Preface

This manual is intended as a work of reference. It allows the operator at the machine tool:

- To correctly assess special situations when operating the machine.

- To ascertain the reaction of the system to the special situation.

- To utilize the possibilities for continued operation following the special situation.

- To follow references to other documentation containing further details.

Scope

This manual describes the alarms from the NC kernel (NC) area, PROFIBUS, the cycles and PLC. Further alarms from the area HMI (Human Machine Interface) can occur. These alarms are displayed on the operator panel in the form of self-explanatory text. They do not constitute part of this Diagnostics Guide. For special situations in conjunction with the integrated PLC, please refer to the SIMATIC S7-200 documentation.

Sorting

Safety

NC alarms

The alarms are sorted in ascending numerical order in the Diagnostics Guide. There are gaps in the sequence.

Danger

Please check the situation in the plant on the basis of the description of the active alarm(s). Eliminate the causes for the occurrence of the alarms and acknowledge in the manner indicated. Failure to observe this warning will place your machine, workpiece, stored settings and possibly even your own safety at risk.

Buffered memory was restored from backup copy (potential loss of data!)

A possible inconsistency was detected in the buffered memory during power-up.

The buffered memory was initialized with the last backup copy. Changes in the buffered memory, which have been made since the last backup copy update, have been lost. The reason for this procedure is that the backup time is exceeded. Make sure that the required operating time of the control corresponds to the specifications in your Installation & Start-Up Guide.

The current backup copy of the buffered memory has been created by the last internal data backup carried out via the "Save data" softkey on the HMI.

Restart the control.

Scaling machine data modified

The control uses internal physical units (mm, degrees, s, for paths, velocities, acceleration, etc.). During programming or data storage, some of these values are input and output using different units (rev./min, m/s2, etc.).

The conversion is carried out using scaling factors which can be entered (system-specific MD array 10230 SCALING_FACTORS USER_DEF[n] (n ... Index number 0 - 10) when the relevant masking bit is set to "1".

If the masking bit is set to "0" then scaling takes place with the internal standard factors.

The following machine data influence the scaling of other MDs:

MD 10220 SCALING_USER_DEF_MASK

MD 10230 SCALING_FACTORS_USER_DEF

MD 10240 SCALING_SYSTEM_IS_METRIC

MD 10250 SCALING_VALUE_INCH

MD 30300 IS_ROT_AX

After these data are changed, the NC must be restarted. Only then will the input of dependent data be performed correctly.

Alarm display.

Please inform the authorized personnel/service department. If the alarm has been displayed after downloading an MD file which is consistent within itself, then the download operation must be repeated with a new NC power-up. (The file contains scaling-dependent machine data in front of the scaling factors).

New value %1 of MD %2 not set. Requested %3 bytes too much %4 memory.

%1 = New value of machine data %2 = Machine data number %3 = Number of bytes to many requested %4 = Type of memory

An attempt was made to enter a new value in the specified memory configuration machine data.

The change is not made, since it would result in the user memory being deleted. This is because the memory requested exceeded the available capacity.

The third parameter specifies the number of bytes by which the maximum user memory was exceeded.

The fourth parameter specifies the type of memory whose limit was exceeded.

"D" stands for dynamic or non-buffered user memory (this is where the LUD variables are stored and the interpolation buffer size is entered, for example). The capacity of this memory type is defined by the current memory expansion and the value in MD18210 MM_USER_MEM_DYNAMIC.

"S" stands for static or buffered user memory (typically the part programs but also compensation data, R parameters and tool data). The capacity of this memory type is defined by the current memory expansion and the value in MD 18230 MM_USER_MEM_BUFFERED.

Alarm display.

If the modification was unintentional, simply continue.

The alarm has no negative effects.

The remedy depends on the access authorization and the current memory expansion of the NC.

The intended change is mot possible -> try again with a lower value. Observe how the value of the byte number changes.

Buy more memory? This option depends on the particular model used.

The NC user memory setting may be smaller than possible. The MDs (see above) can be altered using the relevant access authorization.

Memory reorganized using standard machine data

The memory management was not able to allocate the NC user memory with the values in the machine data. Because the total memory is available as dynamic or static memory for the NC user (e.g. for: the number of tool offsets, the number of directories and files, etc.) and is therefore not sufficient.

Alarm display. Interface signals are set. NC Start disable. NC Stop on alarm.

Redefine the NC memory structure!

A specific MD for NC user memory allocation cannot be given as the cause of the alarm. Therefore, the MD initiating the alarm must be determined on the basis of the default values in the machine data by changing the user-specific memory structure step by step.

Usually, not just one MD has been chosen too large and therefore it is advisable to reduce the memory area by a certain proportion in several MDs.

Clear the alarm with the RESET key. Restart part program.

Channel %1 data block %2 not or not completely created, error code %3

%1 = channel number %2 = string (module name) %3 = internal error ID

Data management has detected an error in power-up. The specified data block may not have been created. The error number specifies the type of error. If the error number >100000, then there is a fatal system error. Otherwise, the user memory area was made too small. In this case the (user) error codes have the following meaning:

Error number Explanation 1 No memory space available 2 Maximum number of possible symbols exceeded 3 Index 1 lies outside valid range of values 4 Name in channel already exists 5 Name in NC already exists

If the alarm occurs after cycle programs, macro definitions or definitions for global user data (GUD) have been introduced, the machine data for the NC user memory configuration have been incorrectly configured. In all other cases, modifications to machine data that are already correct produce errors in the user memory configuration.

The following block names (2nd parameter) are known in the NC (all system and user data blocks; in general, only problems in the user data blocks can be remedied by user intervention)

The alarm can only occur after a 'cold start' (=NCK start-up with standard machine data). The alarm is only a notice. There is no interference with any NCK functions. It shows that the NCK has less free user memory available than specified by Siemens for this control variant. The value of the actually available free user memory can also be taken from the machine data 18050 INFO_FREE_MEM_DYNAMIC, 18060 INFO_FREE_MEMS_STATIC.

Siemens supplies NCK with default settings that, depending on the model, have certain (free) memory space available for the specific settings of the actual applications. The original factory setting of NCK systems is thus that the alarm does not occur with a cold start.

Alarm display.

The cause of this message may be that the NCK is running on hardware that is not intended for this NCK version (i.e. it has insufficient memory).

If the application runs properly with the remaining free user memory (i.e. can be started up without any errors), the message can simply be ignored.

Workpiece counter: Table of monitored cutting edges overflowed

No further entry of cutting edges possible in the workpiece counter table. As many cutting edges can be noted for the workpiece counter as are possible in total in the NCK. This means that if for each tool each cutting edge is used precisely once for a workpiece then the limit is reached. If several workpieces are made on several tool holders/spindles simultaneously, it is possible to note MD18100 MM_NUM_CUTTING_EDGES_IN_TOA cutting edges for the workpiece counter for all of the workpieces. If this alarm occurs, it means that cutting edges used subsequently are no longer quantity monitored until the table has been emptied again, e.g. by means of the NC language command SETPIECE or by the relevant job from MMC, PLC (PI service).

Alarm display. Interface signals are set. NC Start disable.

- Have you forgotten to decrement the workpiece counter?

Then program SETPIECE in the part program or in the PLC program, insert the command correctly.

- If the part program or the PLC is correct, then more memory should be set for

When machining the inside of an ellipse, in parts of the ellipse the curvature radii are greater than or smaller than the cutter radius compensation.

In ellipses, in this case the block would be split up into 4 subblocks with curvature radii that are greater than and less than the compensation radius. Over several revolutions, there would be a tremendous increase in the amount of calculation required by the unlimited number of resulting subblocks, and therefore this situation is rejected by the error message.

If compensation is possible everywhere or nowhere on the ellipse, then ellipses are also permissible that cover more than one full revolution.

With an active transformation or a frame with a rotation component the geometry axes are needed for block preparation. If a geometry axis has previously been traversed as positioning axis, it retains its status of "positioning axis" until it is again programmed as a geometry axis.

Because of the POSA motion beyond block boundaries, it is not possible to identify in the preprocessing run whether the axis has already reached its target position when the block is executed. This is, however, an unconditional requirement for calculating the ROT component of the frame or of the transformation.

No action is usually necessary. The velocity control operates more effectively, however, if the part program is modified.

• If a transformation pole is circumnavigated several times by the curve, it helps

to split up the block into smaller parts.

• If a positioning axis is the cause, you should check whether the axis can be

traversed as a path axis. The LookAhead function remains deactivated until preprocessing can be based on defined conditions again (e.g. as a result of change from JOG->AUTO, tool or tool edge change).

Movement not possible while transformation active - in channel %1, block %2

The machine kinematics does not allow the specified motion. Transformationdependent causes could be: TRANSMIT: A (circular) area exists around the pole, where positioning is not possible. The area is caused by the fact that the tool reference point cannot be traversed as far as into the pole.

The area is defined by:

- The machine data ($MC_TRANSMIT_BASE_TOOL..)

- The active tool length compensation (see $TC_DP..).

- Incorporation of the tool length compensation depends on the selected working plane (see G17,..).

Channel %1 block %2 parameter %3 is no variable

%1 = Channel number %2 = Block number, label %3 = Source string

A constant or the result of a mathematical expression has been assigned to a REF parameter instead of a variable at the time of the subroutine call, even though only variable identifiers are allowed.

Examples: N10 XYZ (NAME_1, 10, OTTO) or N10 XYZ (NAME_1, 5 + ANNA, OTTO)

Alarm display Interface signals are set Correction block.

Press the NC Stop key and select the function "Correction block" with the softkey PROGRAM CORRECT. The correction pointer positions on the incorrect block.

Channel %1 block %2 type of parameter %3 incorrect

%1 = Channel number %2 = Block number, label %3 = Source string

When calling a procedure (a subroutine) it is found that the type of the actual parameter cannot be converted into the type of the formal parameter. There are two possible cases:

• Call-by-reference parameter: Actual parameter and formal parameter

must be of precisely the same type, e.g. STRING, STRING.

• Call-by-value parameter: The actual parameter and the formal parameter

could in principle be different if a conversion would always be possible. In the present case, however, the types are generally not compatible, e.g.

STRING → REAL.

Channel %1 block %2 parameter %3 no longer possible

%1 = Channel number %2 = Block number, label %3 = Source string

An attempt has been made to transfer actual parameters although axis parameters located before them have not been assigned. For procedure or function calls, assignment of parameters that are no longer required can be omitted, if subsequently no further parameters are to be transferred. Example: N10 FGROUP(X, Y, Z, A, B) ; max. 8 axes possible The following call-by-value parameters would then be initialized with zero because the space-dependent assignment has been lost on account of the omitted axis parameters. Axes that can be omitted and following parameters do not occur in the predefined procedures and functions.

In the 2nd row, the 4th element is also addressed with the index [1,3] (the indices start at zero).

• Array definition: Check the array size. The 1st number indicates the

number of elements in the 1st dimension (number of rows), the 2nd number indicates the number of elements in the 2nd dimension (number of columns).
