Number

Message String

Cause

Remedy

13 "Missing

list

parameter"

One or more transient
list parameters
missing.

Check programmed lists.

14

"Voltage peak error "

Peak voltage exceeds
internal bus voltage

This error may occur when selecting
user defined wave shapes with higher
crest factors. Reduce programmed
RMS value.

15

"Slew time exceed
dwell"

Time needed to slew
to final value is less
than dwell time.

Check dwell times in transient list
settings. Increase dwell time or
change slew rate for affected
parameter.

16 "Illegal

during

transient"

Operation requested
not available while
transient is running.

Wait till transient execution is
completed or abort transient
execution first.

17

"Output relay must be
closed"

Operation not
possible with open
relay

Close relay before attempting
operation. E.g. transient execution
requires output relay to be closed.

18

"Trans. duration less
then 1msec"

Dwell time below
minimum or 1 msec

Increase dwell time to at least 1
msec.

19

"Clock and sync must
be internal"

Operation not
possible with external
clock

Switch to internal sync. (Default)

20

"Input buffer full"

Too much data
received.

Break up data in smaller blocks.

21

"EOS Fault"

Hardware error
reported by EOS
option

Cycle power on EOS to reset error. If
error persist, contact Contact CI
service department at

[email protected]

for repair.

22 "Waveform

harmonics

limit"

Harmonic contents of
user defined wave
shape is too high and
could damage
amplifier output
stage.

Reduce harmonic content or reduce
fundamental frequency programmed.

23

"ALC or Impedance
must be off"

Conflict between ALC
and programmable
impedance mode.

Turn off ALC to use programmable
impedance. Turn off programmable
impedance to use ALC.

24

"Output relay must be
open”

Attempting to change
voltage range while
output relay is closed.

Open output relay first, then change
range. This ensures the load is
physically disconnected during
voltage range change.

25

“Over voltage prot trip

Over voltage
protection trip.

Output voltage exceeds voltage range
value. Check sense connections if
external sense mode is used.

26

“Peak curr prot trip”

Maximum available
peak current
capability of power
source exceeded.
Note: Firmware rev
4.52 or higher.

This error will trip if
PONS:CURR:PEAK:PROT status is
set to 1 and the peak current drawn
by the load exceeds the maximum
specified peak current capability for
more than 30 seconds. To avoid this
error, reduce the load on the power
source or upgrade to a larger power
configuration.
