Hi Haas experts,
Minimill 2005. SHUTTLE in FAULT because of chips in the carousel area.
Usually I clean and proceed RECOVER answering the question "is there a tool in spindle..." etc.
Only this time RECOVER says "Z axis is not in a safe position. JOG KEY Z PLUS".
I do it but nothing happens. There is a message "TOOL CLAMP" when I JOG KEY Z PLUS.
The spindle is empty, whether I put a tool in or not is the same. It seems to be ready to take a tool, it is up in Z.
The shuttle/carousel area is clean, in the right position to accept or deliver a tool, so a place holder is just under the spindle.
There is no way to JOG any axis because there is no ZERO position in X,Y,Z. Neither the POWER SETUP runs to ZEROING because it says "SHUTTLE IN FAULT.
I tried to shut ON / OFF many times. No way to get out of that loop.
Is there a way to ZERO Z axis without the POWER SETUP ?
Is it possible to push the shuttle back to its home position by hand?
Or any idea to get out of that?
Thanks for any help.
