Here's what ticks me off by the OEM's extorting registration fees out of customers and refusing to support the used equipment market. You won't get the OEM's to admit it but a large part of their profits are obtained by service and support includin

I'd take a look at the power supply for the failed axis and see if it's still working. I've also seen encoders fail on motors but it's rare in my experience. Usually it's a power issue.

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
