Hi everyone, I have a problem with the 630 VME vision system: during startup machine, an error popup appears saying "Did not receive request to load machine model within timeout period. Possible machine error condition exists. Do you want to continu

Probably similar cost to find one on ebay or a used machine broker vs. repair unless the fault is obvious from visual inspection. I would be interested to know if anyone does service cards from these older VME chassis though.

The axis drive cards can be swapped, so if you switch the second and third in the VME, and the problem moves to another axis, there's your answer.

No, each card in LP servo rack drives only one motor. But there is an servo cotnroller board (actually 3 of them) in the VME rack (where all computers are). Third one from the left(slot13) controls head2 theta and z axis. That might be a cause of you

Deni, it is a 630 and there is text in the window, just no image of the component or anything else that is brought to the camera. It doesn't time out at all, it just moves the way it would when inspecting a component on test mode.

There's not many ways of doing it on the cheap except... Buy a second hand universal GSM1 with VME 630 vision, 0.5 mil per pixel camera & some expensive ceramic nozzles for the 0201's. This will be quite slow & the software quite awkward but lookin

I checked and it is 630vme. I'll check input line filters as mentioned in next post.
