The sheet slips away from the pinch rollers during the cutting process

Make sure the sheet is parallel 
with the grit roller.

If the front edge of the sheet you are working with is at an angle, cut off the odd-shaped 
part to make it straight, then align it so that it is parallel with the grit roller.

If the sheet is fed for a long distance, the sheet will be less likely to slip out of 
alignment if the pinch rollers are moved inward slightly (5 to 25 mm).
When a roll sheet is loaded, use the display menu “AREA” function to feed a sheet by 
the length to be used (ensure a small margin by setting a length that is about 0.1 m 
longer than the cutting data), make sure the pinch rollers are still in contact with the 
sheet (not off the left or right edges, or on the edges), and then cut.
If the sheet is pulled while cutting it is more likely that sheet misalignment and motor 
errors will occur.

11-2  Error messages

An error message will appear if incoming data has any of the errors listed in table. Since the error is shown in the display for
informational purposes, the data transfer continues and you are allowed to perform the next operation.
To get the error message to go away, press the 

ENTER

 key.

Note that even though the error message is no longer displayed after you press thee 

ENTER

 key, the PNC-1860/1410/1210 will retain

in memory the fact that the error occurred. To clear the error internally, you can give the default instruction, IN; or the error code
output instruction, OE. (The error can be cleared by turning the power off.)

The error messages and their meanings are as follows:

Error message

Meaning

Appears if an instruction that the PNC-1860/1410/1210 cannot interpret is sent. This 
error is generated if an instruction from the “mode2” set is sent when the unit has been set 
to recognize “mode1,” or viceversa. Change the setting for the recognized instruction set, 
using the control panel, and this error should no longer occur.

Appears if the number of parameters differs from the permissible number.

Appears if the value specified for a parameter is out of the permissible range.

Appears if an unusable character is specified.

Appears if an output instruction is sent from the computer during execution of a previous 
output instruction. More precisely, there is a certain amount of delay between the moment 
an output instruction is given and the instant actual output begins. This error message 
appears if the new output request arrives during this delay time. (The delay time can be set 
using the [ESC].M instruction.)

Appears if a device control instruction that the PNC-1860/1410/1210 cannot interpret is 
sent.

Appears if an invalid parameter has been specified for a device control instruction.

Appears if the value for a device control instruction parameter exceeds the permissible 
limit.

Appears if the number of parameters for a device control instruction is more than that 
permissible.

Appears if a framing error, parity error, or overrun error occurs at the time of data 
reception.(There is a problem with one of these settings: Baud Rate, Parity, Stop Bits, or 
Data Bits. The protocol settings for the PNC-1860/1410/1210 must be made correctly in 
order to match the settings your computer is set to use.)

Appears if the I/O buffer has overflowed.(There is a problem with the connecting cable, or 
the settings for Handshaking. Make sure you are using a cable appropriate for the 
computer being used. Also, check that the setting for Handshaking is correct.)

Appears if a communication error other than “Er10” through “Er16”, one uninterpretable 
by the PNC-1860/1410/1210, occurs during data communications.
