13.2.1 Error Messages during Probing
TOUCH POINT INACCESSIBLE

WRONG AXIS PROGRAMMED
- The touch probe axis in the scanning cycle RANGE is not identical to the calibrated
touch probe axis.
FAULTY RANGE DATA
- In the scanning cycle RANGE a MIN coordinate value is higher than or equal to the
corresponding MAX coordinate value.
- One or more coordinates are beyond the range determined by the software limit switches
in the scanning cycle RANGE.
- No scanning cycle RANGE is defined when calling the scanning cycles MEANDER or
CONTOUR LINES.
MIRRORING NOT PERMITTED
ROTATION NOT PERMITTED
SCALING FACTOR NOT PERMITTED
