Also when you press the orient spindle button in MDI, it says "running" but nothing is moving. Does anyone have any idea what I may have done wrong?
It sounds like there is much more going on with this machine than just a simple encoder belt replacement. Was this machine running prior to changing the encoder belt? If not, then you need to provide a lot more details about what is going on with the machine. Your issue seems to be parameter related, but again, this is just a guess since there are missing pieces to this puzzle.
