HEIDENHAIN 230-0235 - Positioning of axis was stopped due to reconfiguration.
Alarm 230-0235 occurs when the TNC system attempts to reconfigure axis parameters while the axis is still in motion or positioned. This safety mechanism prevents parameter changes that could cause unpredictable axis behavior or damage.
230-0235
HEIDENHAIN 230-0235 - Positioning of axis was stopped due to reconfiguration.
Positioning of axis was stopped due to reconfiguration.
Axis motion was halted because a reconfiguration was attempted while the axis was moving. Parameters cannot be changed during active axis motion.
Root Cause Summary
Alarm 230-0235 occurs when the TNC system attempts to reconfigure axis parameters while the axis is still in motion or positioned. This safety mechanism prevents parameter changes that could cause unpredictable axis behavior or damage.
Safety
- Refer to Heidenhain service manual
- Ensure qualified technician performs repairs
Causes and Fixes
- 1
Stop all axis motion
Press STOP key and wait for all axes to come to complete standstill. Check axis position display shows stable values.
Do not attempt parameter changes while any axis is moving
- 2
Reset alarm and check axis status
Press CE key to clear alarm. Navigate to position display and verify all axes show 'STOP' status, not 'MOVE' or 'POS'.
Use Ctrl+A to display detailed axis status information
- 3
Retry parameter modification
Access MOD function and attempt parameter change again. Ensure no NC program is running and machine is in proper operating mode.
Switch to Manual mode before making critical parameter changes
Call a technician if:
- ·PLC programming modifications required
- ·Repeated alarms after following all steps
- ·Suspected hardware encoder issues
Prevention
- Always stop all axis motion before parameter changes
- Use Manual mode for parameter modifications
- Implement proper PLC handshaking for automated parameter changes
- Document parameter change procedures
Common Mistakes
- Attempting parameter changes during program execution
- Ignoring spindle rotation status
- Not waiting for complete axis standstill
- Modifying parameters with active feed override
