P0100 ERROR- Illegal Input Data for Seam tracking Arc welding program

  • Hello All,

    I created an Arc welding program for E series controller with Laser point seam searching. The point sense seems to work good but for some reason I am getting an P0100 error- Illegal input data error, I am not sure where to search the right data being set to the controller for


    SET_ARC_W2JOBNO 1= 101 # Job condition 1 for indupt data 101,


    Can someone help me where to check the data in the Controller

  • Your TOOL variable name is too long (>15 characters) but wouldn't attribute to the error.


    SETCONDW1 and SETCONDW2 can be found in Aux 1401 Weld Conditions.


    Not 100% sure on your error during the load though, the error is pointing to the below explanation:



    What E controller is it and do you have up to date firmware loaded?

    Check out Aux 0804 and post the screenshot and I can check your current revisions?

  • Hello Kwakisaki,

    Thanks for the reply, I found out the issue. It is because I set wrong job number for SET_ARC_W2JOB 1.


    I used the READ_ARC_WxJOBNO command to read the parameters for a specific job number.


    I came to know that the 101 job number was not assigned .

  • Not too sure what you mean about READ_ARC_WxJOBNO command as it doesn't exist as a command and isn't in your code snippet you provided.


    But if you've sorted it, then that's the important thing.

    Thanks for letting us know you've resolved it.
