Hello, I was the guy asking about doorway size for a Philips CSM84. Well, we cut the doorway using the best info we could get, and managed to get the machine inside with only a few scratches on the paint! Still no door, hopefully the fabricator will get that done tomorrow and we can get rid of the plywood!
I wonder if there is someone who knows the older CSM84 who would be willing to give me some help learning how to program the machine?
The guy who sold it to me scrapped out a CSM66 and sent me part of that machine, such as the main control box, saying it was totally compatible. Well, it looks nothing like what is in the CSM84, and the manuals he sent also seem to be for a different vintage machine. The operating manual seems close, the service manual is so different as to be totally useless.
The machine I have is a type PA130620, the operating manual says CSM 66/84/84V III, and also has a line that reads PA 1306/40/50/60/61. So, I'm guessing this manual applies to PA130640 and higher, and my machine is a PA130620.
I have the seller looking for the right manuals, which he is sure he has.
But, in the meantime, I'm trying to figure out how to program it, and I suspect the manuals are only a slight complication.
First, in the Data IN, Component menu, I get a line like this :
NO FDR TYPE SET-NO POS.DATA 1 8 M TAPE 19 AUTO-SET
If I understand this right, SET-NO is the feeder slot, and I'd like to change this to slot 1. But, I can't figure out how to do that. AUTO-SET should make the machine figure out the coordinats of that feeder, without having to teach it.
In the Data-In, PCB, Mount menu, I have no idea how to teach the coords. I can see the X,Y coords in the lower left of the screen, but it always puts 0,0 in the coords for that part. There must be a way it can grab the coords from the current location and put it in for the part's coords.
I can't figure out how to plug the air-driven feeder air lines into the air manifold. There are little metal fittings that look like tiny air chuck fittings, but they won't plug into the ports on the manifold. I've tried everything I could think of, pulling and pushing on the black plastic ring on the manifold ports, etc. I don't want to break anything.
I'd greatly appreciate if anyone can help me with these things. We can continue this offline, unless it would be helpful to others to archive this.
Thanks,
Jon
