I’m getting a couple errors when I try to complete a machine start on our Brown & Sharp. This stared happening last night when our CMM operator was trying to clear a wrist error. When he tried to complete a Machine Start after clearing the error
The machine would give him these 2 faults.
TR_INIT,COM-CTL V24.00 XCEL SCAN – I have no idea what this means.
TR_FG032, Jogbox Fault – This fault occurs when I am prompted by PC DMIS to conduct a Machine Start and I press the Machine Start Button on the Jogbox. The machine does not stay on when I release the Start Machine button on the
Job box. If I hold down the Machine Start button I can get the controller to stay on so the Power and Ready lights are on. At this point when I try to home the machine the nothing happens.
We have a Renishawe PHC 10-2 Controller, not sure of the make of the job box. I tried calibrating the jog box by pressing all 3 axis buttons and the enable button but this did not work.
You can try to disassemble the jog box, to check if the stop button is correctly connected. Sometimes, when it falls, it can be disconnected, so an error appears...
