This message is generated when the HMI does not have communications to the controller inside the panel. Possible reasons for this include:
Loss of 24VDC power to terminals 1 (-) and 2 (+) on the controller.
A bad communication cable between the HMI and the controller.
(Check by ringing out the cable end to end, or checking for continuity.)
Bad connection between the HMI and the controller.
(Check both ends to make sure they are securely connected and not loose or damaged.)
Cable connected to wrong port on back of HMI.
(COM1=232 and COM3=485)
See our Schematics and Drawings Page for wiring info.

SOAK is simply a specified amount of time. There are no conditions required for the timer to count down.
G_SOAK is also a soak timer, but it will only run when pre-set conditions are met and maintained. If conditions are not met, the timer is placed in hold status.
See our Schematics and Drawings Page for wiring info.
Navigate to “Slave Instrument Setup” (This may involve logging in).
Select an instrument you want to configure and tap “Edit.” Note that the list of available instruments is color coded:
Blue=atmosphere
Red=temperature
Yellow=events
White=user-selected instrument
Configure the instrument, address, and port. Note the following:
All devices on the same slave port must utilize the same protocol.
An address of zero (0) will disable the instrument.
Controllers that provide dual functions must have the same address assigned for both.
If your instrument is not shown in the list, use User Instruments 1-16 along with the Generic Instrument Setup menu (see manual for additional details).
Slave 1 = terminals 5 (-) and 6 (+)
Slave 2 = terminals 22 (+) and 23 (-)
RS-232 = 9-pin port on controller’s face

SSi recommends 1.5 scfh. However, anywhere from 1 – 2 scfh is acceptable.
The bowl filter leading into the unit contains a filter element (p/n 37051) that can be replaced when it becomes dirty.
These are factors that go into the calculation for determining the %Carbon. Manually adjusting them will have a direct effect on the %Carbon being calculated. Contact SSi for more information.
For RS485 Communications:
- Wire to the terminals 1561 and 1571 inside the MGA.
- On the MGA screen interface, go to the Menu and log in with the number 2.
- Select “Communications and source setup” > “Atmosphere/Temp sources”
- Here you can edit to add your Probe Temp/mV Instrument or Furnace temp Instrument.
- When you have selected the appropriate device, edit the Probe Temp/mV instrument address or the Furnace temp instrument address.
To set the Device time to match the Touch screen date and time:
- Go to Menu and log in with the number 2.
- Then select “Instrument set up” > “General set up.”
- Edit the Device time to match the touch screen time by selecting “Device Time” > “Edit.”
- Call SSi at 513-772-0060 for a Code of the Day login number.
- Log in with the code.
- Select the “Factory use only” option.
- On the following screen select “Set Instrument Type.”
- Set the Nitrider Calculations option to Enable.
- You will then need to cycle power to have the correct Calculations page displayed.
The MGA displays a calculated dew point using gas values and requires assumptions regarding the composition of the gas being sampled. Since these assumptions are not always accurate, the resulting dew point is not always accurate.
- First, make sure you have the Zero and Span gas tanks hooked up to the correct calibration ports on the side of the MGA.
- On the Interface go to Menu and log in with the number 2.
- Select “Automatic Calibration setup.” You will see the options to set the Auto calibration to YES or NO.
- Select “YES” to set up your desired calibration purge and intervals.
SSi recommends that the MGA be mounted fairly close to the source it is sampling. It can be further away, but a longer sample tube increases the likelihood of leaks or contaminants.
The incoming pressurized gas goes through a small fixed orifice inside the analyzer, which should require between 20 and 50 psi to maintain proper flow.
- Go to the Menu and log in with the number 2.
- Select “Automatic Calibration set up” then change the Auto Calibration from YES to NO. That will clear the Auto Calibration alarm banner.
**It is important to note WHY you were getting the alarm, to make sure that you were getting adequate flow and the calibration was able to complete successfully.

- Launch TSManager (default location is C:\SSi\TSManager\TSManager.exe)
- From the toolbar, select Tools > Communications > Setup
- Select “Add” and enter an appropriate name
- Click “…” to search for available touch screens
NOTE: An IP Address is only required if the Touch Screen is connected to the facility network. This allows data to be automatically downloaded, simplifying the viewing process. If you intend to manually download data, simply select SAVE and OK. - Select one of the available touch screens and click “OK”
NOTE: If the list does not automatically populate, use the drop-down list to select different networks to scan. If you know the IP address, you may also enter it manually at lower left and select “Scan.” - Click “Save” and then “OK”
NOTE: This procedure is only necessary if the touch screen is NOT on the same network as the PC running TSManager. If the PC and the screen are on the same network, data can be downloaded through TSManager directly.
<class=””>
<class=””>
First, collect data from the touch screen as follows:</class=””></class=””>
- Insert a USB drive into one of the ports on the rear of the touch screen.
- Go to the menu list and select “Shutdown.”
- Select “Yes” to confirm. This will bring up the Windows CE interface.
- Double-tap “My Device.”
- Look for “Storage Card.” If that is not available, look for “HardDisk.” Double-tap it to open.
- Highlight the subfolder that matches your device name (e.g. DW9130)

- Remove the USB Drive from the touch screen.
<class=””>
Then, transfer the information to your PC as follows:</class=””>
-
- Insert the USB drive into your PC.
- Copy the folder to C:\SSi\TSManager\TSScreens\ (if your TSManager software is installed on a different location, use that location and drive letter).
- Rename the pasted folder to a name that matches the name of the equipment used in TSManager.
- Launch TSManager (typically at C:\SSi\TSManager\TSManager.exe).
NOTE: If this is the first time you are viewing this data from TSManager, you must first add the Equipment (refer to FAQ item Q33). When creating the Equipment, add only the Name; leave the Model as “Not Specified.” - From the menu bar, select Tools > Communications > Advanced Download & Maintenance.
- Use the first drop-down to select your Equipment. Use the second drop-down to select Disk Source. Then click the ”…” icon to navigate to the file path where you just saved the data from the touchscreen.
- The content area of the window should now automatically populate. Select “Download” to transfer the data into TSManager, and select “Done” when finished.
NOTE: You may need to close and reopen TSManager to view the new data.
NOTE: If this is the first time viewing this data in TSManager, you may have to click File > Open in the menu bar to select the appropriate trend chart.
