Reaction of
control and
machine
Display only
A message (info, warning, error) is only displayed.
The machine does not react; programs are not stopped.
The error message can be acknowledged anytime.
Feed stop
The feed-rate enable is reset. The "F" symbol for the feed rate is highlighted.
The axes are braked at the nominal value characteristic.
I.e., the contour of the workpiece is usually not damaged.
Once the error message has been acknowledged, the machine continues to operate at the set feed
rate.
NC Stop
The running NC program is stopped. The control-in-operation symbol (STIB) flashes.
The axes are braked at the nominal value characteristic.
I.e., the contour of the workpiece is usually not damaged.
After the error message has been acknowledged, the NC program can be restarted at the position
where it was interrupted (NC START key).
Program cancelation
The running NC program is canceled (internal stop).
The axes are braked at the nominal value characteristic.
I.e., the contour of the workpiece is usually not damaged.
After the error message has been acknowledged, the NC program needs to be restarted
(GOTO 0, NC START).
EMERGENCY STOP
An EMERGENCY STOP is triggered at the machine.
Axes and spindles decelerate at the current limit; the machine must be brought to a standstill as
quickly as possible.
The contour of the workpiece is not taken into account and may be damaged.
After the error message was acknowledged, the machine must be switched on completely.
Now, the PLC program can be restarted (GOTO 0, NC START).
RESET
An EMERGENCY STOP is triggered at the machine.
Axes and spindles decelerate at the current limit; the machine must be brought to a standstill as
quickly as possible.
The contour of the workpiece is not taken into account and may be damaged.
The error message cannot be acknowledged. The control must be shut down and restarted.
Now, the PLC program can be restarted (GOTO 0, NC START).
Automatic
generation of
service files
In the event of serious NC software errors or especially defined PLC error messages, service files are
generated automatically.
See ”Creating and reading out service files” on page 7 – 75.
