Hi,
I have a problem with the system FANUC M6 after attached powering on the monitor a message displays - FIFO NOT READY. Error code does not appear, etc. I measured all the voltages on the motherboard and expansion cards – they are OKThe machine documentation does not contain any information about this problem and that message. Now, I have a question and I must ask for help. How can I diagnose this fault and where I need to look for it?

In the picture you see a message from the screen.

I add the numbers on the system motherboard: AI6B-1000-0030/06C

looks like a motherboard fault. specifically the fifo chips are not working

[monika13361]

If this is a problem how to solve it?

[fordav11]

repair motherboard or replace it with new/refurbished motherboard

[monika13361]

another solution to this problem is not there?

[fordav11]

sure. send me the air fare and I'll fly out tomorrow and repair it for you

seriously though, you have an electronics fault. it requires someone who has knowledge in repairing CNC-specific electronics. Only other way for non-tech person to fix it is to replace the entire faulty unit.

Ok Thx
So, Do you ever met with this problem?

[fordav11]

yes, once, but it was not the same system as yours. I replaced the surface mounted FIFO IC's
