Well, there's your sign! Doesn't sound good.

On some Fadals, theres a delta / wye relay that controls which mode the motor is in depending on RPM. Maybe it has a bad set of contacts?...

That display looks pretty strange! I had something sort of like that where my low gear was bogging down and using lots of torque and surging. Mine ended up being the gear change cylinders weren't...

Yep, my new Haas does the same thing. Complain to Haas about it. It's nice/important to see when the last time a program was modified.

Is there an easier way to check it other than removing the top cover?

Typical for most industrial electronics is less than 2 volts ac peak to peak and while I personally think that's high, that's what I have in my control documents.
Something more fitting is that most...

I'm curious, was yours a standard O-Ring, or one of the pre-formed rubber rings from Haas? I've seen both.

Take a small putty knife or thin screwdriver and pry the nozzle back and blow it out with air. The nozzle is spring loaded and chips will get in there.

A few years later, and no filter at all provided!!!

I was sure you could map a drive in Windows to the IP address of the Calmotion then just drag files over or post directly to that shared folder. I could be mistaken but I think you can. Have you...

Good idea, but then I think you would have to add a BNC to VGA adapter, then put this inline with that. Remember Fadal is using the BNC output.

They had a couple different display cards. If you had just the old monochrome CRT with black background and green letters, then you're stuck with black background and white letters. I believe the...

Thanks for the feedback.

Do you have a picture of the IPS screen and settings and the code it produced?

That would definitely do it!

If this isn't fixed yet try the Zero Memory command I believe. You have corrupt memory due to low voltage. It's in the DIAG section of the maintenance manual.

Function 5 = ZERO MEMORY
On the...

Then there is a problem. If I type DI then DS, if I rotate the spindle it will change the Spindle Orientation to 01 and stay there unless I move the spindle past the sensor, then it goes back to 00....

Try it without the M19 and see if the input is read. That way it won't fire the solenoid.

I know you said you checked but you have to separate the issue to find out if it's mechanical or electrical.
Using DS - Display switches will tell you if the CPU even see's the input from...

Old thread but just in case this ever comes up again, Yes.

You can remove your hyd. chuck, unscrew the drawtube if it doesn't clear. I prefer unscrewing it so I don't damage it or get coolant...

Did you come up with anything on your tailstock?

I have a 2005 and turn lots of 15-18" SS shafting and setting the tail stock sucks. Once I get it set, I leave the power on during the entire time...

What ended up working?

Did you get it cleared?

You most likely short the battery out for a few seconds like a cmos battery it will wipe all the memory and settings. I believe removing the cpu card then removing the RAM card from the cpu board...

Be sure to let the forum know what you found so it can help others down the road.

From the video, It looks like your spindle plunger pops in place and the VFD quits turning, but it looks like the timing is slightly off. I can hear the solenoid release like it passed the sensor.
...

There is an pneumatic plunger that locks into the divot on the spindle. You should have 80-90 psi air pressure for it to work. When it aligns with the notch in the spindle, the hall effect sensor...

go into diags and see if the orientation sensor is working. Do this by entering command DS for Display Switches. There you can see if the orientation sensor changes states. ORIENSP Switch closes...

We need to know where to start troubleshooting so did it just start doing this, or is it a new to you machine? Have you lost any settings lately?
Usually, if the spindle is turning too fast to...

Since nobody seems to know or take the time to answer, I would guess the only time tool offset are read and applied is when you tell it to with the T0101 or whatever tool is called. The reason the...
