first off, you guys rock ! had two vmc's, toppers with oi-m fanuc. someone changed the batteries with the power off.
Learned on here how to reset home and clear the error alarms for xyz and was running both within an hour.
today, an excel stallion 810 vmc with o-m fanuc, wouldn't start or move, screen and all axis were froze.
Had no choice, under advisement, did the reset delete deal. I am nothing more THAN a newbie !
again,axis home position was off, errors everywhere. got the parameters back in , by hand, from a back up list and the list from the manufact. now can handle xyz around, can zero out all, almost done but the changer won't change tools.
pots will come down, changer carousel rotates, pots go up, but wont on command change.
i loaded diag as much as i could find, all param again, to make sure. Think we're missing something. think part is the small movement the head does before it changes, off of z zero. also missing a param?
comfortable loading the data, saving it, any ideas?
Again, thank you all very much, You're all great teachers !
The Less Than Newbie !
