any alarm starting with a "9" is a user alarm. Someone somewhere made this alarm come up on your robot. It can be no/low air pressure or missing arc established signal when mig or tig welding.
What is the text that comes up with this alarm?
-
The text in PP is "Missing arc generation confirm".

Okay, so now we know your robot is Mig welding. This alarm comes up when the robot tries to strike an arc and does not get the signal from the weld power source saying the arc is established. This an be cause by lots of things.
Does the robot strike an arc? If not you have to look at the weld circuit.
If there is an arc, it can be the welder is not sending the arc established signal, try swapping the weld power source with one you know works.
If you know the arc established signal from the welder is good, there is a cable that runs from the weld power source to the controller. Unless someone has been working on or around this cable it is probably not the problem but it is some thing to look at.
The arc established signal comes into the controller and may go through a weld interface (PWF, HUWI, UWI, ROB5000) depending on the vintage of the robot and the power source you have. The problem can be on any of these interface boards. Once again try swapping the interface with one you know works.
The arc established signal goes into the analog card. You can try swapping the analog card with one you know works. -
Thank you for your information.
Our robot do arc for 1 sec and after that we have this alarm. can you give me a document about connection and signals between controller and power source? -
need to know what power source.

We have MOTOWELD-S350. From your information i think this alarm is for ARCON signal that send and receive between controller and power source. is it right or there are another matter?
-
The ARCO signal is an output from the robot that tells the welder to turn on. From what you said you are getting this signal because the robot does strike an arc for a second before giving you the alarm. The signal you may be missing is arc established. This is an output from the welder to an input on the robot to say yes the arc is established.
I'm sorry I don't remember the input address for arc established on a DX200. Do you have another robot you can swap the analog card?

Thanks
No there aren't another robot. can you tell me what is the port number and which board?
