Rye Quantum First Start... Drive Fault

[finski84]

This could be a simple mistake within Alphacam.

I always make a rectangle first point x0 y0 second point 2438.4 (you can put the basic math in this box and alpha cam will input the data like so: 96*25.4) y:48*25.4.
I actually have a 96"x48" MDF scratch board on the bed hence the sizes.

Now setting up this box will always dictate to me my working area for the bed, I have a couple of times not set this right and the machine has a hissy fit.

Now on to the more awkward bit. Checking to see if the micro switches for the machines boundaries haven't slipped and are clean.

I hope this kind of helps. Without being there its hard for me to guide you. Be really honest with you ive only been using this machine a year.


As for the Omicron 3000 controller manual, erm what's that haha Ive only got electrical schematics for the switching underside of the bed. To be really honest there is very little I use on the actual controller. Other than the usual start-up, and setting tool height Z Axis 0 and clearing the previous job I don't touch anything else within the menu system. Certainly a lot easier than my old Thermwood 5 Axis.
