Ok that is good news!

It's a pretty basic machine and i know what cables i have messed with so i guess there must be something wrong there.

I guess the main question i had was if the machine...

Geeez this was not what i was expecting when changing some cables...

So if i'm understanding this right. even if i fix the cause that set the machine in interlock something in the ladder must be...

Hi.

Ok! i only have the printed manual and i have saved the parameters. that's all I have..

What can i do?

What is the reason for the interlock? is it likely that i do have some wiring...

As far as i know it has never had doors, just a plastic apron the kept the coolant and chips on the inside.

And even if it did have a door when new, i don't understand why it worked 1 month ago...

Hoping that i will get this running soon, but if hell frezes over i will go the conversion route to LinuxCNC.

And since i live in Sweden it would be quite pricey to ship 1,5t mill over seas...

Ok, i did some checks,

Machine lock is OFF
No doors on this machine
rapid, jog and feed override is above 0%
Checked the wiring again from the spindle encoder to the connector and it is the...

Tried powering up with Estop active and holding OT release while holding the power on key turned to on position. could not see any difference, tried a few different combinations while powered on but...

The green power light is solid on, makes no difference when pushing the over travel release button, what does happen is if i'm in Estop mode and the not ready is flashing on the screen, when holding...

I tested holding down LQP + CAN buttons like below image, but couldn't tell any difference in procedure. was holding them pressed from turning on main breaker to after start and releasing estop.

Forgot to mention, Diagnostics 0142 is all zeros and does not change when jogging.

Thank you very much for helping out!

I've checked Diagnostics 0128 and they are all zeros.
And diagnostics 0129 does not change when hitting the different axis keys in jog mode.

Hi!

During October i purchased a 1990-ish Cortini BF400 VMC with Fanuc OM-B controller.

Only 750 hours and in...

Ok. i would be interesting to see how the signal works from the original TM02 controller if the valve is constant active when the chuck is closed. You mentioned that it should hold long enough to...

Hi,

I have something that i find quite strange on my 120P, if i activate either open or close solenoid valve for the chuck there is a considerable amount of air leaking from the silencers on the...

Ok thank you for explaining, i read something about quadrature but did not get what it was about, i will start with the original encoder and if i feel i could use the quadrature functionality i will...

Ok good news then i will keep the encoder!

Yeah if you have an Ac motor it is much easier :) lucky you! :p

Thanks for your help.

Ok, Linuxcnc with Mesa card looks like it would handle 2048 ppr so i should be ok then? if max pulses is the problem i should be able to switch to a disc with 1 or 4 slots?

the spindle motor...

Hi!

As topic say, i'm doing a retrofit on an Emcoturn 120P (new ac spindle motor, new open-loop vfd, new closed-loop steppers, linuxCnc etc.)

but i have a question i can't figure out by reading...
