Sinumerik Alarm 12700 Channel %1 block %2 contour definition programming not allowed as modal sub program is active


Sinumerik Alarm 12700 Channel %1 block %2 contour definition programming not allowed as modal sub program is active

Parameters:
%1 = Channel number
%2 = Block number, label

Definitions:
In the external language mode, a block is programmed with contour definition and a modal cycle is active at the same time. Because of unclear address assignment (e.g. R = radius for contour definition or return plane for drilling cycle) contour definition programming must not be used when a modal cycle is active.

Reactions:
– Alarm display.
– Interface signals are set.
– Correction block

Remedy:
Modify part program.

Program Continuation:
Clear alarm with NC START or RESET key and continue the program.
