308 Mismatch between the CCM and gas control type.
The Auto-Cut XT CCM is designed to work with the GCM 1000 (AC 300 XT) or the built in gas control of the
AC 200 XT. Attempting to use a GCM 2010 or DFC 3000 Auto Gas Control on an Auto-Cut will result in a 308
code. Similarly attempting to use a CCM from an Auto-Cut XT in an Ultra-Cut XT supply will also result in
a 308 code.
