Siemens 840D 62310 - Channel block: The max. number of characters per line is limited

Channel block: The max. number of characters per line is limited

Alarm triggered by following cycles: CYCLE105. The maximum number of characters per line has been limited to 200 characters per line. Remedy: --

Safety

  • Refer to Siemens documentation
  • Ensure qualified technician performs repairs

Common Causes

  • NC program line exceeds 200 character limit, often due to long variable names or complex expressions in CYCLE105
  • Concatenated strings or comments embedded within program blocks without line breaks
  • Manual code entry or post-processor output creating excessively long single lines
  • Machine parameter settings restricting line length to less than actual program content

Troubleshooting Steps

  1. 1Review the NC program at the indicated block number and verify line character count does not exceed 200 characters
  2. 2Break long program lines into multiple shorter lines using appropriate line breaks and continuation statements
  3. 3Check post-processor settings if program was generated CAM software to ensure line length compliance
  4. 4Verify machine parameters related to input buffer and line parsing have not been modified from factory defaults
  5. 5Edit CYCLE105 calls to use shorter variable names or separate complex expressions into multiple blocks
