8.2.2
Changing the texts
The block with the texts consist of ordinary comment instructions, and may be
handled as any ordinary program (see the Programming Manual).
Changing when running Off Line
To change the text program, the off-line system must be able to handle the
instruction numbers since these numbers are used to locate the correct texts (see
the Error code table).
Changing via terminal connected to a printer
Load the block into the ordinary user memory and edit the comment instructions
via the terminal, if required. Note that the instruction numbers are used to locate
the correct texts (see the Error code table).
Minor changes via the programming unit
Load the block into the ordinary user memory and edit the comment instructions
via the terminal, if required. Characters A-Z may be used and no more than 24
characters may be entered.
Rules
• Division of words via the programming unit is done after the last space or
hyphen of the line or after the 37th position if none of the mentioned characters
can be found among the last ten characters of the line.
• An axis number is stated in the error code for some of the error messages, e.g,
506 SERVO ERROR 2 1403.
If the plain language text ends with AXIS #1, the axis number replaces the #1.
In case of resolver errors, the fine or coarse resolver is indicated by stating 1-12 for
the fine resolver and 13-24 for the coarse. If the plain language text ends with
AXIS #2, the axis number replaces the #2. After #2, an additional text FINE for 1-
12 and COARSE for 13-24 is shown.
Example:
506-1402 SERVO. JAM ERROR. AXIS 2
506-1215 SERVO. RESOLVER ERROR CHANNEL Y AXIS 3 COARSE
The additional texts FINE and COARSE are stored along with the rest of the plain
language texts with instruction numbers 5090 and 5091 respectively.
• Redundant text may be removed if the designated memory area is getting full.
Most of the text instructions 4130-4660 are identical to the original texts and
may thus be erased without any information loss.
Unless a Vision system is connected to the robot, instructions 300-490 and 6200-
6240 may also be erased.
Requirements
• All comment instructions must be gathered in one file.
• The memory may be compressed using the function button RESET under the
MANUAL menu.
• The program must not occupy more than 25% of the user memory area, i.e.
FREE MEMORY >75%.
• The comment instructions must be numbered according to the Error code table.
