Siemens 840D 100137 - Tolerance not implemented

Tolerance not implemented

Siemens SINUMERIK operator message 100137: Tolerance not implemented. This is an informational message from the SINUMERIK control indicating a system status or operation result that may require operator action.

Root Cause Summary

SIEMENS alarm 100137 'Tolerance not implemented' occurs when the CNC system encounters a tolerance specification in the part program that is not supported by the current SINUMERIK configuration or software version. This typically happens with advanced tolerance features that require specific option packages or when using tolerance commands not available in the installed system variant.

Safety

  • Refer to Siemens documentation
  • Ensure qualified technician performs repairs

Causes and Fixes

  1. 1

    Check installed options

    Navigate to Diagnostics > Service > Software options and verify if tolerance packages like 'Tolerance monitoring' or 'Contour accuracy' are installed.

    Look specifically for option bits related to tolerance functions in the software configuration

  2. 2

    Review part program

    Examine the NC program around the alarm occurrence for tolerance commands like CTOL, OTOL, STOLF, or G code extensions requiring tolerance options.

    Do not modify tolerance values without understanding their impact on part quality

  3. 3

    Contact Siemens for licensing

    If tolerance functions are required, contact Siemens to purchase and install the appropriate tolerance monitoring option package for your SINUMERIK system.

DIY Feasiblemedium confidence

Call a technician if:

  • ·Software option installation required
  • ·Machine data backup/restore needed
  • ·Hardware upgrade evaluation

Prevention

  • Verify tolerance option availability before programming
  • Use tolerance commands appropriate for your SINUMERIK version
  • Regularly backup machine data configuration

Common Mistakes

  • Assuming all SINUMERIK systems support advanced tolerance functions
  • Not checking software options before implementing tolerance commands
  • Copying programs between different SINUMERIK variants without verification
