Hello folks,
I'll do my best to communicate the issue we're having. I'm not the most versed in the electrical system of our machine, but I ~am~ the one closest to a computer at the moment! Which means I'm drafted.
Background: Currently building a heavily modified Lasersaur, with almost entirely guts, as we weren't happy with the electronics they offered. Most hardware is from MisumiUsa, and most electronics are purchased though LightObject. Using an AWC-708cPlus as a controller, and 80w and 150w tubes, power supply, and chiller from Sinjoe Laser.
Frame assembly is finished (my department). Alignment and test firing had begun when we started noticing a frequent, reoccurring issue, which is why I'm here today. On firing, several things happen in quick succession:
1) Gantry speeds quickly towards Zero if anywhere else
2) Machine Zeros itself
3) Machine runs program and begins to fire/pulse.
..... and this is where the controller usually resets 4/5 times. Occasionally it will decide to run, and does so just fine.
We are, today, going through and checking individual wired connections, hoping to find an easily-tightened culprit. However, it's been asked that I post here in case folks have experienced something similar, and may be able to point us in the right directly.
Thanks ahead of time, guys!
