OK it looks like a foo paa on my part. The axis was initialized. Servo motors are on holding position. It is as if the control is waiting for a command from something else. I can't get the axis to move with the manual controls; jog, hand wheel, rapid. Then I tried pressing "p" and "cancel" soft buttons during control power up and I was able to get them to move.
Moving forward I have this no response problem come up periodically. The "p" & "cancel" doesn't always work. I might have a button problem. However I was running a test program via DNC trying to verify my post settings and communication settings, I stopped the program with feed hold and cancel button, and now can't get the same program to run again. Atleast the axis all respond to manual input commands. Just can't get a program to run. One note is that all programs run DNC. There is no running from memory.
I just wonder if these "not running" problems are all related? I have never run a Fanuc before. This control seems really sensitive to any faults. Is there a global reset command or something that can be pushed to clear the faults? Can a faulty key board cause these issues?
I have a wiring diagram but it is not quite the same as my machine. No relay logic drawings. I have attached a picture of the same diagnostics screen as before. However now 710 and 711 have changed state. Is this normal considering I can't run DNC right now?
Thanks for your help Guhl!
