OK, so have still had issues with this, but that machine had not been needed a whole lot for a while, so it didn't git the grease. However, my troubles had progressed the other day. My Slave alarm had worsened to the point that my CRT was black, with a couple of other codes on it.
972 NMI Occured on other module
Slot 01
926 FSSB Alarm <sub
and
BEF-21
I broke down and called Fanuc as I expected that I was going to be needing a board for the control, but the voice there said that if the X2/Z2 amp is bad, that it could end up throwing this code. 50/50 chance whether the amp or the daughter board(s) in the control.
So, after a few hours of dinking with the amps and whatnot, having had the cabinet doors open and the A/C turned off, and no resolution, we got Fanuc scheduled for 2 days out.
After this - the CRT was still up, and so I decided to see if it would stay up long enough to get the 4 axi's that I had had the amps out - homed. Yep, got that all done...
Well, I guess I'll work towards setting up the next job. Got that all done as well, and then proceeded to run a few parts yet that evening.
Over supper the first evening, and over night that night, 2wice - the Slave alarm came back up. 1 axis once, and maybe 2 axi's the other time? A quick power cycle clears them, and I told Fanuc that maybe we need to hold off on that service call for now?
Here we are a week later, and it has not hiccuped again since.
The doors are still open, and the A/C is still off. (we are having a very comfortable summer - never mind what you see on TV)
Running parts right this minute.
So maybe I need to turn the A/C up a smidge?
Never heard of it being too cold in the cabinet?
