Chapter 6 - GP RUN Mode and Errors
• In Toshiba's PROSEC T Series, the Error Code is 4 characters long; on the GP,
Error Numbers are changed to and displayed in Hexadecimal.
• With the Allen-Bradley PLC-5 and SLC-500 Series, the EXT/STS error codes
have been re-mapped to start at D0 HEX, so they will not conflict with other error
codes. When looking up the error number in the PLC manual, subtract D0 h
from the GP error code to find its error value.
n n n n n CLOCK SET UP ERROR
This message displays when the backup battery for the internal clock is running
low. To reset the error, you need to turn the GP OFF and then ON again. After the
GP is turned ON again, the battery has sufficient power to back up data for ap-
proximately 24 working hours (approx. 3 working days), and will continue hold-
ing a charge for approximately 96 hours (approx. 12 working days). If, however,
the error is still not reset after turning the GP OFF and ON, you will need to
replace the lithium battery with a new one. If the battery is incorrectly replaced
(i.e, its plus and minus sides are reversed,) the battery may explode, therefore,
please do not replace the battery yourself. When the battery needs to be replaced,
please contact your local GP distributor.
After changing the backup battery, be sure to set the GP's internal clock.
The lifetime of the backup battery depends on the ambient temperature and the amount
of current being charged and used. The table below gives a general indication of how
long the battery will last.
n SCREEN TAG LIMIT EXCEEDED (max. of 384)
When tags are setup beyond the tag limit, all tags in excess of #384 will be dis-
abled. Plus, when tags involve registered Windows and loaded screens, they are
disabled in this order: Window Registry, Load Screen.
Additionally:
1. Disabled registered windows start from the last screen used.
2. Disabled loaded screens start from the last screen used.
To correct this problem, reduce the number of tags to within the allowed limit.
