10.2 ALARMS DURING CONVERSION OF THE MACHINING
PROGRAM INTO NC PROGRAM
While the machining program is being converted into the NC program,
the machining program is running for check drawing. A P/S alarm
may occur because of the contents of the machining program.
For the P/S alarms, see appendix II. which describes the alarms that
may occur when the machining program is running. Then correct the
machining program.
If the P/S alarm occurs during the conversion, the converted part of
the machining program has already been stored in the tape memory
area. To restart the conversion of the machining program, correct the
erroneous part, delete the converted part, and perform conversion
from the beginning.
The following alarms may occur while the conversion.
Alarm
No.
Description
Cause Insufficient tape memory area070
Action Take the following action depending on the condition:
1) If another NC program is already registered and
the remaining memory is insufficient for the
program being currently converted.
-> Save the registered NC program in the external
memory unit via the reader/puncher interface,
delete the program, and resume conversion.
2) If the entire reserved area is insufficient for the
program being currently converted.

parameters. However, this causes the manual
guide program area to be reduced and all data
items to be cleared temporarily.

optional setting) exceeded.
