Data specified out of range
ABB · Application Error ABB Motion Drives Error trouble shoo
What does 3 mean?
This synchronous programming error occurs when a specified data value, such as a parameter setting, falls outside its permissible operating range. An example is setting SCALEFACTOR(0) to a negative value when it must be positive. If no ONERROR event is defined, the program will terminate.
Common Causes
- Attempting to assign a negative value to a parameter that requires a positive input (e.g., SCALEFACTOR).
- Inputting a value for a parameter that exceeds its maximum or falls below its minimum allowable threshold.
- Programming errors where variables or parameters are inadvertently set to invalid ranges.
- Incorrect scaling or unit conversion leading to out-of-range data during runtime calculations.
Repair Steps & Checklist
Click steps to track your progress.
- 1
Review the line of code or parameter setting that triggered the error and identify the problematic data value.
- 2
Consult the drive manual or Mint Workbench help to determine the valid range for the specific parameter or function.
- 3
Correct the parameter or variable assignment to ensure the data falls within the acceptable range (e.g., set SCALEFACTOR to a positive value).
- 4
Implement input validation in the Mint program to prevent out-of-range values from being assigned.
