Tfx Errorcode
[00606] Current range too great

Service Information On older heads, the difference between the current of the lowest diode and the highest diode can not be greater than 1 amp. You get this error if you try to set diode currents which have a lowest-to-highest range of more than 1 amp.

Note this error also applies if you try to set power. The head converts the power values to current values, and the range of these current values may be too great.

If this error occurs during a plot, look at the stroke powers in the current media. Switch the current media, and use the command "ld stroke" to manually load the powers the head would use for plotting; this will tell you which diode(s) are causing the problem.

Operator Action Alter the current levels (or power levels) you are trying to set the diodes at.

Causes
  • The difference between the current of the lowest diode and highest diode is greater than 1 amp.
