Clear the memory again and try to input by handheld the modcodes 1 by 1 and see when the problem happens. You can input a number then press home and home. Sounds to me like a number is incorrect but its hard to tell. Are you sure the file that you ar

Thanks Bob, I will change the z-rod just to make sure. It is a tall part read at 180. The nozzle height bugs me because we have 3 machines and the first one has a nozzle height of 238 while the 2 others around 200. I am thinking this parameter may ad

If its a tall part and you are trying to scan it lower than 200 or so...you can have this problem (limit error). Thinking of things to look at.....Is your z-rod spring sticking? Push up on it and it should spring back with NO hesitation...if it does.

It sounds like your dispenser has a problem....The default mod code for 56 is 0 (this should be off). Thats why when you cleared the mod codes the machine was able to home. When you reload your saved mod codes it is probably set to 1. The machine wil

If I have to guess then I would say the machine is first picking up a larger nozzle to pick up this part.....the nozzle is not seating on the z-rod correctly and causing a problem. Check to make sure the nozzle is being mounted correctly. You may als

Well, the error occurs with Mod Code 56 (dispenser enable). Head # 1 has installed this accessory, but we use it very little and it wasn't this time. I probed setting 0,1,2 and 3. I downloaded Mod Codes from controller to assembler, then the error b

I would check the following: 1. Make sure the head can move in all axis including z and theta by physically moving each. 2. Check the voltage from the main power supply which is located in the middle of the machine on the top of the main board asse

Pneumatic power down error does go back to MMX12. MM's info is communicated to NM (in PC enclosure) via 100 way cable. Depending on software version, the "Pneumatic Power Down" error may be the default (initial) error generated with bad connection /

We had an issue where a vision cable got cut and a few wires were exposed and possibly shorted. We fixed the cable and since then have had numerous errors with the last one being pneumatic power down. We have air to the machine and have checked the p

It is a communications failure between the CPU and the Cognex card. Does comms initiate between the 2 cards (flashing green on both)? or does it immediately come up red LED on Cognex? Have you reseated the CPU board as well as the Cognex? Is this a s
