Error message

Error: 260118224 60-0403 mA out of range See Long Description for complete error Thu Jun 9 14:36:46 2005 260118224 orp orp_subsys gen_exec.c 2150 Host : Jedi Exception Class : Soft Severity : Pri/Soft File : gen_exec.c Line# : 2150 Function : No System Function Reported Scan Type : Helical Scan: 10105/2/5 (60-0403)mA out of range Measured mA every 50 msec exceeded 5 percent of mA demand.This error is logged, but does not stop the exposure. Z6,Z7= 0h,0h Note: MA Out Of Range (60-0403) error may be bogus depending on mA scanning mode. If this error occurs during a Helical AutomA scan, please ignore. Jedi Error # 260118224 (60-0403) “Measured mA every 50 msec exceeded 5 percent of mA demand” is an informational message intended to identify a possible mA stability issue. This error is logged but does not stop the exposure. If this error happens during a fixed mA scan it could indicate a problem and should be investigated further. But, if this error occurs during a helical with automA, this error should be ignored. In the automA mode, the mA is constantly changing and therefore this message does not indicate a real problem.

D3186T PERFORMIX ULTRA TUBE UNIT Used on LS2.X, 3.X, 4.X, 5.X HP60, Hispeed QXi, DLS with H2 Gantry and DST with H2 Gantry. See Long Description for more info and Picture D3186T PERFORMIX ULTRA TUBE UNIT Used on LS2.X, 3.X, 4.X, 5.X HP60, Hispeed QXi, DLS with H2 Gantry and DST with H2 Gantry. Part #: D3186T Part Type: GP TUBES Part Weight: 184.31 LBR Repairable: No Returnable: Yes Hazardous Material: N Description: PERFORMIX ULTRA TUBE UNIT FRU: Yes Status: Orderable Comments: ** FE ASSIST ** The Shipping weight of this Tube is 336 lbs = 152 kilogram. For LightSpeed 2X/3X/4X and HP60. For CTi order D3132T and Lightspeed 1X order D3176T (212001261 5/3/07) *** SECOND OPINION NOTES *** Perform Rotor Control Diagnostics--If tube rotor fails to reach RUN mode in three ACCEL steps look for: High Drive output currents Low Drive output voltages and Low Drive output frequencies. This indicates a load problem with tube. With rotor running turn off Gantry 120V power at PDU. Listen for excessive noise and short deceleration time. A good rotor will coast for several minutes without power. Rotor issues (errors 183316, 183318, 183319, 260118111, 260118177) caused by tubes tend to be more prevalent on .5 second scans. If tube is installed on Jedi system, the Anode cable tends to break down (hard errors). Intermittent HV Spits -- Run KV Loop, 140KV, 30 sec, Anode, Cathode and both. Listen to tanks with stethoscope or screw driver, any noise indicates bad tank. Any spits? Remove HV cables from tanks fill with 2inch of oil. Spits = No, could be tube or cables. Spits = Yes, bad tank. D3186T PERFORMIX ULTRA TUBE UNIT Used on LS2.X, 3.X, 4.X, 5.X HP60, Hispeed QXi, DLS with H2 Gantry and DST with H2 Gantry.
