Number Message Description
PS5457 G68.2/G68.3 FORMAT ERROR A G68.2/G68.3 format error occurred.
PS5459 MACHINE PARAMETER
INCORRECT
- A machine configuration parameter (parameter No.19665
to 19667, No. 19680 to 19714, or No. 12321) is incorrect.
- The axis set in parameter No. 19681 or 19686 is not a
rotation axis.
- The basic three axes are not set in parameter No. 1022.
- In tool center point control type 2, cutter compensation
type 2 for 5-axis machining, or a tilted working plane
command, the NC attempted to obtain the end point of
the rotation axis, but no end point was present within the
range specified by parameter Nos. 19741 to 19744.
- In tool center point control type 2 or cutter compensation
type 2 for 5-axis machining, the end point of the rotation
axis could not be obtained. Check and correct the
machine configuration and commands.
- With a machine using a hypothetical axis as a rotation
axis, tool center point control type 2 or cutter
compensation type 2 for 5-axis machining is specified.
- When the workpiece coordinate system is set for
programming, tool center point control type 2 or cutter
compensation type 2 for 5-axis machining is specified.
PS5462 ILLEGAL COMMAND (G68.2/G69)
(1)The modal is in error when G68.2/G69 command is
executed.
(2)An illegal G code which cannot be commanded in
G68.2 mode is specified.
