softkey. You cannot usethis softkeyif the tooloffsetsare active.
CANNOT USE EXIT -BLOCK NOTFOUND An attempt wasmade to{EXIT} while searchingfor ablock for amid-program start. You cannot

CANNOT WRITE A READ-ONLY PARAMETER An attempt was made toassign a value to a PAL or system paramacroparameter that is a
read-only parameter. The value of these parameters canbe used only bythe programmer; they
cannot be altered in the program.
CANNOT WRITE TOPROGRAM Thisindicates aserious problem withthe program. Attempt to writeto programa secondtime.
If retry doesn’t work, youmay haveto deletethe program. Typically this error isnot caused by a
programmer or operator action, but ratherby aninternal program softwareerror.
CAUTION! YOU ARE IN7300 TAPE MODE
TORETURN TO STANDARD 9/240MODE
RESET THE 7300--COMPATIBILITY PAL FLAG

is largerthan oneor bothof the twoadjacent tool paths.
CHAMFER/RADIUS NOTALLOWED Anattempt was made to perform achamfer or radius cut (programmedwith a,R or ,C)in a
block that doesnot allow thesefunctions tobe performed. For example, you cannot doa
chamfer or radiuscut in anon-motion block, inthe last blockon anMDI line, or in the last block
of a part program.
CHANGE NOTMADE IN BUFFEREDBLOCKS Changes to the offset table didnot affect thoseprogram blocks that werealready inthe control’ s
current activation queue. Program blocks that callfor offsetsand whichfollow thosealready in
the activation queue will call theupdated offset tables.
