MINOR ERROR AT END-OF-SCAN DETECTED

Allen-Bradley · MicroLogix 1400 Programmable Controllers

What does 0020 mean?

A minor fault bit (any of bits 0-7) in status file S:5 was set at the end of a program scan. This is a recoverable fault, indicating a minor issue that doesn't halt the controller immediately but should be addressed to prevent potential operational problems.

Common Causes

  • Instruction logic encountered a minor error condition (e.g., math overflow, division by zero, invalid data conversion).
  • Data manipulation or calculation resulted in a minor fault condition not severe enough for a major fault.
  • Configuration error in specific instructions that trigger minor errors.
