With sampled arc voltage
On, the sample arc voltage
from cut to cut was out
of the sample range. This
error can occur if the
sampled arc voltage on
the next cut is not within
a given range from the
sampled voltage of the
previous cut.
For instance, if the sample
voltage of the previous
cut was 120 VDC and the
sample voltage of the next
cut is 170 VDC, cutting
will stop and the error will
be posted.
The IHS at the next
pierce point could not be
performed accurately. This
can be due to:
Slag build-up on the
bottom of the shield.
Stall force is set too high
(Nozzle Contact is off).
The workpiece is lying
unevenly on the table.
The lifter is stalling before
reaching the plate.
Possible problem with
plasma system.
Damaged or the wrong
consumables in the torch.
The wrong consumables
are in the torch or the
plasma system is using the
wrong cutting process.
The consumables
were changed and the
consumable counter in the
ArcGlide was not reset.
Check whether the consumable life counter on the
ArcGlide was reset after changing the consumables.
Check the shield for slag build-up.
Perform an IHS test and confirm that the torch is
retracting to the transfer height accurately.
Check the consumables for damage and verify that
the cutting process is correct.
Verify that the plasma system does not have any gas
leaks or restrictions.
If the problem persists and cut quality is affected, shut
off sample arc voltage and determine if the cut quality
improves.
