Measuring axis (rotary axis 1 or 2) not in basic or intended position

What does 61429 mean?

This alarm indicates that a rotary measuring axis is not in its expected basic or intended position during measurement operations. Error codes 'A' and 'B' relate to rotary axis 1 and 2 not being in basic position on the first measurement. Error codes 'C' and 'D' indicate that rotary axis 1 or 2 are not in their intended positions during subsequent measurements. This can cause inaccurate measurements, leading to incorrect machining outcomes and potential scrap parts.
