The AccuGrade System generates error and warning messages when action is required by the operator. The error and warning messages are also written to the "Program Log.txt" file.
When the display is started, the software checks in order to ensure that the correct option key for the software has been entered. If the key is not found, a message appears. If this occurs, do one of the following:
- Refer to Systems Operation, "Software Support Option" for more information.
- Consult your supervisor.
General Error And Warning Messages
"A system error has occurred. The application has been shut down for safety."
During start-up, one or more of the software components of the system failed to start. Contact your supervisor.
The following errors and messages apply to all AccuGrade Systems.
- AccuGrade Systems automatically check the configured blade width against the blade width that was measured by the two GPS receivers. If the two blade widths vary by more than 100 mm (4 inches) this error message is shown.
- The check ensures that the configured blade width matches the blade width of the machine. An error may indicate that a incorrect machine settings file has been loaded into the display. An error may also indicate that the GPS receiver positions on the machine have changed, for example, if the receiver masts have been damaged and are not in the original position.
- Confirm the correct machine settings file is loaded. Check your GPS receivers and receiver mounts for any signs of damage and confirm they are securely mounted. Contact your supervisor in order to measure and enter the machine dimensions again.
Note: The results of this check are recorded in the Program Log file.
The avoidance zone may have been designed with the wrong units of measurement. Contact your supervisor.
"File Error While Loading ..."
The design avoidance zone file, background plan file, or site map file cannot load because of an error in the file. This means that background information that is contained in this file will not appear in the plan view. As the files do not contain information on vertical guidance, you can continue.
For avoidance zones or a design background plan, try to load the design again. For a site map file, try removing the data card and then reinserting the data card.
If this still fails, contact your supervisor in order to check that the DXF file does not contain any errors. Import the DXF file into the AccuGrade Office Software.
The AccuGrade System is attempting to log information onto the data card, but there is no data card inserted in the data card slot. Insert a data card, or make sure that the card is inserted correctly. Then continue with the current task.
