Safety
Causes and Fixes
Note the filename (%1) and line number (%2) displayed in the alarm message. Access the file via HMI file manager or service mode (Startup > Commissioning > System Data).
Open the indicated XML file with a text editor (use HMI text editor or transfer file to service laptop). Navigate to the specified line number and examine the XML structure.
Create a backup copy of the XML file before making any modifications.
Check for common XML errors: missing closing tags (</tag>), unclosed angle brackets, unescaped special characters (&, <, >, ', "), missing quotation marks around attributes, or incorrect nesting of elements.
Correct the identified syntax error, save the file, and perform a control restart (NCK and HMI) to reload the corrected XML structure. Verify alarm clears and functionality is restored.
