Manual 0-5303 OPERATION 4-17
4.11 CCM Status Codes
NOTE
See the Appendix for Advanced Troubleshooting
On start-up and during operation, the power supply control circuitry performs various tests. If the circuitry detects
a condition requiring operator attention, the status display on the front panel shows a 3 digit number code preceded
by either letter “E” (currently active fault) or letter “L” (last or latched fault) meaning a fault occurred during the
process but is not currently active.
Some conditions can be active indefinitely, while others are momentary. The power supply latches momentary
conditions; some momentary conditions can shut down the system. The indicator may show multiple conditions
in sequence; it is important to recognize all possible conditions that may be displayed.
NOTE
There are no Group 5 (500) numbered status codes with the GCM 2010 system. These tables cover units
up to 400A, Lower current units won’t have all the inverter sections referred to in the Group 2. However
codes for those sections should not appear.
