9.1.4
Messages in
the “Current Alarm” and “Stopreason” lines
The uppermost line "Current Alarm" describes briefly in words and some-
times in conspicuous red letters all conditions that do not correspond to the
normal operation of the printer. These could be error messages or else just
the notice that a door has been opened on the stopped printer. Although
this is not an error, it is a condition that will prevent the printer from being
started again and therefore has to be shown.
Each message shown in the "Current Alarm" line is displayed only until the
irregularity has been eliminated or until another error signal with higher pri-
ority is received and simply writes over the previous text.
If an error message is shown in the “Stopreason” line, then usually it in-
volves a more critical situation, which entails a potential hazard for the op-
erating personnel or the plant. Therefore, the printer is stopped abruptly.
Thereafter, the plant would not be able to be restarted until the problem has
been eliminated.
Any message shown in t
he “Stopreason” line will not be deleted until the
cause of the error has been eliminated and the printer has been restarted.
But if you want to view all of the errors that occurred in the past and which
are still pend
ing, all you have to do is press “
Alarms
”, and then a separate
window with all the latest messages will open on the screen.
The following table gives an overview of all the messages which can be
shown in the status displays “Current Alarm” and “Stopreason". Besides
short explanations and instructions on how to handle the error, the last col-
umn specifies who can eliminate the individual errors.
