What to do if the Mold-Masters M2 Controller displays a FUSE error?
If the Mold-Masters Controller displays a FUSE error, it means the fuse for that zone has failed due to an external fault. Identify and fix the fault before replacing the fuse with one of the same rating and type, such as a High Rupture Current load fuse. The blown fuse is located either on the control card or on the off-board triac module, if fitted.
What does ERR! mean on my Mold-Masters M2 Controller and what to do?
The ERR! message on your Mold-Masters Controller indicates little or no temperature rise has been detected in that zone. This can happen if the thermocouple wiring is reversed, or if the heater wiring is faulty, or the element is open circuit. Check the thermocouple and heater wiring.
What does T/C mean on my Mold-Masters M2 and what to do?
The T/C error on your Mold-Masters Controller means an open circuit thermocouple has been detected, and no auto-response has been selected in the T/C Open Error column of the Setup page. For immediate recovery, you can either slave that control zone to an adjacent zone or change to open loop control.
What does GND mean on my Mold-Masters M2 Controller and how to fix it?
The GND error on your Mold-Masters Controller indicates the system has detected a ground fault. Check your heater wiring for a low impedance path to ground.
How to troubleshoot the AMPS error on Mold-Masters M2?
The AMPS error on the Mold-Masters Controller means it cannot supply the requested current, especially if the zone is set as a Spear type. Isolate the system supply, check the loom and heater wiring continuity. Also, check the heater resistance against other known good zones to see that it is not noticeably higher than average.
What does LOAD mean on my Mold-Masters M2 and what to do?
The LOAD error on your Mold-Masters Controller indicates no load on that zone, which only occurs in manual closed loop mode where the current is preset. Isolate the system supply and check the connections between the controller and the tool heaters. Also, check the heater for continuity.
What does LINE mean on my Mold-Masters M2 Controller and how to fix it?
The LINE error on your Mold-Masters Controller indicates no mains supply synchronization pulses are being received. The three-phase supply is used in a cross-over detection circuit to generate timing pulses for accurate phase control and firing the triac. Switch off and isolate the controller, then check the supply wiring for the presence of all three phases.
What does REV mean on my Mold-Masters M2?
The REV alarm on the Mold-Masters Controller means that the card has detected an abnormal input at the T/C termination that indicates a shorted or reversed thermocouple. If the REV alarm persists then you should switch off the controller and investigate the offending zone.
What to do if my Mold-Masters M2 Controller shows a HELP error?
The HELP error on your Mold-Masters Controller indicates a system failure that the console doesn't know how to respond to. This may occur if an older model console is connected to a later version cabinet. Please make a note of the serial numbers for both the controller and console. Also note the console software date on the Utilities page. Contact your supplier with this information to hand.
What does OVER mean on my Mold-Masters Controller and how to solve it?
The OVER error on your Mold-Masters Controller means the RTD zone has detected a temperature in excess of 99°C. This is an abnormal alarm because RTD circuits can only read from 0-99 deg, so a fault must be suspected and investigated. Check that a different RTD has not been fitted.
