operation by the operating panel or the teach pendant or in external
operation by the PLC.
When an error, such as undefined program, occurs at the start of the
program only in external operation.
Caution: The signal will not be output when an error, such as a
program input error occurs in manual operation, except when
a servo error occurs in manual operation. For further
information, see "ERROR CODE TABLES."
