Ev, This error could be caused by any number of problems. Is there an error message in the message window before hardware initiation error? If so, what is it? A failure in any axis (x,y,z,c,theta,y-wagon,tray-wagon) could cause your symptom. Paul

Dear SMT Specialists Had anyone encountered GSM ADvantis zeroing failure problem? The x-axis is idle while the y-axis is waiting to be activated. My initial guess is either Axis control board or machine configuration conflicts. How to fix it? any le

Well, we finally got the machine to power up and fully boot, but now we are having issues with zeroing the axes. X, Y and Theta zero OK, and the board conveyor runs, but when it tries to zero the PWC, the rail moves to the rear of the machine, hits

Thanks for the inquiry. We used MCD (Motion Control Dia) tool to verify if that is caused by VRM board. No respond(I means the related axis was off) was detected. we swapped that board to other machine, the VRM card was good.... X axis was stopped, t

Yes I can move x2 axis, and check the world/zero with pulses, and it does not lose the pulses.

Apparently the machine is now completing initialization but when attempting to zero axis' it has a time-out waiting to change modes. Machine status page shows an error reading "initialization failure for motion control board."

We swapped the Y1 and Y2 pc800 controllers with no change. We swapped out the UIMC III-I cards from another machine with no change. VRM amps all look OK, no errors. The machine moves the head both in the x and y directions during the zeroing attemp

without knowing your machine, I guess the axis does not find the zero pulse. You may have to re-place the incremental or linear encoder for the X-axis. Some vendors use proximity switches for a zero pulse which could be defective. If the axis stops i

TDK RX-11 giving Absolute Encoder Backup Error (237-100) at start up. The machine resets pressing the button but gives X and Y axis hardware error while doing zero position. The X and Y axis does not even jog manually. I followed the manual instructi

could be the linear encoder giving problem or dirty, maybe try using some cleaner and insert slightly into the yellow ribbon and spray along the x axis, try not to insert to deep and come in contact with the linear hidden inside. After reboot and zer
