Error listing EP

If any malfunctions occur, and in the case of incorrect

programming or operation of the machine, specific num-

bers indicating the cause are displayed after the word

ERROR.

If the displayed errors cannot be rectified by correct

operation or programming, an electrician or electronics

expert must be consulted; this applies on principle to

all errors marked with (E).

These error numbers consist of four digit's, the first

digit indicating whether the error concerns both machine

units or only the right-hand or the left-hand one. The

meanings are as follows:

OXXX Error applies to both machine units

1XXX Error applies to left-hand machine unit (I)

2XXX Error applies to right-hand machine unit (II)

The next three digits of the error number have the

following meanings?

001(E) Main drive not ready for operation

002 (E) No field excitation in main drive motor

003 Hydraulic system switched off

004 (E) Control voltage missing

005 Key-operated switch has been incorrectly

actuated

adequate precision in Precision Stop G09

"9999"

When "Error 9 9 9 9 " is displayed on the screen, the

machine must not be re-started after the error has

been cleared.

The program memory must be cleared (by a metric -

inch - metric s w i t c h o v e r ) . The program can then be

re-started.

Possible causes of the error message

Program error read in via tape

e.g. in block N10 G61 E01 N 8 0 , the word G61 is missing

The feed holes are missing on the tape for reading

in between the end of the program and the start of

the parameter

In the Editor mode of o p e r a t i o n , program parts are

being cleared, re-entered or modified at the con-

trol with the program memory almost completely f u l l .
