Any chance you have a oscilloscope laying around? If you do you can pull the front off the drive with the machine powered up and we can look for the encoder signals when it is rotated by hand.

Did you ever find the answer. PG0 Fault is related to the spindle encoder. first thing to check is the encoder connector on the side of the spindle motor. with power off pull the plug and reseat it....
You have a crack for the server? I may be will to try it. what version of software?
it is on the back side of the table Y axis. if you can move the y axis forward unbolt and slide the rear y axis cover back under the column.
Are you seeing Y+ and Y- at the same time and the...
some of the errors, you could have lost your configuration. what version of software does your machine have.
Bloke is on the money with the DCIO back plain. You are getting low voltage on the IO boards. Cut the orange connector off and solder the wires direct to the pins on the board connector. I have...
If the machine was set up correctly by the tech. There is a restore partition on that hard drive. there should be a usb stick in the back of the machine called i think it is called restore. there...
I seem to think it was 007-0022-013 but not real for sure
Screen on the right is for a Dual Screen Max 4 Console.
He may have been thinking all VMX42's were dual screen.
Send the old one in for repair. Call precision zone.
That is if you are in the united states.
Has anyone checked the belt between the servo motor and the rotary table. pull that cover off the front of the C axis, the belt should be tight and take some finger pressure to move..if the the...
Ditto what bloke said. except I did not know the gear oil ISO.
Is is a easy job. chain style vice-grips work great for getting the bottom off where the seal and o-ring go.

Are you service by a dealer or by Hurco?
What state are you in?
What version of winmax does your machine have on it. If your not for sure hit the input button on the console . it should...

Di you figure it out? If not post a picture of the oil levels you are looking at. I can tell you how to fill it and realign the tool change arm. Is the machine running ultimax software or...
Green0 Sorry to hear about your problems.
Clamping issue with the C axis during light cuts or both A and C. Is the error a clamp error or out of position error? We had one that did it with the C...
Did you get the consoles for them?
Yep that is what it looks like with a peak777 CPU board.

What are you guys using for video cards in the ultimax systems? we can hardly find the Jaton PCI 228 in the states.
Well here is what you are missing
Matrix MX4 motion board-9000.00 No longer sold
Can buss controller - not sure of the price. over 1000.00
CPU board -2375.00
Video card -680.00
floppy drive...
Cool deal.
post pictures of the control cabinet and the rack. I can tell you what is missing and what you will need for the VMX. post the control consoles as well.
You can run them off a phase...
It could be done if the computer works. If it is one of the old ones that has CPU back plane, I forget what mother board it is. It may have a dead battery that may or may not be replaceable...
For the VMX30 if the cage is there you can get w winmax upgrade kit for it for around 9000-10000 dollars, comes with all the cards except a IOIF card.
For the if no rack or even with the rack it...
Where are you located, I have never seen that many problems out of two new machines. They are 2018 models right?
Yes it increases resolution of the motor,Gives you a bit of a buffer only 5.08 encoder counts to .0001 of a movement, but that is better than a 1-1 resolution.
But machine precision, nothing...
Here is a link to the servo software SERVOsoft Standard V1.0.0.76
It really only good for adjusting parameters and saving them. Don't think any of the tuning graphs worked.
Can not get it to work...
I will give 2.1.4 a try tonight. Thanks guys.
I was able to fix the commander speed in the novakon.hal I think it is so strange that it does
Not work for you.
I will check spindle rpm tonight. ...
Interesting, we both have servo machines I wonder why the different travel directions. In the INI file I changed the direction sign for SCALE to flip my travel directions. had to change...
Make sure it is not setting on a limit switch when you go to home the machine. I have not figured out why yet but I had to put a large home offset in the z axis because if Z calibrated it first it...
Have a look at these, The spindle direction output have been inverted so it goes the correct direction, added a line in the novakon.hal so when a program is running it displays the spindle rpm.
...
Jason.
I ran in to that, can not remember what it was. I will remark the and change some things on the hal and INI files I am using now and post them.
I have my machine set up with out the gear...
