Yeah, hopefully the jumper does it. I will need the diagram or "holes". I looked all over in every book, diagram, manual, forum, called - emailed emco...prayed for divine guidance and still could not find it. Had a meeting tonight and this has bothered me so much, I went back in, just getting in at 10:30 p.m.. I think the problem started before this though.
I had been troubleshooting the machine, asked a student to check the jumper. I said "check that wire there", he said "OK",, I said what holes are the wires going into, and he said "this wire? as he held it up for me..... Couldn't get mad.. he was looking sicker than Iwas when we both realized the mistake, I just said ..."Well things happen, guess we move on from here...."
I had a problem with power surges from another machine on the same line as well, checked all the fuses on the boards on the operator side of the machine in the lower cabinet, the wiring side. and four "green" fuses on the power supply box in the upper cabinet on the back side of the cabinet - the fanuc side. Other fuses? More in here I should check? I recall booting this machine up a couple of weeks ago though, long after the surges,,,,,, maybe another surge here with the ice and such though.
One side of the e-stop goes to a small panel on the operator panel. The other side....?
Is there also a "switch" for the bar feeder on the cover door that shuts things down? I recall something like this, but think it acted more like a "door switch" rather than an e-stop.
I am planning to go in after a trip tomorrow - going in in the late evening after the trip. Back all day Monday. Any help appreciated!!! The wiring diagrams are all in german, are little "snippets" of the control, and very hard to navigate in a 8 1/2 x 10 book.
The machine is amazing though, and the control a dream. It is also a foundation for the adult CNC Class I will be starting next week, though the time frame for its implementation is a few weeks off from here. I was just booting it up to set up a sample program for the class. Runs like "day One" still, and probably has less than a years worth of "real time" on it, as good as any new machine!!!!!
Thanks all the world!!!!!!!
