F(x) uses large values and may not clamp output [ERROR 034]

F(x) Module 1,01,02 Block 1001 uses large spec values: output value may be unexpectedly extreme

This message indicates the F(X): Function Generator [FC1] uses large specification values in some of the Y entries (i.e. S3, S5, S7, S9, S11, and/or S13). These values are used and the result is often not what people expect.

Possible problems:

• Output is not clamped (held at a constant value for increasing input values) as is often expected
• The mathematically calculated function generates an output value that can be wrong

Example:

--Scanning drawing ABC.CAD
F(x) Module 1,01,31 Block 22150 uses large spec values: 
output value may be unexpectedly extreme

Check that the function is not intended to clamp the output, for example, as this message usually means that the output approaches the input value as the inputs get larger. This may not be what you want.

This message is generated when Y is not equal to 0 and the absolute value of any X or Y is >=4.0E06.

This message is likely to show an error in the system configuration. It should be reviewed. The issue raised may be in unused logic or graphics, or have other realities that make it a non-issue.
