Output error messages with FN 14: ERROR

Application

With the FN 14: ERROR function, you can output error messages under program control. The messages are predefined by the machine manufacturer or by HEIDENHAIN.

Description of function

If, during program run or during simulation, the control executes the FN 14: ERROR function, it will interrupt program run and display the defined message. You must then restart the NC program.

You define the error number for the desired error message.

The error numbers are grouped as follows:

Error number range

Error message

0 ... 999

Machine-dependent dialog

1000 ... 1199

Control-dependent dialog

Preassigned error numbers for FN 14: ERROR

Input

NC programs contained in this User's Manual are suggestions for solutions. The NC programs or individual NC blocks must be adapted before being used on a machine.

  • Change the following contents as needed:
  • Tools
  • Cutting parameters
  • Feed rates
  • Clearance height or safe position
  • Machine-specific positions, e.g. with M91
  • Paths of program calls

Some NC programs depend on the machine kinematics. Adapt these NC programs to your machine kinematics before the first test run.

In addition, test the NC programs using the simulation before the actual program run.

 
Tip

With a program test you determine whether the NC program can be used with the available software options, the active machine kinematics and the current machine configuration.
