    FM-3 Programming Module Installation Manual Introduction FM-3 is a compact and rugged function module that attaches to the front of the E Series drive. It provides eight digital input lines and four digital output lines, in addition to the four input and three output lines available on the E Series E drive.
  • Page 14 FM-3 Programming Module Installation Manual The FM-3 stores E Series drive setup parameters within the module itself. This allows you to transfer the FM-3 to another E Series drive without losing setup parameters. Fastening Latch 3 Row by 12 Character Display...

    FM-3 Programming Module Installation Manual Programming Error Messages These Red Dot Error messages occur while you are working in the Program View. When creating a program, the parser is executed when you left mouse click, when you arrow off the current Line, when you enter the carriage return, when you paste or when you drop a drag source.
  • Page 35 Diagnostics and Troubleshooting Error: A string variable can only be assigned a quoted text string The Variable is string. It only accepts types consisting of text strings. Error: Can only compare(>,<,etc) numeric results This message occurs in conditional Expressions (i.e. If then). Variables are type identified, so equation and assignments (x = 9) can be verified.
  • Page 36 FM-3 Programming Module Installation Manual Error: Syntax error encountered Parser Error Message. The Parser can not understand your text sequence. Error: Text Strings are limited to 12 characters... To change a Name you assign a quoted text string to that name. In FM3, text strings are fixed at 12 characters.
  • Page 37 Diagnostics and Troubleshooting Error: The destination variable's resolution is less than the resolution of the number You attempted to assign a number with a greater resolution of decimal points than the variable will accept (ie index.0.vel = 2.34567). The User Units setup will allow you to define the desired decimal point resolution.
