Sweet. I dug up an old keyboard that should work. Will give it a try this weekend whe I get back to the machine. The Dallas clock on the MB looks like the culprit though. Ill...

Stan,
I wish I could help you with the hard drive update, but I havnt gone there yet. My Cen 6 Bios real time clock is going dead, but I do not know how to navigate the Bios settings to record them...

I need to replace the real time clock in my Milltronics mill, but I can not get into the 486 computer's Bios at this point to record the original Bios settings. Does anyone have the Bios settings...

Yes, my motors do not have tach's. They have 2000 count encoders. I think the problem is I'm trying to install a "current/torque" system on drives that used "velocity/loop" system Like the drawing...

Guhl,
Now we are confused. What should be going on with these wires. Currently the TSB line is measuring the same as the VCMD. Twisting together the TSA TSB Doesn't make things work.
Thank you...

Guhl
Weve got the encoder working and can see the steps as you manually rotate the original servo motor on the new touch screen interface. Galil is the manufacturer of the new "brains" for this...

Noooo...
The lack of output on the amplifier card is still present. No red LEDS, just two green LEDs on. IF we throw the emergency stop, the redlight associated with it does light. Guhl, do you...

Yes, High voltage side is powered and untouched from a running system, thanks . Anyone else have vintage (1984) fanuc info ???

guhl,
Weve tried twisting the YPrdy paired wires together, but still no power out of the board to the servo. Is there another trick?

Hi all, I'm trying to upgrade a 3mc to galil, I have power to the amplifier card (a20b-1000-0220) with the led's Prdy and Vccrdy ON. But I cant get the card to output to the motor.Can anyone decipher...

Psychomill,
Im a fool. Found the tool offset lists right next to the work offset lists...adjusted a few drill cycle parameters and changed the start params and we're making chips with great...

Psychomill, Thanks!
We noticed some G61.1 in the previous owners code (blessed with at least one option I guess!)
We noticed a wierd thing with the display. We test ran a program and the display...

Hey,
Just installed a used Mazak 414 with Mitsu M32B. Is anyone familiar with the G5 high speed machining mode on this machine? Im used to G3 on the old Fanucs. Would like to go 70+IPM, do I need...

Everyone can stop looking...
The battery for the encoder (secretly mountd in the motor case of the rotary table) had gone 100% flat. A new 3.6V lithium battery from Radio shack later and the...

Hi,
Just purchased a 2002 Kitigawa rotary indexer with Macmini controller. Trying to set it up for manual control initially and I cant get past the r400 Mzero un-set-up error. Is there something...

Dan,
G97 didnt change anything re: operation. We checked the Params again and they are good... I yanked the "compact" DSR and am taking it to the local Fujitsu Fanuc reapair shop... Im hoping they...

Dan,
Thank You for your input! We will check out the G97 input. While we were floundering around we found the param 55 was incorrect, and when we fixed that, the machine now thinks everything is...

Johndeer,
You are the man! heres the addy: [email protected]
Sure hope this does it!

checked the params again and 49, 45 and 50 were "wrong" so I changed them... No difference though. No alarms, MDI turns the spindle on and off with and M3 or M4, but it wont recognize an S number....

johndeer,
Thank you for the reply. I checked tha params again and found 45, 49 and 50 to be different from our posted set, so I changed them to the "correct" values. Still no spindle speed...

I posted last time in the fanuc area, not noticing the special 5/5T zone...
Special...My Ikegai FX20N (1978) failed during a cycle due to bad brushes on the traverse motor. I replaced the brushes,...

Thanks for the reply!
We checked the Parameters against our cheat sheet again and they all matched up. Weve got the orignal manual (well earmarked) and the parameters vs. what they do decoder ring...

Hmmm,
Its a 1978 Ikegai Fujitsu Fanuc FX20N 5T... My apologies! (biz owner posting vs. someone who knows...) My machinist thinks we may not have re-initialized the parameters properly, although...

Hey!
Ive been ghosting this site (whenever a machine breaks down) for about 8 years... My Ikegai FX20 (Fanuc 6) was spinning out parts in its usual flawless manner when it stopped in mid program. ...
