1. DESCRIPTION
This machine has the following two types of alarms and displays them
by different methods. These alarms are described on the pages that
follow.
Machine alarms: Alarms and warnings caused by the operation of the
component parts and safety devices of the machine
Executor alarms: Alarms related to regular-shaped hole macro
commands
The machine alarms come in two types: alarms that stop the operation
of the machine and warnings that do not stop the operation of the
machine.
NOTE
O For the alarm numbers that appear on the MESSAGE display but not
described in this manual, refer to the following manuals attached to the
machine:
Alarm numbers 4xxx: Maintenance manual of Fanuc Laser C Series
Other alarm numbers: Maintenance manual of Fanuc Series 160i-Model B
O Some optional units have their own alarms. For these alarms, refer to the
operation manuals of such optional units.
2. MACHINE ALARMS
When a machine alarm occurs, the ALARM light on the NC control
panel illuminates, and the machine comes to a temporary stop or total
stop. Or the WARNING light flashes, and the machine continues to
operate. The description of each machine alarm can be checked on
the MESSAGE display.
The machine alarms occur in two types. One type allows the machine
to resume the operation once the cause of the alarm is removed, while
the other type calls for the NC unit to be reset.
When a machine alarm of the latter type occurs, remedy its cause,
return the cursor to the beginning of the program, and retry the laser
cutting operation.
No.

4. ALARM DETAILS
4-1. Details of machine alarm No. 2507
(INTERLOCKZ) and No. 2527 (SENSING
ALARM), and NC alarm
(OVERTRAVELZ)
The Z-axis tracking sensor may be unable to properly follow the
material in the cases described below. As a result, the machine alarm
No. 2507 (INTERLOCKZ), the machine alarm No. 2527 (SENSING
ALARM), or cutting failure may occur.
The machine alarm No. 2507 (INTERLOCKZ) occurs when the Z-axis
moves beyond the travel range in the minus direction as the sensor
follows the material.
4-1-1. CUTTING NEAR MATERIAL EDGE AND NEAR ALREADY

CUT EDGE
When cutting near the material edge as shown below, the distance from
the edge must be at least 10 mm {0.4 in.}.
When the distance from the material edge is short, the response of the
sensor is small. Consequently, the material is judged to be positioned
further than it actually is, and the nozzle gap is decreased. When the
nozzle gap varies so much as to cause a cutting problem or alarm,
press and illuminate the TRACE OFF button to cancel the tracing
feature and cut the material without using the sensor.

39
4-1-2. CUTTING FROM MATERIAL EDGE (NARROW STRIPS, ETC.)

When cutting is started or ended outside the material edge as shown
below, locate the start or end point at 1 mm {0.04 in.} or less from the
material edge. When the distance from the material edge is short, the
response of the sensor is small. Consequently, the material is judged
to be positioned further than it actually is, and the nozzle gap is
decreased. When the nozzle gap varies so much as to cause a
cutting problem or alarm or when the sensor strikes against the material
edge, press and illuminate the TRACE OFF button to cancel the tracing

NOTE
O In Clean Cut, Aluminum Cut, EZ Cut, or other cutting modes with a narrow
nozzle gap, cutting cannot be started from the material edge.
4-1-3. CUTTING OR PASSING OVER ALREADY CUT PORTION

When cutting or passing over an already cut portion as shown below,
the response of the sensor is small. Consequently, the material is
judged to be positioned further than it actually is, and the nozzle gap is
decreased. When the nozzle gap varies so much as to cause a
cutting problem or alarm or when the sensor strikes against an already
cut material edge, press and illuminate the TRACE OFF button to
cancel the tracing feature and cut the material without using the sensor.

4-1-4. CLEARANCE IN CUTTING END POSITION

When cutting with a clearance at the end point as shown below, make
the end point shorter than the approach point.
When the hole diameter is 15 mm {0.59 in.} or larger and the end point
is located apart, the laser beam enters deep into the already cut portion.
In this case, the response of the sensor is small. Consequently, the
material is judged to be positioned further than it actually is, and the
nozzle gap is decreased. When the nozzle gap varies so much as to
cause a cutting problem or alarm or when the sensor strikes against an
already cut material edge, press and illuminate the TRACE OFF button
to cancel the tracing feature and cut the material without using the
sensor.
END POINT PIERCE POINT
APPROACH POINT
4-1-5. STEP AROUND CUTTING AREA

When there is a step around the cutting area as shown below, the
nozzle gap varies. This variation of the nozzle gap changes with the
height H and the distance L.
When the nozzle gap varies so much as to cause a cutting problem,
press and illuminate the TRACE OFF button to cancel the tracing
41
4-1-6. OCCURRENCE OF PLASMA DURING CUTTING

When plasma occurs during cutting, the electrostatic capacitance-type
sensor becomes unstable in its detection function.
When a strong flash (of bluish white light) occurs to cause the Z-axis to
move unstably, produce an alarm, or touch the material, press and
illuminate the TRACE OFF button to cancel the tracing feature and cut
the material without using the sensor.
4-1-7. CUTTING INCLINED SURFACE

Cut an inclined surface at one of the speeds described below.
A higher cutting speed may produce a poor cut or bring the sensor into
contact with the material. The inclined surface cannot be cut if its
angle of gradient is greater than 10.
Angle of gradient
5
10
Maximum cutting speed

5000 mm/min (for nozzle gap of 1.5 mm)
196.9 ipm (for nozzle gap of 0.059 in.)
3000 mm/min (for nozzle gap of 1.5 mm)
118.1 ipm (for nozzle gap of 0.059 in.)
4-1-8. CUTTING BOWED OR VIBRATING MATERIAL

When the material is extremely bowed or when the material is 1 mm
{0.04 in.} or thinner and vibrates at its edge under the action of axis
travel or assist gas, an alarm is likely to occur.
When an alarm occurs, prepare jigs to fix the material, and cut the
material using the jigs. If an alarm still occurs despite the use of the
jigs, press and illuminate the TRACE OFF button to cancel the tracing
