Have you installed EMI filters on power supply power lines?
How about installing resistors on the step/direction signal terminals as per the Teknic manual?
I can answer the question why it would not run a file, but would execute axis moves from the VCP arrows. LAN cable did not have a good connection. Below are 2 snippits from the log file showing...
That would be incorrect. After the unit was returned and examined it was the ethernet port on the controller had an intermittent issue. It was actually bent sideways and was causing thousands (yes...
