2.6 Error messages and error handling
2.6.1 General Information
If error conditions are detected in the cycles, an alarm is generated and the execution of the
cycle is aborted.
Furthermore, the cycles display their messages in the message line of the control system.
These message will not interrupt the program execution.
The errors with their reactions and the messages in the message line of the control system
are described in conjunction with the individual cycles.
2.6.2 Error handling in the cycles
Alarms with numbers between 61000 and 62999 generated in the cycles. This range of
numbers, in turn, is divided again with regard to alarm responses and cancel criteria.
The error text that is displayed together with the alarm number gives you more detailed
information on the error cause.
Alarm number Clearing criterion Alarm Response
61000 ... 61999 NC_RESET Block preparation in the NC is
aborted
62000 ... 62999 Clear key The block preparation is
interrupted; the cycle can be
continued with <Cycle Start> on
the MCP after the alarm has
been cleared.
2.6.3 Overview of cycle alarms
The error numbers are classified as follows:
6 _ X _ _
● X=0 General cycle alarms
● X=1 Alarms generated by the drilling, drilling pattern and milling cycles
● X=6 Alarms generated by the turning cycles
