSH ON. Press no key for approximately 30
seconds, or press Esc to keep the PSH OFF.
Output Inhibit
When the red Output Inhibit button is pressed, the
MPS displays:
+0.001V
**OUTPUT INH.**
OUTPUT INHIBIT:
THE OUTPUT CURRENT SET-
TING IS FORCED TO ZERO.
THE OUTPUT SETTINGS
CANNOT BE CHANGED UNTIL
OI IS RELEASED.

I STEP Limit Exceeded
When the user attempts to change the current setting
by more than the step limit setting, the MPS displays:
OUTPUT CURRENT WOULD BE SET TO MORE THAN
I STEP LIMIT PERMITTED IN 1 UPDATE.
THE CURRENT SETTING WILL NOT BE CHANGED.
I STEP LIMIT EXCEEDED
BY THIS SETTING
Caution – Persistence Is Off, Heater Is On
When the user attempts to start Automatic Mode with
persistence Off, the MPS displays:
THE PERSISTENCE IS OFF.
THE SWITCH HEATER IS ON.
CANNOT BEGIN WITH HEATER ON.
HIT THE Esc KEY TO ABORT.
CAUTION
Caution – Same Magnet Start and End Current
To enter an automatic PSH cycle, the magnet start and
end current must be different. If they are the same, the
MPS displays:
THE MAGNET START CURRENT AND THE MAGNET
END CURRENT ARE THE SAME. PRESS THE Esc
KEY TO ABORT, THE ENTER KEY TO CONTINUE.
CAUTION
Maximum Power Output Exceeded
When users utilize external current programming and
output power exceeds 1000 watts, the MPS displays:
+0.001V
**OVER POWER **
MAXIMUM POWER OUTPUT
EXCEEDED:
THE OUTPUT POWER IS
GREATER THAN PERMITTED.
SEE MANUAL FOR LIMIT.
THE OUTPUT CURRENT IS
FORCED TO ZERO AMPERE.
PRESS ¥ TO CLEAR ERROR.

Front panel settings are software limited to prevent
power over 1000 watts.
