Detailed information
Upon detection of an error by the self-diagnostic function, the detailed information of the error cause is stored together with an
error code. The detailed information can be checked using the engineering tool. The following detailed information is added to
each error code. (Up to two types of information are stored together with an each error code. The types differ depending on
the error code.) Detailed information 1 and 2 for the latest error code can also be checked in the special register (SD). (
Page 668 List of Special Register Areas)
*1 The step number which is displayed in the error location information, is the one that is counted from the start of the file. It may differ from
the step number of the program which is displayed in error jump of the engineering tool.
*2 For details on error classifications and error codes, refer to the manual of each device connected. Furthermore, "0s" in the occurrence
date and time information, and in high-order digits are omitted. For example, if the occurrence time (hhmmss) is 09:10:05, the displayed
value will be 91005.
