Cyber Optics Error Codes

Cyber Optics Error Codes

The following is a list of common error codes which are either reported by BPWin or appear in the BlackBox files.

Error code 5

According to the Cyber documentation, this error code states that communication from the Cyber interface controller to the laser has been interrupted.
This usually means that the coax cable is loose, check the connections to the Cyberoptics Laser attached to the head of the handler and also to the Cyberoptics Controller found behind the lower right panel at the front of the machine.


Error code 64

According to the Cyber documentation, this error code states verbatim: Laser align did not detect a component. Check for component presence and check component position. Check the Alignment Offset value. Could also be a corrupted package file. Delete and create a new file from scratch.
Use the Cyberview utility and manually move the device into the laser and ensure that the waveform changes.

Error code 67

(See also error code 93. )
Check J2 DIPS on the SCM board. SW8 may have been accidentally knocked to the down position. 
If 4000 series, may need new theta cable D04241PD. 
If 3000 series, check the WCAB31LAENC cable, especially the crimp pins.
If 3000 series, check the motherboard for a missing jumper.
Possible weak vacuum, device slipping on the nozzle.

Error code 70

According to the Cyber documentation, this error code states verbatim:

"Algorithm Error" - "The firmware detected a state that should never happen for the highest current error level. Verify that another error is not being hidden by error code mapping for lower error levels; make sure Laser Align is running at the highest error level the firmware version will support. If the problem persists, call CyberOptics for assistance."

BPWin sets the error code reporting for the Cyber-controller to the highest level so that ALL errors will be reported by the controller. The error is occurring inside of the controller which could be caused, in my opinion, by a faulty power supply or a faulty Cyber interface controller.

Error code 90

According to the Cyber documentation, this error code states verbatim:

"Too Few Frames" - "This is a firmware failure. Check component orientation. If the problem persists, contact CyberOptics for assistance."

The controller takes snapshots of the device as it is rotating. Each snapshot is considered a frame of information. The controller determines how many frames it will capture to determine the orientation of the device, etc...
In my opinion, this could possibly be caused because the power to the controller is interrupted.

The BpWin code now represents the Cyber error code documentation. When a critical error occurs, the automated programming system will be stopped so that the problem can be corrected. Allowing the app to continue by ignoring the critical error code will result in undefined behavior. It may work or it may not work.

Together, we need to determine the root cause of the problems above instead of placing 'bandages' over them. If the hardware is the cause then replace the offending hardware. If a software is a cause then reproduce the problem consistently to help engineering implement the appropriate fix.

Error code 93

Symptom: BPWin handler will teach a location, but will fail when running the job.
The unshielded coax cable picks up noise from the motor power cable in the e-chain and delivers a dirty signal to the Cyber driver board. Slowing Theta will prove this.

Solution: Install 3 jumpers on the Cyber driver board to activate pull-up resistors.
If error 93 and 67 in conjunction, check for dirty Z encoder.
If 4000 series, needs new theta cable D04241PD.

Error code 95

According to the Cyber documentation, this error code states verbatim: No cutoff 2. This is a firmware failure. Contact Cyberoptics for assistance
Things to check - Package dimensions especially the alignment offset. Camera alignment. Z-bellows, Z encoder, Z motion control system. 

Error code 98

According to the Cyber documentation, this error code states verbatim: Angle limit exceeded. The angle exceeded the specified angle limit before a minimum was detected. Check pre-rotation, angle limit, and/or component height.
Things to check - Package dimensions especially alignment offset. Camera alignment. Z-bellows, Z encoder, Z motion control system. Theta motion control system. You can also get this error if the PNP nozzle to laser align camera is not coplanar, if the laser align camera is dirty, or if the incorrect nozzle is used.
If 4000 series, may need new theta cable D04241PD.
