Safety
Causes and Fixes
Press the RECALL alarm softkey to acknowledge and clear the message from the alarm display.
Verify with the operator whether the transmission cancellation was intentional or accidental.
If cancellation was accidental, restart the data transfer operation from the beginning using the Program Manager or DNC interface.
Check the integrity of any partially transferred program files and delete incomplete programs if necessary.
Incomplete programs may cause execution errors or crashes if run. Always verify program completeness before execution.
