6  "Limit memory lost"   Hardware configuration 
settings lost. 
Contact CI service department 
at 
service.ppd@ametek.com
 
to obtain instructions on 
restoring configuration data. 
7  "System memory lost"   Memory corrupted.  Recycle power. 
8  "Calibration memory 
lost"  
Calibration data lost.  Contact CI service department 
at 
service.ppd@ametek.com 
to obtain instructions on 
restoring calibration  data or 
recalibrate unit. 
9  "Start angle must be 
first sequence"  
Start phase angle in wrong 
place..  
Start phase angles can only 
programmed at the start of a 
transient list. Once a transient is 
in progress, phase angle cannot 
be changed. 
10  "Illegal for DC"   Operation not possible in 
DC mode. 
Switch to AC or AC+DC mode. 
11  "Duplicate sequence"   Transient list sequence 
number already used. 
User new or available sequence 
number instead. 
12  "Too many sequence"   Number of transient list 
steps exceeds maximum. 
Reduce the number of steps in 
the transient list. (Max = 32 for 
Series I or 100 for Series II). 
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. 
This option is not available 
on RS Series products. 
Cycle power on EOS to reset 
error. If error persists, contact 
CI service at 
service.ppd@ametek.com 
for 
repair.
