I went to start a new job and got this error. Tried going through new machine set up and same error. Solution???
so I tested all the switches as indicated and they all light up as they should. cleaned the areas in front of the switches. tried to initialize and same error.
- The vacuum hose is draped over an axis so that it blocks any motion. The vacuum hose should never rest on the machine; it should be suspended over the machine.
i ensure the hose does not block the movement. however it is NOT suspended over the machine. I am typically holding the hose.
In order to initialize:
-
the homing switches have to be working — in addition to lighting up, each needs to signal as the correct switch under Active Inputs
-
each switch needs to be positioned so that it will be triggered
-
the machine needs to be able to move so as to present structure to each switch to trigger it — is the matching structure secure and in place? Can the machine actually move?
Note step-by-step what the machine does and investigate what it does not.
Normal sequence is:
- machine lifts and homes Z-axis
- machine begins moving X- and Y-axes towards the back right corner
- when a given switch triggers the machine stops moving along the matching axis
- when all axes are at the top right back corner the machine should jog to activate each swtich, then back off
It’s working again….another belt tension issue.
