RESOLVED I adjusted the "Minimum Board Width" in the Board Handling Configuration to resolve this issue. I set the lane width to a larger value which did not hit the front limit and measured the difference between the actual lane width and the set l

I'm setting up a product for the first time on my GSM after I completed debugging some other issues. The previous owners had the PWC axis disabled and the axis motor disconnected, so I re-connected it and enabled it and now it homes and moves. When I

Well, we finally got the machine to power up and fully boot, but now we are having issues with zeroing the axes. X, Y and Theta zero OK, and the board conveyor runs, but when it tries to zero the PWC, the rail moves to the rear of the machine, hits

I am trying to locate procedure for PWC calibration/adjustment on GSM1/2 machines (after moving feeder plate), but can't find it in the manuals. I would appreciate if somebody can give me a hint... - Deni

I'm bringing a GSM-1 machine at a university back to operational condition. I have a project created and I'm experiencing that when it's loaded the PWC goes to a location that is about two inches too narrow. When the PWC is manually told to go to a

Sorry, I did not check the forum for a few days. Slot 12 controller is in charge for PWC and Beam1 Head1 (front) theta and Z axes. Which sw. version is installed on your machine?

Since rear feeder bank can be in three different positions, machine must know which one it is. Check in Machine Setup, Parameters - Feeders (see attached image). It that's set wrong, machine will try to reach position out of range and will hit end sw

All ready resolved. Looks like there was a loose cable on one of the modules, which would not allow it to command the low voltage servo module to run the motor in reverse.

I have a Universal GSM. Does anyone know the maximum width, between the conveyor rails, that a PCB can be. The GSM had an "Axis PWC error", which I think is down to the board width being too wide. This time I was able to halve the board width from 2

I've been working to bring a Universal GSM-1 back to operational readiness at a university. I have lots of pnp experience but little on the GSM. The software is at 3.2.3. When I try to manually "zero the board" in the PWC menu I get only a black s
