Siemens 2195 - Axis high-speed punching/nibbling not possible via link

Axis high-speed punching/nibbling not possible via link

An attempt was made to activate high-speed nibbling or punching for an axis programmed on a different NCU than the drive Control reaction: Mode group not ready. Channel not ready. NC Start disable in this channel. Interface signals are set. Alarm display. NC Stop on alarm. Channel not ready.

Root Cause Summary

This alarm occurs when high-speed nibbling or punching is attempted for an axis on a different NCU than the drive. Fix by ensuring the axis and drive are on the same NCU or modifying the program to avoid this operation.

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.

Causes and Fixes

  1. 1

    SAFETY: Stop all operations and lock out machine

    Ensure machine is in safe state before any diagnostics. Follow LOTO procedures.

  2. 2

    Locate the error block

    Check the alarm message for the specific line and channel/axis causing the issue.

  3. 3

    Verify NCU assignment (technician recommended)

    Have qualified personnel confirm the axis and drive NCU configuration. Do not modify without proper training.

  4. 4

    Adjust program syntax only

    Modify the G-code to avoid high-speed operations for affected axes. Do not change hardware configuration without technician.

Service Recommendedmedium confidence

Call a technician if:

  • ·Before making any NCU configuration changes
  • ·If unfamiliar with multi-channel Siemens systems
  • ·If the alarm persists despite correct syntax
  • ·Before modifying machine configuration parameters

Prevention

  • Verify axis-drive NCU mapping before programming high-speed operations
  • Use simulation to catch configuration mismatches early

Common Mistakes

  • Overlooking NCU assignments in multi-channel setups
  • Misinterpreting the alarm as a hardware issue
