Hello,

I'm new here, I've been watching the forum for awhile and have noticed you guys being referred to from cnczone as well. I'm hoping someone here can help. Thanks in advance.

I Went to run our CNC Plasma table today (C&G Taurus Table w/ HT2000 Hypertherm Torch) and the crazy thing just went all over the table. So I started trouble shooting it...

  • Checked serial connections
  • dumped memory
  • loaded a proven program
  • confirmed machine was nuts
  • double check encoders/resolvers on rack
  • checked "std shapes" at burny control
  • "std shapes" run fine
  • manual controls / jogs run fine
  • checked sys data for serial com setting, good
  • posted test program to machine
  • saved same program back to PC


... And that's where I'm stumped. I'm comparing two instances of a post saved from the Burny to the PC. In theory the should be EXACTLY the same line for line. They are not. One Burny ---> PC version of the post has about 35 lines. Then next time we did this (same program) it all the sudden has about 25 lines. The original post as saved by SigmaNest had about 25 lines.

We made *no* comm changes or program changes between saving these posts back to the PC. The post with more lines was the one that went nutzo at the machine. This has been happening with multiple posts this morning. Has anyone else had this happen???

It's working correctly again now, but we haven't changed anything, that's what bothers me. Thanks.
