 Error messages

Refer to chapter S.05.X Error messages for more information about error messages which are not described
here. When contacting Sultex Limited, always mention all error messages.

Error Index Description

E 009 06 Malfunction on open shed signal line ( X130 / 26 ) Check function and wiring.
E 012 04 Angle transmitter is turning in the wrong direction, possible as a result of pressure by
heavy lift of jacquard machine.

E 017 At WM start-up or creep speed the WM does not register any change in the angle
transmitter values. Possible cause: mechanical blocking by the JM.
Safety circuit not closed (X130 / 19, 20), check functioning and wiring.

M 018 02 / 07 Parameter block is being transmitted WM <---> JM so that the WM is not ready to
start
E 031 03 Programmed speed cannot be reached. It may be necessary to
change motor V-belt pulley.
M 053 Emergency stop circuit not closed, ( x130 / 1, 2 ), check functioning and
wiring.

E 066 It may be necessary to adjust setting generic term 6 F16 if JM is weaving with heavy
E 076 lift.

T 084 Correction for generic term 2 F10 with block length monitoring = " ON " ( generic term
2 F11 ).
E 086 No creep speed drive (timeout).
M 094 02 While a parameter record is being transmitted via JM the WM notes that an angle
value is already occupied. The queried value is displayed and must be modified by
2°.

E 106 The shed closure signal of the Stäubli dobby is outside ± 5% of the value set in ge-
neric term 10 F04. Check setting, function and wiring.

M 108 A fixed dobbyweave was programmed in generic term 10 F07. The WM shuts off
after 2000 picks, since weaving is not permitted in this mode (colour and weave not
synchronized).
E 132 09 Generic term 11 F08 is set at 2, but no full beat-up has taken place in the special
function pattern within the last 7 picks.

8 42.3 E

Page 12 G 6200 e 21.09.99

Error Index Description
E 197 Although the bit for fringes (track 6) is not set in the current pick of the special func-
tion, an empty pick ought to be inserted according to the colour pattern.
M 198 05,06,11 Weaving with density, pile heights or speed pattern but without a colour pattern is not
allowed. (Exception; generic term 8 F04 = 8 mono with special functions).

10 In generic term 9 F01, set weft density pattern = "OFF" (enter density in generic term
11 F46, or add density pattern to JM pattern).
11 Set either F85 = "OFF" in generic term 4 or F48 = 0 in generic term 4.
E 221 00 Depending on WM (error on JAS board)
01--06 Controller on JAS board signals an error. Check serial interface, if necessary
replace JAS board).

07--10 Eprom or RAM error (replace JAS board).

11--14 JAS<-->CPU communication problems (replace JAS board).

E 222 JM / NJM or WM display error

00 Input 0 = JM ready, not yet at WM. Check hardware configuration (connector X130,
pins 8 and 25).

01 Input 1 = open shed, the JM checks match between WM shed angle and the open
shed angle from its own data. In the tolerance of ± 20˚ cannot be maintained, this
error message appears.
02 The JM has sent the WM an unknown VDI telegram. Serial interface defective, incor-
rect data processing by the JM.
03 Mains failure on JM; sending the WM an initialization during weaving operations.
04 WM received the starting block but does not know whether the data are being trans-
mitted in 4 or 6 bytes (JM initializing error).

05 JM not yet ready

06-09,13 WM reports message error fromJM.

10 WM receives incorrect online telegrams for more than 10 picks (possibly program
error or data processing on the JM).

11,12 JM reports a cut-off zone e.g. forward or reverse locked. The information regarding
the JM cut-off zones stored in the WM do not tally with the reality.

G 6200 e 21.09.99 Page 13

 Error Index Description
E 223 Die WM displays the error reported by the JM.

01 WM and JM angles are not synchronized, difference more than ± 20˚. Check in gene-
ric term 10 F04 or readjust JM sensors.
02 JM reports that no pattern has been loaded.
03 JM reports timeout in the cut-off zone (less strain on hook magnets), repeat start-up.

04 The JM detected values outside the range (0.0 - 317.1 picks/cm) in the density
pattern ---> correct design.

21-254 Internal JM error numbers.

E 224 Errors in data exchange.
00,01 The JM is sending an incorrect protocol, check data record with a VDI interface
03-06 tester.
08-10
12,13
02 Data exchange possible only with the WM stopped.

07 The data sent do not match the value of the dataset received.
11 JM program reset during a data exchange.
M 225 The guaranteed minimum weft density is 6 picks/cm. The message appears in the
event of an input below this value but disappears approx. 10 seconds after start-
up.
E 226 00-11 The weaving data transferred serially from the JM to the WM are checked for correct-
ness and the exact cause displayed.
T 231 JM signalises end of piece length.
