(3) You have tried to write into a pull-down window while it is displayed.
User action: (1) If the intended device is a system microfloppy disk drive, make sure
the diskette is correctly inserted and formatted.
(2) If a limited-access device is specified, ABORT and KILL the program
task that has it attached, or wait for the program task to release the
device. If the intended device is on the network, check that the proper
connections are made and that the remote system is operating correctly.
(2) ABORT and KILL the program task that has the device attached, or
wait for the task to release the device.
(3) The pull-down menu should not be modified with the FSET
instruction while it is being displayed. A suitable time for modifying the
pull-down menu is immediately after receiving a menu-selection event.
*Directory error* (–509)
Explanation: An error occurred while accessing a disk directory, possibly because the
diskette was not formatted or the diskette has been damaged in some
way.
User action: Make sure the correct diskette is being used, that it is properly installed in
the drive, and that it is formatted. (Recall that formatting a diskette erases
its contents.)
*Duty-cycle exceeded* Mtr n (–1021)
Explanation: The indicated motor has been driven fast for too long a period of time.
The servo system has disabled Arm Power to protect the robot hardware.
User action: Turn on Arm Power; reduce the speed and/or acceleration for the motion
that was in progress, or for motions that preceded that motion; and repeat
the motion that failed.
*Encoder fault* Mtr n (–1025)
Explanation: The servo board has detected a broken encoder wire on the indicated axis.
User Action: Inspect the encoder wiring for intermittent connections or broken wires.
Try swapping the encoder cable with another. You can disable this error
with the SPEC utility, but do so only as a last resort. The detection system
is compatible only with certain types of encoders (differential). Consult
the AdeptMotion VME Developer’s Guide. Verify that the motion interface
board is configured correctly for the type of encoder you are using.
*Encoder quadrature error* Belt n (–1013)
Explanation: The position encoder signal from the specified conveyor belt is sending
information that is not phased correctly. The encoder or its cabling may
be defective. (Encoder error checking is initiated by the DEFBELT
instruction, and by enabling the BELT switch while a belt is defined.)
User action: Make sure the encoder cable is properly connected. Try to run the
conveyor at a slower speed. Contact Adept Customer Service if the error
persists.
