Hi Sr. First suggestion is to call Mydata's phone support. With that said... Here is some ideas of what you could check: 1. Do you have power at the XWB board connector going to the motor (xxwm connector)? 2. Do you have power coming through the bl

I believe there is a force calibration menu option in the maintenance menu. From the main screen, choose exit to maintenance to get into the maintenance menus. If you're still having force issues afterwards, you'll want to start hunting for broke

When you swapped the MOT card, did the proble move to another axis? I'm guessing no, but, wanted to clarify. If the problem did not move, you either have an x-motor problem, x-motor counter problem, or x-transducer problem as noted. Or, a cable pr

There are several things that can cause these errors. It sounds as if you have 2 problems. A (Z) problem and a theta problem. 1. Check that the Z-locks are functioning properly in the service program. Make sure that when they are un-locked they don'

The small x motor quit working.It seems that there is no voltage going to the motor. Here is what I have done so far: *Verified that the motor is good. *Check pico fuses on the backplane *Verify voltages on backplane and on big booster. *Swap mot ca

I'm randomly having some motor move errors, as well. If you swap your MOT board, and the problem continues, you're down to a couple of problems. Could be that the motor is getting ready to die on you. Could be an encoder problem. Or, could be som

Unfortunately all my tools are spring loaded. Yes I do know the tool install utility. I have been running and maintaining the 3 MyData machines for over 20 years and I never saw an error like this. I grease our tools once a month so I know that is

I talked to Mydata service (briefly) 3 times. Halfway through the 3rd call it was suggested to me that we set up a service call. Times being what they are, we are not willing to go that route yet. Thankfully we are not in dire need of this machine ri

I ended up finding that there were broken chords on the X-belt. I replaced it and all is good. Rob, Mydata is right. You can indeed end up spending lots of time and money trying to chase a transducer error. Things I would look at: 1. Lubing the X b

I'll try swaping cards and see if the problem follows the card. So far, my guess would be the motor going bad. I did change the brushes, X wagon cables and every cable that goes to the midas unit. But that didn't fix it. The problem is that to replac
