Contact George Castonguay at PPM. He is a Jedi when it comes to these machines. In fact, since you just got it, a good investment would be to have George come in and go through the machine and get it calibrated. 603-895-5112 They also sell parts

When I try to load a board in our MPM UP2000 HiE I get the following error "Z axis software limit". The Z axis will move up and down freely, I re-calibrated it and reprogrammed the board and the error continues. Has anyone else run into this issue an

Check/reseat all connections on axis driver card and from driver card to step motor. On older MpM's it is common to get a bad connection on the connector for axis driver power and blow components on your driver board. Reseating these connectors mig

Some software versions won't allow a brightness change with the next button. You should do a histogram test. Place a board on the worknest, then a smooth white card on top of that. Then jog the camera over the card. Raise the Z-axis to it's softwa

Thanks for the suggestions! It ended up being that a wire on the amplifier card in the lower drawer came loose and was making intermittent contact. Tightened all the wires down and the problem has gone away. Now we have a new problem. We had to repla

Thank you Michal, The MPM error messages are ambiguous to say the least and one axis not zeroing was a possible cause. But I put here what I learned again and again with this machine: when something doesn't work start by checking the fuses, all of

Hi ELC, I'm curious about your comment of calibrating the Z axis. Our UP2000 has been moved around a few times and we've never done this nor noticed a need to. Could you please share some more information and even perhaps the calibration procedure?

I got a 3000 that is acting crazy. After a print, the board is unclamped and the Z-axis lowers. It continues to lower until it trips the limit switch. It is suppposed to move in the Y-axis to line up with the tracks while lowering in the Z-axis.
