Manufacturer wording — WARN CRC Start-Via too close(L:%d^5)

FANUC MOTN-198 (“WARN CRC Start-Via too close(L:…)”): Circular Start and Via points are too close to each other. First check: Re-teach the points.

Updated 2026-09-17 · LogrobotLM reference

Circular Start and Via points are too close to each other.

Remedy

Re-teach the points. Ideally circular points should be evenly spaced. Otherwise a small change in one point can drastically change the programmed circle.
