Siemens 840D 75608 - Channel RESU: NC memory limit reached, RAM type
Alarm 75608 indicates that the SRAM buffer memory (RAM type 1) or system memory allocation for the cc_resu.mpf return travel file has been exhausted during NC program execution. This prevents the NCK from storing complete return travel information, which limits the system's ability to recover axis positions after interruption or emergency stop.

Channel RESU: NC memory limit reached, RAM type
Siemens SINUMERIK alarm 75608: Channel RESU: NC memory limit reached, RAM type. This alarm indicates a fault or error condition on the SINUMERIK 840D control. Refer to the Siemens SINUMERIK alarm documentation for the complete description and remedy.
Root Cause Summary
Alarm 75608 indicates that the SRAM buffer memory (RAM type 1) or system memory allocation for the cc_resu.mpf return travel file has been exhausted during NC program execution. This prevents the NCK from storing complete return travel information, which limits the system's ability to recover axis positions after interruption or emergency stop.
Safety
Causes and Fixes
Access Siemens HMI menu: Diagnosis → Memory Management → SRAM Usage. Verify current buffer utilization percentage and compare against MD20100 (Memory allocation mode) setting.
Do not modify memory parameters while NC program is running.
Check active NC program for excessive block count using Program → List Program → Block Counter. Programs exceeding 50,000 blocks with multi-axis interpolation are primary candidates. Consider splitting into subprograms or reducing interpolation resolution.
Verify MD20101 (Buffer Memory Size) allocation. If set below 4 MB, increase to 6-8 MB range via Siemens Service menu → Parameters → Machine Data, cycle number 20101. Requires control system restart.
Increasing SRAM allocation reduces memory available for other NCK functions.
Clear expired cc_resu.mpf residual files: Access NCK file system via Service → File System → /memory/cc_resu.mpf. Delete outdated entries to reclaim SRAM space.
