5.3 MAJOR FAULTS
5.3.1 Laser Power Supply Alarm Display
(1) If an alarm is issued to indicate the occurrence of a power supply
fault, check the diagnosis screen to determine which power
supply unit issued that alarm signal. The bit corresponding to the
power supply unit that issued the alarm signal is set to 1.
Pressing the reset key or turning off the power clears the display.
DGN.974 #7 #6 #5 #4 #3 #2 #1 #0
Power supply No.8 No.7 No.6 No.5 No.4 No.3 No.2 No.1
(2) While the power to the oscillator is on, check the LEDs on the
power supply unit in which the alarm was issued. If the oscillator
is turned off after an alarm is issued, the LED indication
disappears.
(3) The following types of alarm turn on LEDs:
DCI1 : DC momentary overcurrent alarm
DCI2 : DC peak current alarm (DC power alarm)
DCI3 : DC steady current alarm
RFF : RFF alarm
VC : DC control power supply alarm
OH : Power supply overheat
RFV : RF overvoltage alarm
RFI : RF overcurrent alarm
(4) The following lists the conditions and causes of the alarms.

limit
Causes
DCI1 120A
DCI2 78.8A
DCI3
This alarm is issued if the DC current
of the power supply unit is high when
the oscillator is operating in CW/pulse
mode.
55A
Load short-circuit
Discharge tube
dielectric
breakdown
RFF
This alarm is issued if a load such as
a discharge tube is abnormal.
-
Short-circuit in
power supply load
and abnormal
discharge
VC
This alarm is issued if an overcurrent
or overvoltage occurs in the control
power supply of the power supply unit.
-
Abnormal control
circuit
OH
This alarm is issued if water is not
flowing through the cooling water heat
sink of the power supply unit.
60°C
Faulty chiller unit
Water path
clogging
RFV
This alarm is issued if a high voltage
is applied to the discharge tube when
the oscillator is operating in CW/pulse
mode.
