Description: 
MISCERRORDISABLE is a bitmap of the associated MISCERROR bits, which if set will prevent the error 
handler (
#ONERROR) being called in response to that miscellaneous error being detected. 
The error will still be flagged in 
MISCERROR. 
Bit Mint Constant  Meaning 
0 
_me12V

14 
_meOUTPUT_POWER2

The 12V Fail, Output short circuits and servo tick overrun cannot be disabled. 
Setting a bit in MISCERRORDISABLE prevents that error from causing a call to #ONERROR. The 
following miscellaneous errors have a default action that takes place when the error occurs. The default 
action will always be performed, regardless of the state of the 
MISCERRORDISABLE keyword. 
Bit 0: 12Vfail. All axes are disabled. 
Bits 1,2 and 3: Output driver faults. All outputs are de-activated in that bank. 
Bit 8: Servo tick overrun. The 
LOOPTIME and PROFILETIME keywords are reset to their default 
values.
