Yesterday, my Quad IVc was on, but not running. There was a power fluctuation. I immediately got a motor err #5. I checked all the doors were closed, tried to home / reset the machine, and then turned it off and back on. Neither breaker was trip

That's good info for making sure the motor is good before plugging in and possibly over-current another stepper drive. Do you happen to have pin-outs for the DB15 on the drive board, pot settings and current limit of this drive? We keep several ste

Z axis seems to move as it should, the flag that goes through the C shaped sensor is not broken. I have gotten it to stay on everytime i start it up now (I did NOT change anything, just unplugged it for awhile, then plugged it back in an flipped the

I have a Quad QSV-1. When I was teaching the fiducials, an error came up on the screen. ABNORMAL PROGRAM TERMINATION came up. It might have read something different but this was close. It then closed out of the quad program and went to the window
