         Introduction While the V system is being used, it is possible for hardware and software errors to occur. For example, if commands or instructions are not entered in the correct way, V rejects the input. The usual response is to write an error message to the system terminal indicating what is wrong so that the user can correct the error.
  • Page 264     !" Aborted (–400) Explanation: The last command requested, or the program that was executing, has been aborted at the operator’s request. User action: None. *Already attached to logical unit* (–515) Explanation: A program has executed more than one ATTACH instruction for a specific logical unit, without executing a DETACH in between.
  • Page 265     !" User action: To have V continue, type y followed by a carriage return. An n fol- lowed by a carriage return or just a carriage return causes the com- mand to be aborted. *Arithmetic overflow* (–409) Explanation: The result of a calculation was outside the allowable range for real variables or V has encountered a number that is outside the allowed range for integers while converting a real-valued number...
  • Page 266     !" the program. The most likely problem is confusing a location vari- able with a real variable. If you just exited from the editor, the named variable conflicts with a global variable that already exists. User action: If the new use of the variable is correct, you must delete all refer- ences to the incorrect variable and then reenter the statement that caused the error.
  • Page 267     !" *Bad camera calibration* (–726) Explanation: A VPUTCAL instruction has been used to pass vision calibration data to the AdeptVision system, and one or more of the data ele- ments is not valid. User action: Make sure the program reads the calibration data from a valid data file, or make sure valid values are asserted by the program.
  • Page 268     !" *Branch to undefined label* Step nnn (–412) Explanation: A program instruction references a program label that is not defined in the program. Either the label is missing or was mistyped when defined or in the reference. User action: Check the label definition and reference. Breakpoint at (task) program_name, step n (17) Explanation: A breakpoint was encountered before the indicated step.
  • Page 269     !" *Calibration sensor failure* Mtr n (–1106) Explanation: During calibration, the calibration sensor for the indicated motor could not be read correctly. Either the robot is blocked from moving, or a hardware error has occurred. User action: Retry the CALIBRATE command or instruction after making sure that the robot is not blocked.
  • Page 270     !" *Camera not running* (–705) Explanation: An attempt has been made to process a vision system operation when the camera is not running (line vision only). User action: Enter a VPICTURE ON command and retry the vision operation that failed.
  • Page 271     !" *Can’t create new slide bar* (–557) Explanation: An attempt has been made to create a graphic slide bar in the hori- zontal or vertical scroll bar. Slide bars should be created only in the main window, although they can appear in the title or menu bars. User action: Modify the arguments for the GSLIDE instruction to have the slide bar created within the window.
  • Page 272     !" *Can’t find calibration program file* (–426) Explanation: While processing a CALIBRATE command or instruction, the V system could not find the calibration utility program on the file CAL_UTIL.V2. User action: Restore the missing file from the V distribution disk to the direc- tory \CALIB\ on the local drive or working system disk.
