Error and System Messages

Message
Description
SPINDLE IS CLAMPED
An attempt was made to program a block containing a spindle code other than an M05 while the
PAL servo clamp request flag for the spindle was set.
SPINDLE MODES INCOMPATIBLE
An attempt was made to enter virtual mode when the spindle that is used for this mode is
synchronized as the follower spindle or an attempt was made to perform end face milling during
synchronization.
SPINDLE MOTOR SPEED TOO HIGH
When using a 1326 motor as a spindle, feedback resolution combined with your configured
maximum spindle speed would return feedback counts faster than the control can reliably
decode. Either reduce the maximum configured spindle speed, or reduce the configured
feedback counts for the spindle in AMP.
SPINDLE MUST BE THE LAST SERVO
When the system is AMPed, the spindle must be assigned to the first available port after all axes
have been assigned.
SPINDLE NOT ASSIGNED
A spindle axis was AMPed, but not assigned to any process.
SPINDLE ORDER ERROR, AMP AUX. 2 SECOND
AMP order of spindles must be primary spindle, aux. spindle 2, aux. spindle 3.
SPINDLE ORDER ERROR, AMP AUX. 3 THIRD
AMP order of spindles must be primary spindle, aux. spindle 2, aux. spindle 3.
SPINDLE ORDER ERROR, AMP PRIMARY 1ST
AMP order of spindles must be primary spindle, aux. spindle 2, aux. spindle 3.
SPINDLE SYNC NOT CONFIGURED
The programmer attempted to enter synchronized spindle mode before it was configured in
AMP.
SPINDLE SYNC UNAVAILABLE THIS PROCESS
An attempt was made to enter synchronized spindle mode on a dual--process control when the
process was not yet configured for both spindles in the synchronized pair.
SQUARE ROOT OF NEGATIVE ERROR
Internal math error has occurred; contact Allen-Bradley customer support services.
SQUARE ROOT OF NEGATIVE INVALID
An attempt was made to determine the square root of a negative number using the calculator or
through a paramacro SQRT command.
STORED PASSWORD LIST TO BACKUP
This message appears after the password list has been successfully stored to the control’s
backup memory.
STORING TO BACKUP - PLEASE WAIT
This message appears whenever AMP or axis calibration data in RAM is being stored in backup
memory.
SYMBOL NAME FORMAT ERROR
Check the remote symbol and CNC symbol to make sure they exist on both remote and CNC.
Check the table of the read only or write only variables.
SYMBOL NOT FOUND
Check the remote symbol and CNC symbol to make sure they exist on both remote and CNC.
Check the table of the read only or write only variables.
SYNCHRONIZATION DEADLOCK
A synchronization code is activated and caused the activating process to wait on a process that
is already waiting.
SYNCH SPINDLES MISCONFIGURED
Causes for this could be: only one spindle (either controlling or follower) was defined in the
synchronized spindle pair, you exceeded the simple feedback ratio limitation of 10 (e.g., 11:1 or
2:13), or on a multiprocess system, one (or both) of the spindles in the synch pair is currently not
available to the process making the synchronization request.
SYNCH SPINDLES REQUIRE FEEDBACK
One or both of the spindles, configured in AMP as a member of a synchronized pair, did not
have feedback. Both spindles in a synchronized pair must be equipped with an AMP configured
feedback device.
SYNTAX ERROR (COMMA)
A missing comma or an extra comma was found in the program block.
SYSTEM DIAGNOSTIC #1
An illegal parameter was passed into a switch statement (mid-program start) in the control
software. Contact Allen-Bradley customer support services.
SYSTEM DIAGNOSTIC #2
An illegal parameter was passed into a switch statement (ASCII buffer task) in the control
software. Contact Allen-Bradley customer support services.
SYSTEM DIAGNOSTIC #3
An illegal parameter was passed into a switch statement (ASCII buffer task) in the control
software. Contact Allen-Bradley customer support services.
