Thank you for the reply Spiker!
This one was actually the board. The board removed the axis disconnect alarms.
The parameters have been loaded several times. Even the original from Hardine for...

Al,
I have been through every single parameter I can access. I have different list from when the control was built from Fanuc, to Hardinge's build 900 parameter, previous owner hand wrote back up,...

Well, I think he got them all. I do know he went through them when he was loading them. Noticed on the servo settings page that all the faulted axis's had alarm 1 bit 1 and alarm 2 bit 7. Don't...

I have alarms;
416 Servo Alarm : X Axis Disconect
426 Servo Alarm : Z Axis Disconect
476 Servo Alarm : 7 Axis Disconect (live tooling)

Brief history.

UPDATE
After some time with a Hardinge service tech here, I am a lot closer than what I was. The memory was so scrambled that it wouldn't let the screen come on. After a dump and paramaeters put...

Specifically CS-8220-03, CS-8220-C, CS-8220-02

They are for my Conquest 42 I am having problems with.

Thank you!

I am having a similar problem with my Conquest 42, nothing. Let me know if you find any schematics for it. I need to start troubleshooting mine. Right now, I don't know where to go...

Sting,
Did you get the parameters you needed. I have a file with them for mine. Just posted the story on that.... C-axis, OT-C, Live tools, sub spindle ect.
PM me your email if you still need.

Hi,
I just got a conquest 42. CRT display was know to be bad. Can see burnt coils on the back of the CRT. Replaced with a LCD retrofit.
Just got power to it and powered it up. First time display...

So, I am going to look at a used Taig CNC mill tomorrow morning.
It is a 2027 model.
Spindle hours is less than 100, just aluminum was cut.
Is this a decent mill to do small projects? I am a...

Thank you for the suggestions! Still haven't got the lathe, but hope to soon.

Just called that number, and got a lady at BobCad. She will give you a message from me Friday, If you could call me sometime before that please. 720-209-0142
Much appreciated,

Ok, Al,

I am available about any time also. 720-209-0142
Thanks!

Hi Al,
You seem very familiar with this. I suppose you should be ;)
I have a few question of capability. Sales guys don't really know. Could I chat with you for a few minutes?
I'll PM you my...

Thank you Al,
That is about what I was figuring. Not a quick and easy job, but doable.

So if I get BobCad, then you come out with the mill turn in the next version, what does it cost to upgrade?...

Hi,
I am looking at a Hardinge Conquest 42 with live tooling, sub spindle, and full C-axis.

Would Bobcad work well with this? Looks like it would do the X&Z fine, but could I get it to control...

Delete Please. Posted in wrong section. Can't figure out how to delete.
Thanks!

Anyone?
Not looking to dump $10k plus on Partmaker. Although it looks like it may be the best. Just can't justify or afford it when I am putting under $20k in the machine...

Did you end up trying it? How is it if you did?

Thanks!

Hey Guys,
New here, newer to CNC. Have done a little on Mastercam with Haas and Prototrak. Not as much lathe programming though.
I am looking at purchasing a Hardinge Conquest 42 with a Fanuc O-T...

Does anyone have any experience with this lathe?
There is one for sale near me, and I am thinking about looking at it a little closer.
I have a few more pictures available if needed.

Thank you...
