Dear Rob, Thank you for your quick response! There were Z locks on the Midas head area, 2 little solenoids like you mentioned. Previously I had the first error code (F-AXIS-C/9) and after fiddling around, randomly manual unlock the Z locks it came

Thanks! I just needed a response like that. I will do all that, and if it's still an issue, I'll change the x wagon encoder right? There are three encoders on the x wagon though? The white one on the x carriage, the white one on the x belt drive mo

Hey All. I figured it out. It turns out that the problem was simply a loose coupler on the x wagon motor transducer. I had only checked one screw in the past but the other screw was apparently loose as well.

I forgot to mention that I've measured and adjusted the cog play on the x axis and so it is within range, if that applies.

I'm having a problem with my Mydata My9 pick and place. Basically whenever I try to run the placement calibration program or try to have the machine find fiducials, or basically anything with precision, the machine displays a X MOT motor timeout erro

Hi Phil, Thanks I will contact Mydata to see about a possible software upgrade.

Start with fundamentals: Disconnect, clean and reconnect all inner connections, bulk heads, ext. Disconnect, reconnect all connections at the controller. Check wiring harness for conductivity. Clean everything appropriately, lube ways, balls screws

Cant put a finger on it being an encoder that was just a single possibility. You can always hook up a scope to the encoder and see if they are working appropriately. I would look through the machine's utilities and see if there is some debug or more

Hi, Hans, I would have suggested swapping the MOT card out to see if that fixes the issue (or, changing the MOT card with another one to isolate the card), but, it sounds like you've already done that. I'm surprised that MyData would point you towa

My focus has moved to the X motor itself. The one common factor in this paricular problem has been the time of year. The day was a particularly hot day with high humidity. Even though there is a "Xfan" connection on the PIAB board I do not believe th
