MAXIMUMBLOCK NUMBER REACHED A renumberoperationwasperformedtorenumberblock sequence numbers(N-words),and the
controlhas exceededa block numberofN99999. Eitherthe programistoolargetorenumber,
ortheparameters forthefirstsequencenumber,orthesequencenumberincrement,aretoo
large. Whenthiserroroccurs,the renumberoperationstops renumberingatthe lastblock
within the legal range ofN-words.
MAXIM UMNUMBER OF AXESEXCEEDED IftheCOCOMbreakoutis true,amaximumof4 concurrentinterpolated axes canbe used.
MAXIM UMNUMBER OF PROGRAMS The RAMdiskdirectoryfor partprogram storage isfull. Youcan storeonly328 fileson the
systemeven when memoryis available forpartprogramstorage.
MAXIMUMRETRACE COUNT REACHED The limit(definedin AMP)fortheamountofretrace blocks allowed wasreached. No further
retracing willbe allowed.
MAXIM UMREVERSE PLANES EXCEEDED The order thatthe axesarenamed in AMP is important. If,forexample,axisone’snameis
assignedas X andaxisthree’sname is assigned asZ,a reverseplane isdefined ifthe G18
planeis assigned inAMP astheZX plane. The G18 planedefinesa plane consistingofaxis3
followed by axis1,making itareverse plane(axis 1followed byaxis3 wouldbe a normal plane
since1 isconfiguredbefore 3fromthestandpointof ODS). This also pertainsto parallel axes.
Amaximum of fourreverse planesisallowed. Ifyoursystem exceedsthis numberofreverse
planes,youmustre-configureyourAMP.
