Message Description
2
2MB RAM IS BAD/MISSING The control has discovered the RAM SIMMs for the two megabyte extended storage option are
either damaged or missing. The RAM SIMMs must be installed or replaced. Contact your Allen
Bradley sales representative for assistance.
9
9/SERIES LATHE - CANNOT USE MILL AMP The control was powered up with a lathe software option chip installed, when the AMP file that
was downloaded was configured for a mill.
9/SERIES MILL - CANNOT USE LATHE AMP The control was powered up with a mill software option chip installed, when the AMP file that
was downloaded was configured for a lathe.
7300
7300 NAMES TABLE IS CORRUPTED 7300 program name doesn’t match corresponding name in cross-reference table.
7300 PATTERN NAME TOO LONG More than 5 digits have been used in the pattern name.
A
A RETRACE BUFFER WAS DELETED The control required one (or more) of the block retrace buffers to perform a necessary block
look-ahead operation (refer to block look-ahead in the user’s manual). When this occurs, less
block retrace operations can be performed than AMP is configured to allow. If this error occurs,
to improve control efficiency, it is recommended that the number of allowable block retrace
blocks set in AMP be lowered or add additional RAM to you system.
ABS POSITION NOT INITIALIZED This message indicates that axes with absolute encoders have not been homed. These axes
require an initial homing operation to establish the absolute position.
ABSOLUTE FEEDBACK FAILURE The control has detected a loss of feedback from the absolute encoder. The most likely cause
of this error would be a broken or disconnected wire. Axis homing may be required after the
error condition is corrected.
ACC/DEC CONFIGURATION ERROR An axis configuration error was detercted by the control when manual acc/dec was requested in
a program block.
ACCUM. AND EXPECTED LIFE ARE 0 No tool life data was entered for the current tool selected by the tool life management feature.
Tool life management will be disabled for this tool.
ACTIVE GROUP CANNOT BE DELETED An attempt was made to delete a tool group in the tool life management feature that contains an
active tool currently in the tool holder.
ACTIVE OFFSET CANNOT CHANGE An attempt was made to alter a tool offset value of a tool offset that is currently the active tool
offset on the control. The active tool offset is indicated with an * on the tool offset table.
ACTIVE TOOL CANNOT BE CHANGED An attempt was made to edit tool data for the currently active tool. De-activate the tool before
editing.
ACTIVE TOOL CANNOT BE DELETED An attempt was made to delete tool data for the currently active tool. De-activate the tool before
editing.
ADAPTIVE FEED MAX LIMIT The actual torque is less than the desired programmed torque and the adaptive feed axis has
reached the programmed maximum feed limit. Either raise the programmed maximum feed
limit, or lower the programmed desired torque.
ADAPTIVE FEED MIN LIMIT This message indicates your are exceeding the programmed desired torque. The actual torque
is greater than the desired programmed torque and the adaptive feed axis has reached the
programmed minimum feed limit. Either raise the programmed desired torque or lower the
minimum feed limit.
ADAPTIVE FEED PROGRAMMING ERROR E and Q must both be programmed in every G25 block.
ALL DUAL AXES ARE PARKED An attempt was made, while using dual axes, to move the dual group when all the axes of that
group were parked.
AMP FILE SIZE ERROR The size of the AMP file being downloaded is incorrect. The file cannot be downloaded.
