Description and steps to take 
E26 
User's ROM error  Stops  Probably a hardware problem. Please contact your dealer. 
E27  Unit installation error  Stops 
The number of installed units exceeds the limit. Turn off the 
power supply and check the restrictions on unit combinations. 
E28  System register error  Stops 
Probably an error in the system registers. Check the system 
register settings. 
E30 
Interrupt error 0  Stops  Probably a hardware problem. Please contact your dealer. 
E31  Interrupt error 1  Stops 
An interrupt occurred without an interrupt request. A hardware 
problem or error due to noise is possible. Turn off the power 
and check the noise conditions. 
An interrupt occurred without an interrupt request. A hardware 
problem or error due to noise is possible. Turn off the power 
and check the noise conditions. 
E32  Interrupt error 2  Stops 
There is no interrupt program for an interrupt which occurred. 
Check the number of the interrupt program and change it to 
agree with the interrupt request. 
E34 
I/O status error  Stops  A faulty unit is installed. Replace the unit with a new one. 
E40 
Position of abnormal 
I/O unit 
Stops 
An error in an I/O unit occurred. Check the error using the 
system variable sys_wHardwareErrorLeftIoUnit and locate the 
faulty FPΣ expansion I/O unit. Then check the unit. 
E41  Intelligent unit error  Stops 
An error in an intelligent unit occurred. Check the error using 
the system variable sys_wHardwareErrorIntelligentUnit_0_15 
and locate the faulty FPΣ intelligent unit. 
E42  I/O unit verify error  Selectable 
The connection condition of an I/O unit has changed 
compared to that at the time of power-up. Check the error 
using using sys_wVerifyErrorRightUnit (FP0 expansion I/O 
unit) or sys_wVerifyErrorUnit_16_31 (FPΣ expansion I/O unit) 
and locate the faulty I/O unit. Set the operation status using 
system register 23 to continue operation. 
E45 
Operation error  Selectable 
Operation became impossible when a high-level instruction 
was executed. The causes of calculation errors vary 
depending on the instruction. Set the operation status using 
system register 23 to continue operation. 
E50  Battery error  Selectable 
The voltage of the backup battery decreased or the battery is 
not connected to the control unit. Check the connection of the 
backup battery and replace the battery if necessary. This self-
diagnostic error can be set with system register 4 (in this case, 
the ERROR/ALARM LED flashes).

Self-
diagnostic 
error set by 
F148_ERR 
E200–
E299 
Continues 
The self-diagnostic error specified by the F148_ERR 
instruction occurred. Take steps to clear the error condition 
according to the specification you chose.
