First we get a "transducers out of sync" error which can be corrected when we go to the "reinitialize hardware" option in the Utilities menu. However, when it fails to initialize the error is "Xfan not working".

There is a fan on the upper rear of the machine that has to be running for the machine to initialize. i suggest lifting open the top and check the operation of the cooling fans.

The Xmotor tests just confirms that the hardware did not initialize.....unless I am looking at the wrong menu. I have external fans on the booster board and the X motor on the back of the machine as well as one blowing directly into the computer box

Seasons Greetings to all. Here's hoping for a great 2011. I have a Mydata TP11-UFP that won't initialize on start up. Hence we can't run production. Has anyone seen this problem? Do you have any suggestions.

Hi Ev, We are running a TP9-2 which should be very similar to your TP11-UFP. I need a little more information to be able to help. Is it failing on the initialize hardware step? Or is it a different point in the start up sequence that it fails? Wha

We have gotten various errors that I have had to troubleshoot over the years. However, I have not seen an "Xfan not working" error. I do not know what would be causing that. Sorry.

Checked that out but all fans are running. It seems to be a heat issue. I was able to get it going the next time I started a shift.

First I would confirm that both of your X-motors and transducers are working through the service menu. After that start looking at the big power booster on the back of the machine.

Thanks for this detail. The X wagon responds as per the instructions here so I'll give the cables a good inspection.
