8.5.5 Error Monitor
The drive acquires the history of errors that are currently being generated (hereafter referred
to as status) and errors that were generated in the past (hereafter referred to as history). The
drive retains history information retains even if its power is off. The drive stores a maximum of
16 statuses and history information. If an error number being displayed is selected, a detailed
description pertaining to that error is displayed.
However, if other dialog function is used, update may be stopped once. In such a case,
resume the operation by pressing the [START] button.
If the drive is in the error state, two or more error numbers may be generated from one error
factor. In the status display, errors are displayed in the order they are generated. Therefore,
the error displayed at the beginning may represent the main cause. In the status display, if the
number of errors that are generated at once exceeds the maximum number of errors that can
be stored (16), excessive errors are not displayed.
In history display, the date and time when errors are generated are displayed starting from the
oldest date and time. The history information exceeding the maximum number of errors that
can be stored (16) is deleted starting from the oldest history.
A numerical value in one hexadecimal byte length is displayed next to an error code when in
history display. This value is a free-run counter value inside the drive at the time of an error
occurrence. Although this drive does not have the calendar function, displayed errors can be
grouped by error occurrence time by referencing this value.
Switches between status and history information
For status display, a list of generated errors is
displayed.
For history display, the past error history stored is
displayed.
Updates information while the lamp is lit.
This is an area used to display detailed information
