9.1 KUKA.HMI error messages
Bus error and periphery fault messages are implemented as “status messag-
es” in the KUKA.HMI. In this way, messages are withdrawn by the driver when 
the faults have been eliminated or a different error message is present. Error 
codes and additional information generated with the messages come from the 
firmware.
%1, %2 and %3 are individual variables of the error messages. %1 is always 
the instance name of the driver.
Further information about the meaning of these codes can be found 
in chapter 5.2 of the Phoenix Contact documentation “Interbus User 
Manual – Firmware Services and Error Messages – IBS SYS FW G4 
UM”.
In the case of an error, the Interbus driver signals the error to the ap-
plication in accordance with the settings in the file IBSPCI.XML. It 
now depends on the application how it reacts to the error, e.g. the KU-
KA.HMI can generate a read/write error and interrupt the execution of KRL 
programs.
Message Reason Effect Remedy
%1 Bus error %2 seg-
ment %3
Bus error with specifi-
cation of the device in 
which the error was 
localized. The error 
code (%2) is saved by 
the firmware.
Further information 
can be found in the 
Phoenix Contact doc-
umentation.
No input and outputs 
data are exchanged 
with the controller 
board.
Eliminate bus error 
and restart the driver.
%1 user error: %2 
additional info: %3
An operator error has 
been made by the 
user, e.g. incorrect 
parameter when call-
ing a firmware ser-
vice. The error code 
(%2) is saved by the 
firmware.
Further information 
can be found in the 
Phoenix Contact doc-
umentation.
The effect depends 
on the specific error.
Further information 
can be found in the 
description of the 
error code. 
Information about 
remedial action can 
be found in the 
description of the 
error code.
%1 System error: %2 
additional info: %3
A system error has 
occurred, probably in 
the hardware. The 
error code (%2) is 
saved by the firm-
ware.
Further information 
can be found in the 
Phoenix Contact doc-
umentation.
No input and outputs 
data are exchanged 
with the controller 
board.
Information about 
remedial action can 
be found in the 
description of the 
error code.
It may be necessary 
to exchange the con-
troller board.
