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.

Remedy / Comments
Group 1 -- Plasma Process
101 Plasma Disabled
Plasma Enable Off ; Disable activated on GCM 2010 or external SW disabled
(CNC); CCM TB1-1&2 jumper missing; 40 circuit ribbon cable from Relay
PCB to CCM disconnected or defective;
102 Pilot Ignition Failure
Pilot did not start within 15 seconds. Torch consumable parts worn? Ensure
correct process selected or manual setting including current control setting
matches consumables; Plasma pressure too high; Defective Arc Starter;
Defective Pilot PCB; defective Inverter section 1A. Ribbon cables reversed on
INV1 sections 1A and 1B.
103 Lost Pilot
Pilot went out while Start active. Torch consumable parts worn? Ensure cut
process or current control setting setting matches consumables; Plasma
pressure too high;
104 Transfer Lost
Arc was transferred to work then went out while Start still active. Arc lost
contact with work (run off edge, over hole, etc.); Standoff too high; Ensure
cut process or manual settings (current control, gas pressures) matches
consumables;
105 Not used Reserved for legacy product
106 Pilot Timeout, no Transfer
Must transfer from Pilot to Cutting Arc in 0.085 seconds (SW8-1 OFF) or 3
sec. (SW8-1 ON). Standoff too high or void in work under torch; Wrong cut
process selected or wrong manual settings (current control set too low or
wrong gas pressure).
107 Not used Reserved for legacy product
108 Tip to Electrode voltage fault.
Tip voltage too close to electrode voltage; Torch consumable parts worn out;
Wrong consumables installed causing tip to electrode short; Wrong process
selected or wrong manual setting of plasma gas or cutting current.; Leak in
Plasma hose to torch; Defective Pilot PCB; Shorted torch body .
109 Part process not configured.
Applies only to DFC 3000 Auto Gas Control. Select and load a cutting pro-
cess.
