EXT_IMPNT_SMALLER
External immersion point less than internal immersion point
The bit indicates whether the external immersion point is less than the inter‐
nal immersion point.
0: External immersion point >= internal immersion point
1: Ext. immersion point < int. immersion point
This status bit is only relevant when STS is selected (P102=1).
Note:
If the external immersion point is less than the internal immersion point, then
appropriate collision protection measures must be implemented in the high‐
er-level control system.
9
POS_IN_SAFETY_AREA
Actual position within safety clearance
0: Actual position outside safety clearance
1: Actual position within safety clearance
Note:
Only the safety clearance for semi-automatic mode (SAM) is considered.
The safety clearance is defined by parameters P33 and P72.
10
POS_IN_BR_MAN
The actual position is in a blocked region (MAN mode only)
11-15 -
Reserved
The messages described below are used primarily to detect why a start in semi-automatic
mode (SAM) is not possible.

0
Target position not in permit‐
ted limits
Target position not in permitted limits
Target position is not within the set limits for positioning.
1
Starting position not in permit‐
ted limits
Starting position not in permitted limits
Starting position is not within the set limits for positioning.
2
Starting position in a fixed
blocked region
Starting position in a fixed blocked region
Current starting position is in a fixed blocked region.
3
Target position in a fixed
blocked region
Target position in a fixed blocked region
Target position is in a fixed blocked region.
4
No path found
No path found
A travel curve cannot be calculated for the starting and target point by the target
generator.
5
Starting position is same as
target position
Starting position is same as target position
The starting position is the same as the target position. The bit is output when the
trolley position at the time of starting in SAM mode differs from the target position by
less than twice the positioning accuracy. The START_AUTO_OK bit is not set.
6
Excessive oscillation
Excessive oscillation
This bit is set in all operating modes on condition that the oscillation is greater than the
oscillation parameterized in P156.
Furthermore, the error message E62 is triggered when travel is initiated (if the TRAV‐
EL control bit is set) in POS or SAM mode.
7
Slack rope on the waterside
Slack rope on the waterside
This bit is set if the SLACKROPE control bit is set and the trolley is on the waterside.
