If you encounter an unfamiliar Fanuc alarm code, it's important to diagnose it quickly based on the situation. In this blog post, I will provide you with a list of possible solutions.
Using the Teach Pendant to Display Alarms
Your Fanuc robot comes equipped with built-in help files and documentation accessible right from the teach pendant. The DIAG/HELP button allow you to access this information.
On the Teach Pendant: Split the screen via SHIFT+DISP. Then press SHIFT+DIAG/HELP to display the active alarm. Next, click on DIAG to access relevant documentation.
For non-active alarms, navigate to the Alarm Log History screen (Menu > Alarm) then press F3-HIST.
As you can see in the screenshot, there isn't much information about the alarm. For further details, you must refer to the manuals.
