Appendix E - System Messages
User Action: Make sure that the correct type of robot is being used. Use the CONFIG_C
utility to change the module ID to –1 in the V
+
configuration data. Correct
the module ID in the RSC.
*RSC power failure* (–670)
Explanation: The RSC has reported that its power is failing. Because a power failure on
the RSC almost always causes it to stop communicating altogether
(rendering it incapable of reporting the failure), this error message may
be due to some other cause, such as electrical noise at the RSC or within
or around the arm signal cable.
It is possible that the power lines to the RSC have an intermittent
connection somewhere.
User Action: If the problem persists, contact Adept Customer Service.
*Servo board E-Stop fuse open* (–673)
Explanation: Your servo board has a fused ESTOP circuit, and the system has detected
an open circuit at that location.
User Action: Refer to your hardware documentation, consult with Adept Customer
Service as needed for details about types and locations of fuses, and
replace the fuse.
*Servo board 12v fuse open* (–671)
Explanation: Your servo board has a fused 12-volt bus, and the system has detected an
open circuit at that location.
User Action: Refer to your hardware documentation, and replace the fuse.
*Servo board solenoid fuse open* (–672)
Explanation: Your servo board has a fused robot solenoid control line, and the system
has detected an open circuit at that location.
User Action: Refer to your hardware documentation, and replace the fuse.
*Servo task overloaded* (–674)
Explanation: A servo interrupt task has used up all the execution time. The detection
algorithm reports an error when the servo interrupt task completely
occupies 10 or more time slices per second of real time. The robot went to
a fatal error state when this error occurred, and the servo interrupt task
stopped running.
User action: Change one or more of the following: (1) move servo tasks off CPU #1 to
allow more time for trajectory generation, (2) change CPU #1 from an 030
to an 040 to increase the throughput, or (3) reduce the number of robots or
axes that you are operating.
*Soft envelope error* (–1006)
Explanation: The indicated motor was not tracking the commanded position with
sufficient accuracy, indicating a failure in the hardware servo system or
