DirtRoads Posted November 20, 2015 Report Share Posted November 20, 2015 I can't find this error code in the trouble shooting guide or on the Paragon website. I got this error last week after getting a FTH error. Noticed a burnt spot on plug in. Changed receptacle. Checked elements and ends/connectors were so brittle they broke. Replaced all 4 elements. All elements were working. Got to about 480 degrees and got the "Alarm" error code again. Checked voltage and its 245 to 260. I'm thinking I should probably change the plug but this looks like so much trouble. It's a Paragon TNF 27-3 ... 2.5 years old. Used only to fire 05 bisque. Any ideas as to what the "Alarm" error code is? Sharon Grimes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joseph Fireborn Posted November 20, 2015 Report Share Posted November 20, 2015 ALAR Alarm 6, 10, 13 - 15, 20, 22 ALAR appears either when you are entering an alarm temperature or when the alarm is sounding during a firing. To stop an alarm, press any key except STOP. If the alarm goes off when you first begin firing, it is because it was set for a lower temperature than the present temperature. http://www.paragonweb.com/files/manuals/acf13.pdf Page 24. Sounds like an alarm was set or something went wacky in the programming, and your hitting stop to turn it off, instead of any other key? I could be wrong but seems like everything is working fine. It says a firing will continue with the Alarm message going on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DirtRoads Posted November 20, 2015 Author Report Share Posted November 20, 2015 Wow thanks. I checked and sure enough the alarm had somehow been set to 479 degrees instead of my usual 9999. I was only checking for error codes. I think this will fix it. I'll run it tomorrow. I turned on one of my L&L's after I saw this. I generally only run one kiln even though I have 200 amps available. Thanks for finding and reading what I SHOULD have been able to find Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
