Re: PCNC1100 Spindle not turning on in software
There is a troubleshooting chart in the (most recent) 1100 manual starting on page 202 for spindle failure. But it largely does not apply, as it is troubleshooting failure of the spindle to operate in both manual and auto modes.
My only thought is that you might have a loose connection from the auto/manual switch, so it is permanently stuck in manual. This seems unlikely. With the switch in AUTO, check if the manual START/STOP controls on the control box operator's panel function (which would indicate a faulty AUTO/MAN switch).
