Error Handler Description
Figure 1, Fault Menu Screen
The area above the double line shows the functions available to the operator.
In this case there is only one, Clear Faults.
The area below the double line shows the status of the controller faults,
program errors and axis faults.
2.2 Clearing The Faults
To clear the system faults, simply press the ENTER key. If the faults are
successfully cleared, the screen will be refreshed showing no controller faults,
program errors or axis faults. If the faults cannot be cleared, the screen will
show those faults, errors, etc. that remain.
2.3 Restarting The Machine
When you press the ESCAPE key, the system will leave the Fault Menu. If you
called the menu manually, the program will return to the point in the program
where the menu was called. If it entered the Fault Menu as a result of a fault
occurring, it will return to a routine that attempts to restart the machine. This
routine is application specific and should be written to provide a safe restart
procedure which takes any special application requirements into account.
