WinPC-NC Economy Additional Information
• Communication failed / Timeout
Communcation of WinPC-NC interferes with the realtime-DLL. Please report this
error to the program authors, providing as many details as possible.
• Protection hood not closed
The protective hood or another protective device has not been closed and therefore
no process can be started. The machine can still be set up.
• Command rejected during machine movement
There is a fault in the connection between WinPC-NC and the realtime module.
Please report this error to the program authors, providing as many details as
possible.
• File with invalid format
The selected file does not match the set data format. Change the parameter or the
data format to HPGL or drilling format.
• Help file not found
The file with the help texts cannot be found. It is called WINPCNC.HLP and must
be located in the current folder or in the WinPC-NC folder. No help texts can be
displayed.
• Workpiece exceeds working area
The set working area was exceeded during machining of the current workpiece. It
may be possible to rectify this condition by performing reference travel. If not,
either change the unit of measurement,move the zero point or increase the working
area.
• Next position outside working area
The current working process has been cancelled because the next position to which
movement should take place is outside the set working area. Correct the settings
and restart the working process.
• Unknown command
The NC file contains an unknown command and the working process has therefore
been stopped. It can now be cancelled or continued with the next command.
• Cannot create file
WinPC-NC tried unsuccessfully to create a file on the current drive. Either the
drive is not ready or it is full, write protected or you do not have any access rights.
Correct the problem or change to another drive.
• No park position defined
You can only move to the park position if you have defined the corresponding
coordinates, i.e. they are set to values other than zero.
• Required tools not defined
The working file uses tool numbers which have not yet been defined. The plunge
depth and plunge speed must be defined for every tool, and HPGL files also need
the feed speed to be defined.
• Tool moves in too far
The plunge depth of a tool or the depth and the defined feed corrections are deeper
than the maximum plunge depth or the limit of the Z-axis working area.
• G code or DIN/ISO syntax error
There is a syntactical error in the G code file being processed. Please use the editor
to correct the line in question and restart the working process.
