- Sensors or cables defective
Fix :
- Press the key
Reason :
- TTxxx battery voltage to low
Fix :
- change battery
Reason :
- The EMERGENCY STOP test of the equipment needs to be repeated.
- No new NC program can be started.(NC start lock)
- A brake test is performed together with the EMERGENCY STOP test.
Fix :
- After the main switch was switched off, an EMERGENCY STOP test is always run.
- The test must be repeated after 168 hours; it starts automatically.
Prerequisites:
- Doors are closed
- No running NC program
- Axes and spindle are stopped
Reason :
- The switching off of the machine after the next END PGM block was activated via user parameters
Fix :
- Only note
Reason :
- The reference operating mode is necessary to carry out Function
Fix :
- Select the operating mode Reference via soft key
Reason :
- A mechanical hand wheel is latched while the concerned axis was in motion
Fix :
- Latch the hand wheel only when the axis is not in motion
Reason :
- Error occurred with temperature compensation by means of Pt100 sensors
Fix :
- Observe the information regarding the error reason in the small PLC window
Reason :
- Debug note for PLC programmers
- Files were pushed into the stack and were not pulled
Fix :
- Change the PLC program
Reason :
- With the first PLC scan or after changes the machine parameters are read in order to adapt the PLC functions
- Only after termination of this process can the machine be started
Fix :
- Only note
Reason :
- Program interruption caused by M00
- Press NC start to continue
Fix :
- Only note
Reason :
- Program interruption caused by M01
- Press NC start to continue
Fix :
- Only note
Reason :
- To move axes at machining feed rate, one of the mentioned M commands must be active
- M31 switches off the function temporarily until the next END PGM
- Function can be deselected permanently via MP
Fix :
- Press NC stop / TNC stop
- Correct the NC program
Reason :
- Program start with turned off feed rate potentiometer
Fix :
- Increase the feed rate on the feed-rate potentiometer
Reason :
- The machine parameter setting is not supported by the PLC program
Fix :
- Change the machine parameter
- Observe the information regarding the error reason in the small PLC window
Reason :
- The option "commissioning" has been set in the configuration of machine parameter/MP Config. Several monitoring functions are disabled.
Fix :
- When the machine is delivered (factory default setting) the option should be switched off after the commissioning has been completed.
