    Re: Mori Fanuc MSC-516 / 16M

    There are supposed to be some books with that but I can’t find them and the boss is gone for a while.
    That password got me into the ladder.
    I may button this thing up until the boss gets back.

    Re: Mori Fanuc MSC-516 / 16M

    Thanks again!
    I am really shy on manuals for this machine and the ladder is password-protected.
    I’m still poking at it ????

    E-stops all out and no e-stop showing on the screen.
    The e-stop buttons have multiple contacts so I’m going to verify with my meter.

    We had a connection go bad in our battery box.
    Fortunately, we have a backup copy of the parameters.
    There were some issues loading them from a PC so I had to load some by hand.
    Everything works...

    Re: Overcurrent-Leadwell

    P.S.
    Our 2008 V-40 has the same drives and power supply as the 2014 version, but the servo drives are connected to the PS by a few feet of 14mm wire as opposed to the newer machines direct buss.
    I...

    Re: Overcurrent-Leadwell

    @drdos- We have a Y connection here. 120 V to neutral on all legs. The old shop had Delta with a wild leg, but the machines didn't whine about it. I guess we just got lucky.

    @BIRDTOOL- YES!!!!...
  11. Re: Sherline 5400 CNC mill problem x-axis off the end

    I'm not familiar with your machine, but some of mine have a "second limit" switch that will let you jog or hand wheel out of the oh crap zone.
    A simple option, if you can get at it, is to E-stop and...

    Re: Overcurrent-Leadwell

    Thanks, Dan. That's what I think too.
    We had the power company out and everything is within spec. The lowest voltage we read was 207 at the drive power supply.
    Its rated input is 200 to 240 but the...

    The V-20 and the newer V-40 (2014) both have SV0438 (Z) INV. ABNORMAL CURRENT alarms when we rapid...
  14. Re: Kitamura Mycenter 2B Discharge resistor

    I'm guessing it has a Fanuc spindle drive. If you post the model number of the drive (not the control), I have some manuals for some of the older drives and I might be able to find something to help....

    Pallet drive alarm

    This is the same machine from my last post, a Kita 500.

    Hello fellow metal heads! This is my first post.

    I'm working on a Kitamura HX500 that has had a hard life before we bought it.
