Hey guys,
We tried to start up our lathe the other morning that has a Anilam 4200T control, and it comes up with a couple error messages. I have not had much experience with troubleshooting the electronics on these machines so I am a little weary of just jumping in and doing stuff. I have double checked that all the connections have not rattled off.
Symptoms -
1. Boots up fine and gets to the "homing" screen
2. Screen aspect ratio is smaller (about 3/4" unused screen on bottom, left and right)
3. Control Messages :
I/O Node(s) found do not match nodes specified as installed
DSP2-4 Motion Control Board + 0 node(s) detected
Error : spindle drive fault must reset servo's
Warning : external Hold!
4. Inside the cabinet on the X and Z boards there is only 1 red light
From what I can see the control is not communicating with any of the servo's but where do I go from here?
Thanks in advance!!
