OSCILLATOR CONTROL ERROR CODES
Error codes are displayed on the LCD screen accompanied with the warning buzzer and
flashing red L.E.D. on the Remote Pendant.
ER.41 (Running condition problem)
During normal operation of the linear oscillator if the control encounters an issue with controlling
the linear slide the control will display ER.41.
ER.42: (linear oscillator limit switches)
When the Oscillator Control is programmed to operate a Linear Oscillator Head (preferred
units of measurement are either Inches or CM), the control monitors limit switches located
within the Oscillator Head to prevent over-travel. If either, or both, of these limit switches are
open circuit, the control will display ER.42 and not permit normal operation. This situation
could include the following possibilities:
 Manually jogging the slide too far. To reset, manually jog the slide in the
opposite direction.
 The over-travel occurred during Oscillation. This could be due; to the oscillation
width being set too large for the stroke of the slide; the starting location of the
oscillator slide relative to the oscillation width and direction; or through making
center position adjustments (steering), resulting in slide over-travel. To reset,
make the necessary manual and/or programming adjustments and restart the
automatic cycle. It is recommended that the oscillator be set so that the
oscillation occurs in the centre of the slides stroke to permit center position
adjustments (steering) without activating the over-travel limit switches.
 Powering up the “PIPE KAT”
®
Carriage/Compact Oscillator without having a
Linear Head connected. To reset, either power down and attach a Linear
Oscillator Head or connect a Radial Oscillator Head and reprogram the Oscillator
Control accordingly.
o WARNING! Always turn the main power off before
connecting/disconnecting the oscillator head cable to/from the “PIPE KAT”
®
carriage. Failure to comply may result in control damage.
ER.43: (PWS main control inactivity)
During normal operation of the PIPE KAT
®
the main control communicates with the oscillator
control, if for any reason this communication stops ER.43 will be displayed on the control.
