Sinumerik Alarm 16740 Channel %1 block %2 no geometry axis programmed

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

Definitions:
No geometry axis was programmed for tapping (G33) or for rigid tapping (G331, G332). The geometry axis is, however, essential if an interpolation parameter has been specified. Example: N100 G33 Z400 K2 ; thread lead 2mm, thread end Z=400 mm N200 SPOS=0 ; position spindle in axis mode N201 G90 G331 Z-50 K-2 ; tapping to Z=-50, counter clockwise N202 G332 Z5 ; retraction, direction reversal automatic N203 S500 M03 ; spindle again in spindle mode

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

Remedy:
Specify geometry axis and corresponding interpolation parameters.

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