So I first got to use this machine about 3 years ago. It worked okay but was a little glitchy at times, but it is getting worse.
It will be moving along on the Y-axis and jam and stop. Although the file says it is still running. So it will get off by 12 inches or so on the Y-axis. It also has a tendency to keep right on moving when you are moving it with the keypad and then stop. You have to hit the e-stop to get it to stop.
Here are the things I have tried to no avail.
-turned off the automatic updates to the computer
-grounded the router and dust hood and Y-Z car
-tested the motor
-tested the control cable
-tested the gekko card
-updated the firmware
-reducing the cutting speed (and it will do it when I am not cutting anything)
-tried looking at the comm rates (may need a little assistance here)
It is a PRS-S control box. It is running software 3.8.14 and firmware 176
Any help would be great.
Thanks in advance.
