MM4006 8 -Axis Motion Controller/Driver
A E r r o r Messages
The MM4006 controller continually verifies the actions of the motion control
system and the operator. When an error is detected, the controller stores it
in an error register. To avoid communication and application conflicts, the
MM4006 does not automatically report the error. It is the user's responsibili-
ty to periodically query the error status, particularly during the development
phase of an application.
To better understand error-handling, keep in mind the following points:
• Reading the error with 'FE or TB clears the error buffer.
• T h e controller stores only the last error encountered.
• O n c e an error is detected, it is stored until read or replaced by a new
error.
• T h e error read represents an error that could have happened at any
time since the last read.
• F o r faster communication throughput, use the TE command to read
only the error code.
• U s e the TB command to read an existing error or to translate an error
code.
