The details of the error cannot be
determined solely by checking the indi-
cators.
If communications between Power
PMAC IDE and Programmable
Multi-Axis Controller are not available,
refer to “Interrupted communications
between Power PMAC IDE and Pro-
grammable Multi-Axis Controller” in

If the error state persists even after
communications are established, or if
errors other than the ones mentioned
above persist, use PMAC Power IDE
to check details. Refer to “Power
PMAC IDE User Manual” for details.
