We bought a Hardinge Cobra 42 (1998 model) about a year ago as a backup machine. I'm now trying to get it setup and cant seem to get the spindle motion to activate. No alarms or errors are present. Axis Motion works fine. If I execute in MDI an "M03 S200" no motion happens, but I get a "*** fin" to popup on the bottom of the display. Someone told me that its looking for a finish signal (whatever that is). I know it is reading in the M03 because if I go to the ladder all items connected to M03 are highlighted. Same works for M04. I also can execute M13 (or M14) and it will turn the coolant on but again, no spindle movement. When I open up the electrical cabinet all drives and power units show green lights and no errors. The only difference I notice is that there is a Magnetek 505 speed controller that shows 0.0 on the digital display when machine is at idle. Lets then say a execute spindle motion at 200 rpm. At that point, it will toggle slightly between 6.9/7.0 like its trying to maintain a speed. But again, no spindle movement.
One last thing...when I go to diagnostics, all bits next to all items are "0", except for 3 items which show "1":
021 Reset Button On
024 Reset On
025 Stop Motion or Dwell
Any Ideas?? This is getting super annoying.
