Siemens 14017 - Block syntax error when calling the subroutine via M function

When calling M code subroutine with parameter transfer, an illegal syntax was detected: - Address extension not programmed as a constant. - M function value not programmed as a constant. Note: If a parameter transfer has been programmed via MD10718 $MN_M_NO_FCT_CYCLE_PAR for an M function replacement, the following restriction applies to this M function: both the address extension and the M function value must be programmed for replacement as constants Control reaction: Correction block is reorganized. Interface signals are set. Alarm display.

Siemens 14017 - Block syntax error when calling the subroutine via M function

Block syntax error when calling the subroutine via M function

When calling M code subroutine with parameter transfer, an illegal syntax was detected: - Address extension not programmed as a constant. - M function value not programmed as a constant. Note: If a parameter transfer has been programmed via MD10718 $MN_M_NO_FCT_CYCLE_PAR for an M function replacement, the following restriction applies to this M function: both the address extension and the M function value must be programmed for replacement as constants Control reaction: Correction block is reorganized. Interface signals are set. Alarm display.

Safety

  • Only qualified personnel should diagnose and clear control alarms; follow the machine builder's safety procedures and lockout/tagout where hardware work is required.

Common Causes

  • When calling M code subroutine with parameter transfer, an illegal syntax was detected: - Address extension not programmed as a constant.
  • - M function value not programmed as a constant.
  • Note: If a parameter transfer has been programmed via MD10718 $MN_M_NO_FCT_CYCLE_PAR for an M function replacement, the following restriction applies to this M function: both the address extension and the M function value must be programmed for replacement as constants

Troubleshooting Steps

  1. 1Change the programming of the M function.
  2. 2Clear alarm with NC START or RESET key and continue the program
