⭐⭐⭐⭐ (4/5 Stars) - Critical Safety Feature, but requires careful diagnostics.
If you are seeing on your Fanuc 30i/31i/32i or 0i-TD/TF series control, this is a serious safety warning that should not be ignored. Here is a breakdown of what this alarm means and the most likely culprits based on my experience with CNC turning centers.
This alarm specifically relates to the "Hard Stop" mechanism (often used on turning centers for bar pulling or C-axis clamping). The control has issued a command to clamp or lock the spindle/hard stop, but the system did not receive the confirmation signal (Logic "1") within the specified wait time. Essentially, the machine tried to lock, but didn't "feel" or "see" the lock happen.
