The Technical Manual is not enclosed with every control. In general, it is only supplied to the machine tool manufacturer and is updated by HEIDENHAIN, Traunreut. Therefore, it is absolutely necessary to contact the machine tool manufacturer, if errors occur that are due to a machine parameter or to the interface of the control.
Kundendienst/ Service 2. Integrated Monitoring System TNC 426.B/430 features a comprehensive integral monitoring system to avoid input and operation errors, to locate errors and technical defects of the entire equipment (TNC, measuring systems, machine tool, cables etc.). The monitoring system is a fixed component of the TNC hardware and software; it is always active when the control is switched on.

Error: 05:42:00 Please contact HEIDENHAIN, if an operating-system error message (white letters on black screen) is generated. The last operating-system error message is stored in ASCII format in the PLC partition in PLC:\ERROR.JOU. If a gross error occurs the control opens the contact "Control is Ready" which causes an emergency stop of the machine tool.

Kundendienst/ Service Locating an error in the position encoder circuit To find out whether the encoder or the encoder input of the logic unit is defective, the encoders can be switched at the logic unit. For this purpose the values of the related machine parameters must be changed, too. IMPORTANT: The allocation of the axes (1st axis, 2nd axis etc.) to the axis names (X, Y, Z etc.) is defined by the machine tool builder in the machine parameter MP 100.x (see machine parameter list).

Kundendienst/ Service Flowchart to locate an error in the position encoder circuit X encoder: amplitude too small The following machine parameter configuration serves as an example: MP 100.x = -----CZYX ( X = 1. axis, Y = 2. axis, Z = 3. axis, C = 4. axis) MP 110.0 = 1 (X axis at position input X1) MP 110.1 = 2 (Y axis at position input X2) MP 110.2 = 3 (Z axis at position input X3)
Kundendienst/ Service 14.2 Speed encoder circuit Digital axes normally are operated with two encoders per axis. In most cases sealed encoders are used as position encoders. The speed encoder is a rotary encoder incorporated in the servo drive. IMPORTANT: The allocation of the axes (1st axis, 2nd axis etc.) to the axis names (X, Y, Z etc.) is defined by the machine tool builder in the machine parameter MP 100.x (see machine parameter list).

Kundendienst/ Service 14.3 Electrical inspection of an encoder In order to give a precise statement on the electrical function of an encoder, it must be measured with a phase angle measuring unit (PWM), an oscilloscope and a leak tester. (see operating instructions of encoder diagnostic set) Several adapters have been created to measure the different types of encoder signals (11µA, 1Vpp, TTL) at TNC 426.B/430.A with the PWM.
