12331

Cannot read the variable

Fanuc · R-30iA R-30iB Controller

What does 12331 mean?

An attempt to read a KAREL program variable from an opened file failed. This IO_STATUS error indicates an issue during the variable reading process, possibly due to file corruption or incorrect data type matching. The program will abort if the file_id is invalid.

Common Causes

  • The file is not properly opened, or opened without read permissions.
  • The format of the variable data in the file is incompatible with the specified KAREL read operation or variable type.
  • The file_id used does not correspond to a valid opened file.

Repair Steps & Checklist

Click steps to track your progress.

  1. 1

    Verify the file_id corresponds to a correctly opened file with explicit read permissions.

  2. 2

    Ensure the KAREL variable type declared for reading matches the data stored in the file.

  3. 3

    Use the KAREL command READ file_id(cr) to clear any existing IO_STATUS error condition.
