    Failure setting servo gain

    When we power up our Fadal VMC15, it dose a cold start ok but then when we try to move an axis in MDI we get the error message “failure setting servo gain”. We can move all three axis in hand wheel mode. I can’t find anything on this in the manuals. It is a 1994 machine, 88HS, DC servos.

    This would normally be either a corrupt survey or a bad controller card.
