Adept MV Controller User’s Guide, Rev C 229
amplifier chassis is properly connected to a power source and is turned
on. Try again. If the problem persists, contact Adept Customer Service.
*Timeout: Hold-to-run not toggled* (–649)
Explanation: V
+
did not enable high power because you failed to toggle properly the
HOLD-TO-RUN
switch on the manual control pendant. This message
applies only to systems with the MMSP option, in
MANUAL
mode.
User action: Do one or more of the following: (1) when toggling the
HOLD-TO-RUN
switch, release it for a minimum of about two seconds and a maximum of
six seconds, and then press it back in; and (2) make sure that you are
pressing the
HOLD-TO-RUN
switch and not the
RUN/HOLD
button by
mistake. This may also be caused by a faulty MCP, VFP, or cable.
*Too many arguments* (–553)
Explanation: Too many arguments were specified for the last command or instruction.
User action: Reenter the command or instruction, but with the correct number of
arguments.
*Trajectory clock overrun* (–636)
Explanation: One of these two conditions has occurred: (1) the V
+
internal trajectory
task was to be restarted but was still running from the last time that it was
initiated; or (2) because the trajectory task took too long to write out new
setpoints to the servos, the commands were not available when the servos
expected the data.
User action: Perform one or more of the following: (1) increase the trajectory cycle
time if less than 16msec is being used; (2) move servo tasks off CPU #1 to
allow more time for trajectory generation; (3) change CPU #1 from an 030
to an 040 to increase the throughput; (4) reduce the number of robots or
axes that you are operating; or (5) change the servo rate to 1KHz if the
trajectory cycle time is set to 2ms.
*Undefined program or variable name* (–406)
Explanation: The program or variable, referenced in a command or program step, does
not exist—possibly because the name was mistyped.
User action: If the correct name was entered, create the program or variable using one
of the V
+
editors, the appropriate V
+
monitor commands, or by loading
from a disk file.
*Unexpected text at end of line* (–451)
Explanation: The previous command or instruction could not be recognized by V
+
,
possibly because of a mistyped function name or because an argument
was specified where none is allowed.
User action: Reenter the line, correcting the syntax error.
