Error and Status Indicators
Through the software interface to the measuring software, the FaroArm
generates and displays errors.
• The encoder end stop warnings - when an encoder reaches one
end of it’s rotation.
• The tube Stress Stop warnings - when there is stress on one of
the tubes or encoder joints. The Stress Stop warnings may be
disabled. See “Hardware Configuration” on page 30.
• Other errors are displayed in a message box.
N
OTE: The FaroArm does not output data until the error has been
cleared.
