Siemens alarm 12160: Channel %1 block %2 range of values exceeded

What it means

A numeric value lies outside the permissible range for its address or variable - for example an index above an array bound or a parameter beyond its limit. The interpreter rejects the whole block. Check units, scaling and limits of the offending parameter.

Likely causes

• Value entered with wrong decimal place or unit
• Array index or D/H number above configured maximum
• Computed expression overflowing the target variable range
