Error codes

What a robot’s error code means, from the maker’s own directory, with a link to the page where the maker says what to do about it.

Type the code from the teach pendant, or words from the message. Each directory is grouped the way the maker prints it: by robot generation, then by section.

Too high current detected on Digital Output: {unsigned} high side

Causes, as the directory gives them

  • Tool Digital Output pin has been turned off as a too high source current was detected.
  • Tool Digital Output pin has been turned off as a too high sink current was detected.
